Hey look, the lawn darts are now AI-controlled.

Google/Waymo + Uber/Otto comes to mind here with Anthony Levandowski.

I think there's a middle ground of people who just are not interested in building or upgrading a gaming computer (or just don't like their typical form factor in the ready to go ou…

Did you just stop scrolling at the first group of people to come and make this comment?

You can easily burn through hundreds of dollars researching one or two relatively small court cases. I don't think you should be indigent or go to the courthouse/public library to …

Stalking has a specific definition that I'm not sure would apply here. Your behavior on the internet is certainly tracked by corporations. Your phone's radio addresses were (are) t…

No, it's not. You are not protected from a private company that owns ALPRs as part of the 4th amendment. The government purchasing data from 3rd parties (the third-party doctrine) …

> That's not what I'm seeing. My mom always wanted Google to just answer questions, and now ChatGPT can. She uses it enough in her daily life that she bought a subscription. Remind…

> A lower resolution tracking is still tracking though. Spatial resolution is low/fixed doesn’t change the fact that I was tagged using the personally identifiable plate and my mov…

I think the question may instead be: > do you have the right to not have [a private company] tracking your movements and keeping logs of everywhere you’ve been for months or years,…

While Carpenter v. United States (2018) somewhat changed the rules regarding the "purchase" of third-party data in the context of an investigation, it seems like the ALPRs do not v…

The L-Taraval, at least historically, was not reliable between downtown and the outer sunset (past Sunset Blvd).

Any idea if/when this would be coming to GHE? I know the release cycle is way different but curious about your thoughts.

I miss the Phabricator review UI so much.

Have they even filed the forms yet or is this another instance of "let's tweet a thing and let some of the public believe Y (new) while X (old) is actually still true"?

Historically, availability was very different between the two countries when we're specifically talking about purchasing SIMs for questionable activity. Physically acquiring the SI…

Not a direct answer to your reuqestion re: questionable activity, but for me it's more about ease of access. A SIM in the U.S. is significantly more difficult to acquire than a SIM…

> The 1994 paper (freely available at https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc1341727/m2/ ...) is actually about proper E2EE. That paper is about PKI-based session setup f…

It wasn't coined, it was reused. It historically meant things that were encrypted from the client to the server, e.g. SSH, SSL, TLS, etc. RFC 4949 (Internet Security Glossary, Vers…

I'll take the hit on the loose phrasing regarding the SSL paper "outlining plans". That was a poor description of mine of an analysis paper and wasn't a good example of the point I…

> No, before that it was simply not a term, except in some obscure radio protocol > no one really used the E2EE term before it got the current meaning It most certainly was a term …

Well respectfully your recollection is missing lots of references by people that were "knowledgeable in cryptography". You can easily find these references in the literature, often…

The modern usage of E2EE definitely means that "the server cannot access it". That's the meat of this entire discussion. While you are technically correct in a network topology sen…

It was pretty common to call client-side encryption/SSL "end to end encryption" among network engineers who were analyzing data flowing through their networks[0] as well as those w…

I think part of the problem is that prior to WhatsApp's E2EE implementation in like 2014, TLS was very often called "End to End Encryption" as the ends were Client and Server/Servi…
