Many users who need a significant degree of privacy will also be excluded, as JavaScript is a major fingerprinting vector. Users of the Tor Browser are encouraged to stick to the “Safest” security level. That security level disables dangerous features such as: Just-in-time compilation JavaScript SVG MathML Graphite font rendering automatic media playback Even if it were purely a choice in user hands, I’d still feel inclined to respect i....

I was curious to try out an Oru Kayak (which folds up for storage), and some friends kindly let me borrow theirs. It was easy going heading south with the wind, but going back north again the kayak sometimes had a mind of its own.

Often times I find a interesting or useful project on Github that is abandoned and has some issues. Then I hope that someone already forked the repository and continued working on it. To find a fresh fork, I had to go to the Insights-tab in the repository, click on “Forks” and then look at all the listed forks to see if there is an active one. Tedious! Here are two projects that try to fix this: Fork Freshness ‘ results look nice - t....

Mullvad’s recent audit by Assured AB was a bit concerning to me. Fail2ban and user-writable scripts running as root is not the sort of thing I’d expect in a service whose only job is to provide a secure relay. Avoiding and guarding root should be Sysadmin 101 material. I recommend any amateur Linux admins read audit reports like this. While some low-priority recommendations are a but cargo-cultish, most advice is pretty solid. Frankl..

Yes, and..." is a concept from improv comedy that means to affirm and build on what others do. Beyond improv, it has been popularized as a pragmatic approach to positivity - say "yes" to validate and encourage others to engage, and say "and" to be sure to engage yourself. But what about "yes people" who blindly endorse poor decisions ? And what about the need to say no to manage your time ? To handle these cases, "yes, and..." could....

在 Kotlin 协程以前我们在使用 Retrofit 的时候一般会结合 RxJava 一起使用，通过 Single 来表示一个已经创建的请求。 @GET ( "/info" ) fun requestUserInfo (): Single < BaseEntry < UserInfo >> .. . api . requestUserInfo () . subscribeOn ( Schedulers . io ()) . observeOn ( AndroidSchedulers . mainThread ()) . subscribe ({ //... },{ //... }) Single 在 RxJava 中表示只包含一个事件的流，所以用它来充当网络请求也是相对合理的。 不过既然是 HTTP 网络请求，那么返回值肯定是只有一次或者....

A living document where I will be putting information about search index implementations as I learn about them. So there are a few talked about ways to search across content or build an index that I am aware of. Lets discuss each in term with its advantages and disadvantages Brute Force Brute Force, note that this isn’t an index strategy per say, but worth discussing anyway. Assuming you can get the entire corpus you are search into RAM..

Preface Threat modelling provides important context to security and privacy advice. Measures necessary to protect against an advanced threat are different from those effective against unsophisticated threats. Moreover, threats don’t always fall along a simple one-dimensional axis from “simple” to “advanced”. I appreciate seeing communities acknowledge this complexity. When qualifying privacy recommendations with context, I think we shoul....

Arrived shortly after midday on a hot Saturday with clear skies. Unsurprisingly the parking lot was pretty much full. The short road that leads up to the parking lot is gravel, and has quite a lot of pot holes, but nothing insurmountable. I’ve visited Gold Creek Pond numerous times in winter, when it is beneath a blanket of snow, but never before in summer. It is still just as scenic as always, and well worth the visit.

We arrived about 9am on a Saturday. At first the parking lot looked full, but it’s quite long, and turned out there were actually still a lot of spaces. The start of the trail can be hard to spot from a distance. If in doubt, keep walking towards the end of the parking lot with the restroom, and you’ll soon see the trailhead on your left. There is only a short climb up to the old railway line, after which the rest of the hike is unsurpris..

Following the recent SCOTUS ruling, many have been trying to publish resources to help people find reproductive healthcare. They often wish to do this anonymously, to avoid doxxing. There’s no shortage of guides on how to stay anonymous online. I recommend using the Tor Browser in a disposable Whonix VM. The Whonix Wiki has a good guide to anonymous publishing. Few guides cover stylometric fingerprinting. Stylometric fingerprinting ....

I wasn’t planning on going to any sled shows this year, but got invited to the RAP Ferreira show last night by a friend, and I’m very glad I went! What an excellent show. If anyone is in Winnipeg tomorrow (25th), I’d definetly take the time to go see him perform at the Good Will Social Club.

Using visual cryptography I wanted to created two simple metal keyrings that when overlaid displayed some text. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_cryptography and the original paper https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/BFb0053419 by Naor and Shamir for more information. They make use of 6 ‘shares’ (6, 2×2 patterns), currently I’m only making use of the two diagonal shares. To do this I made […]

I’m thinking about coining a term to reflect a non-toxic alternative to “search engine optimization” (SEO). Working name: “agent optimization”. MDN has SEO guidelines because people often find MDN articles through general-purpose search engines. I noticed that a subset of their advice is directly beneficial to readers. For example: imagine two pages have almost the same content (e.g. pages on the width and height CSS properties). Near....

For application security, the shift left strategy is something that every enterprise is embracing today, which essentially means putting the security controls in earlier stages of development. While most tools can only solve some of the problems, Snyk does it all — making it my preferred tool for shifting left.
