My Phrack article, "Calling All Hackers" is finally out!

It's about what I learned going from a hacker to running a company—and how hackers can make a difference in today's world. And the shitty parts of startup culture no one talks about.

The hacker spirit breaks any spell.

All I see are powerful Kenyan women. So, use the correct poem:

"Nobody warned you
the women whose feet
you cut from running
would give birth to
daughters with wings."

Keeping up with security research is near impossible.
Vendor pitches & bombastic claims add to the noise.

ThinkstScapes fixes this.

Continuing the tweet-chain of @colinoflynn on AirTag hacking, we will look at the flash contents now!

[Colin O'Flynn @colinoflynn]

OK I didn't appreciate how jam-packed this thing is from @iFixit teardown photos. Also it's 0.3mm PCB so I'm pretty sure I broke some solder joints getting it out. Test pads are accessible w/o removing PCB so if this one isn't working will test another one.

A few months ago Cellebrite announced that they would begin parsing data from Signal in their extraction tools. It seems they're not doing that very carefully.
