@runasand @pwnallthethings We used @CorelliumHQ at the @NowSecureMobile bh training and it was great. Also use it for some personal projects :)

Consumer groups say Google misleads parents by marketing inappropriate kids' apps as child-friendly. Google said it had removed thousands of kids' apps from the Play store after finding policy violations.

Did you know that one of the appsec tools @nytimes used in its impressive mobile app location tracking investigation was @fridadotre which was developed by NowSecure researchers? #OSS #Frida https://t.co/K7WPU2jPkR

🎵 They see where you were sleeping. They know if you’re awake. Your apps, they could be bad or good, but pass a privacy law for goodness sake. 🎵

[gabriel dance @gabrieldance]

this project is an example of collaborative investigating including traditional shoe-leather (including sourcing an enormous dataset) and new-school computer-assisted reporting (finding stories in the noise). helluva team. grateful to the @nytimes for giving us the time n space.

[Matt Purdy @mattbpurdy]

They know where you’ve been sleeping. They know where you’re awake... The intrusive industry of selling your location data harvested by your cell phone apps. Fascinating and eerie piece by ⁦a a great NYT team. https://t.co/02I0fXHApG

[Natasha Singer @natashanyt]

The tech industry argues that regulation chills innovation.
But this story on smartphone location tracking by @jenvalentino @mhkeller @satariano @Aaron_Krolik @Rich_Harris and me shows how surveillance can chill human behavior

@jenvalentino @natashanyt @mhkeller @Aaron_Krolik Here's 24 hours of that data in timelapse form (rendered with WebGL, in case you wondered). Imagine the power you'd have to understand — and thereby, influence — people's behaviour if you had access to it.

[Theodore Kim @TheoTypes]

Well, judging by the lines this morning on New York’s Upper West Side, Democrats are about to sweep the House, the Senate, the School Board, the Emmys, the Oscars, the 400m freestyle, the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, and the 1978 World Series. #anecdata 🌊

[Steve Lohr @SteveLohr]

“I don’t want this to come off like we’re shaming our friends into voting.” Well, yes -- among other things. A neat piece by @natashanyt + @aaron_krolik https://t.co/1izfb7PSn1

"Happy Friday!" says Megyn Kelly, at the top of today's -- uh, previously recorded -- episode of Megyn Kelly Today.

Like all new supermarkets in Manhattan, the Trader Joe’s at Essex Crossing is underground. It’s a zoning hack – the density is “free” from a zoning perspective if it’s below grade. Construction costs are higher though so enjoy your ever-so-slightly more expensive groceries!
