It's wild to me that Tesla has been publicly doing this for ten years and almost no one has realized that independently controlled behind the meter batteries will do to peaking thermal plants what Uber did to taxis. Every day I'm still hearing that more solar and wind will
Tonight, the Powerwall fleet in California dispatched 345MW to the grid during a Virtual Power Plant event, reducing the need for fossil-fueled peaking plants

Rant / opinion DdoS attacks can be difficult to attribute especially if it's DdoS-as-a-Service. Additionally, accurate attribution of any offensive cyber operation in mere hours in low. The likelihood of a state sponsored group performing a DdoS attack on an American social

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians. I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor. My time as Governor taught me to

Telegram may start “moderating private chats.” This seems like a decision that would only be possible in a non-E2E messenger.

Pavel Durov said this week that the company would moderate content.

So by all means be angry that France is using weird legal powers to arrest Durov. It feels legitimately bad. But don’t lionize these people. They knew exactly what the stakes were and they could have done real things to protect their vulnerable users. They just didn’t.

You can believe that Telegram was malicious in doing this. You can assume they were just negligent. I don’t care: the outcomes are all really, really bad.

I hope that the arrest of Pavel Durov does not lead to him or Telegram being held up as some hero of privacy. Telegram has consistently acted to collect huge amounts of unnecessary private data on their servers, and their only measure to protect it was “trust us.”

Telegram has full access to all of the content of group chats and regular one-to-one chats due to lack of end-to-end encryption. Their opt-in secret chats use homegrown end-to-end encryption with weaknesses. Deleting the content from the app likely won't remove all copies of it.

“patient intelligence campaign that invested more resources into subverting him than anyone invested into his project”
Briefly, I want to address the issue of who is to blame. Easy — the people behind the attack. Lasse, the maintainer of xz, was the target of a patient intelligence campaign that invested more resources into subverting him than anyone invested into his project.
