Reality of our days:
1. I am sitting on a set of vulns (4+) that allows me to remotely take over a consumer home automation device I have (3+ diff ways).
2. The vendor doesn't only serve consumers, but also critical infra (announced partnerships include pharma manufacturing plants, airport logistics, hospitals, etc) across various locations in Europe and the US (not the same product line, ofc, so maybe moot).
3. Claude and Astra refuse to help me explore even my own device, so now I'm using Chinese hosted models for investigating.
4. The vendor (with a revenue of $0.75B) does not maintain any security disclosure practice whatsoever, nor does respond to emails.
So, to recap, I need to outsource vulnerability hunting of (potentially, I don't know) critical western infrastructure to Chinese models, because the western models refuse; and the vendor doesn't give a shit. Fun timeline.
PS: The vendor is Swiss.
KYC, Kill Your Customer, is a waste of resources, doesn’t catch criminals, and is dangerous due to data leaks.
The approach where every EU citizen is suspected of money laundering unless he regularly proves otherwise is wrong approach. Increasing control from customer level down to transaction level is even worse.
Trying to protect oneself from data leaks is not creating value. Just time consuming.
While SpaceX was throttling Ukrainian interceptor-drone terminals on the ground in mid-October, SpaceX’s STARLINK-35856 and a SpaceX-lobbied FCC license condition (DA 23-797, Condition 16) pinned a U.S.-cleared radar satellite (ICEYE-X36) in orbit, holding it in place while Russia’s COSMOS 2612 sprinted >380 km and braked into a <1 km lock for 42+ hours.
For the bloggers snooping for VCs in our inbox "discovering" that the 0.401 km (400.741 m) Oct 15 alert is a public-catalog SGP4 calculation: our published table literally labels it "Public GP Vintage 1 (Public GP Baseline)." The story isn't a third-party web display. It's:
1. Public catalog (0.401 / 0.711 km) vs. SpaceX’s own exported operator ephemerides (1.925-2.003 km, >15 km vector split at TCA).
2. SpaceX’s April 24, 2023 FCC intervention imposing Condition 16 on ICEYE US.
3. Zero Starlink maneuver while X36 was boxed into a sub-kilometer Russian hold.
Our brief lists private SpaceX portal/CDM logs as OPEN falsifiers. Ask SpaceX for them, though it would be awkward if non-public claims contradicted SpaceX's publicly disclosed ephemerides.
And to all the defense-tech VCs and AI devs suddenly following this account: We don't build models for engagement or chase narratives. We built a market-structure and sovereign-risk engine, ran the raw orbital, regulatory, and commodity ledgers through it, and followed what the machine surfaced.
Model IV drops next, proving the Russian intercept was feasible only inside the SpaceX pin window, and tracing the payoff across Russian refinery recovery, E-Ring conflicts, and defense-contract capture. @streetwiseprof

@andersson_rep Paras tarina n. 10 vuoden takaa, kun sanoin haluavani perehtyä varainhoitotalon "commodities" tarjontaan ja neuvoja alkoi livenä googlaamaan mitä se tarkoittaa 😇
Varainhoito on mielenkiintoinen pisnes.
Siinä 20 miljoonan omaisuuden luonut yrittäjä tulee S-mersullaan ja raksavehkeet niskassa Helsingin keskustaan kuuntelemaan rahanteko-neuvoja henkilöltä joka tulee duuniin metrolla, asuu velkaisessa kaksiossa ja ottaa 3.900€ + bonarit.
Tragic irony of course that the Bitcoin haters get debanked
They could have spent the last few years building and spreading unstoppable financial infrastructure but instead they let their ideologies blind them
Miten miljoona tuhlataan? Antamalla tietysti se valtiolle 🌚
Luulisi FIVAlla olevan häiijympiä talousrikollisia kohteena, kuin kansankapitalisti.. Innolla odotan, mistä tässä on kyse
History will show that no one did more to promote left-wing ideas than Donald Trump, and no one did more to advance the Palestinian cause than Benjamin Netanyahu.
Cyberattack on France’s national blood service (EFS) via its refrigeration contractor Coolworld. Hackers reset freezers keeping blood donor samples at -30°C to a target of 110°C. The thing that stopped it from destructive impact was an on-call technician who noticed the temperatures going up. Frozen plasma intended for transfusion was stored there too. Fortunately nothing was destroyed. This was a cyberattack on a sensitive layer of healthcare. From frozen peas to boiling plasma in three weeks...?
Helsingin kaupungilla on noin 200 viestinnän työntekijää. Suunnilleen yhtä paljon kuin Miltton Oy:llä koko yrityksessään.
Silti Helsinki ei saanut viestintäsuunnitelmaa tehtyä omin voimin, vaan osti sen Milttonilta 30 000 eurolla.
Miksiköhän verotus on niin kireää?
do you realize how insane this is?
- we can solve crimes
- we can locate people who need rescuing
- we can expose fake location claims
and the gov can spy on us even more :)
Update: I was correct. Pwn AI nerds don't have elite ball knowledge and don't know anything about goop
As is tradition, it was something stupid.
Stay in your lane, dorks. This is goop city
