Salt Typhoon Hack Shows There's No Security Backdoor That's Only For The "Good Guys"
At EFF we’ve long noted that you cannot build a backdoor that only lets in good guys and not bad guys. Over the weekend, we saw another example of this.

Not done this for a while, so does anyone want anything stupid scribbled?
Usual rules apply, shout and I might draw it, simpler things more likely to get done, nothing that would constitute a paid commission and take food from my table.

My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments.

It's an inflection point, a phase change, a new ability unlocked in creative ADS-B spoofing. We've seen primitive vector art before, but as far as I know never raster spoofing. (This isn't RF spoofing, this is sending bad data over the network to an aggregator.)

It's embarrassing watching news channels 'Going Live' to get footage of Trump announcing members of his new cartel as it happens, only for it to be an endless stream of him burbling about how great he is. Cut back to the studio.
