    Kiwi it’s interesting not a security hardened Chromium fork, it is the only one to offer immediate access to browser extensions.

    Should probably only use it the way you would use a Gecko browser, that is sparingly and when you need use of specific extensions for whatever reason.


  • Any remotelink is vulnerable to jamming attacks, but those aren’t novel issues.

    There are many ways to mitigate and bypass the jamming attacks, including operating different control links, or multiple different bands, hopping, etc.

    This is also where “AI” or advanced algorithms might come in, and enable the platform to continue on to its objectives unaided, or initiate some sort of failsafe to regain communication links, etc.

    On a somewhat related note, this is similar to why 6th gen aircraft will include stealthy manned platforms, that are in close proximity to command and control various drone wingman platforms, as opposed to being remotely piloted from a Nevada Airbase.









  • Basically this data included customer details on 36 million customers, and Xfinity only has 32 million active customers…

    They’ve already admitted it includes all plaintext customer details (names, address, last 4 SSN, etc.), and their password hashes, but no info on what hashing function was used to make them, or if they were salted.

    This is just what they’ve admitted. Who wants to place bets on whether they also got all the customer data that shouldn’t be legal to collect, but is e.g. browsing habits, traffic analysis, user/household metadata?
