My love. Till we see each other again, I know you are here with me. I hear your voice. Our son will know you and I am convinced he will be a mini you. I am grateful we have so many friends all over the world who will teach our son how to hack and more importantly who the real Kevin Mitnick was. Our little one …our legacy.

Microsoft needs to disclose how the MSA consumer account signing keys were stolen. It’s creating a unique problem of distrust in customer reliance on cloud services. This is on Microsoft . At present the explanation is not good enough. Mail Items accessed is throwing up a wall to conducting proper DFIR investigations when most orgs are on E3. This isn’t security, this is corporate greed. It’s beyond wrong. reuters.com/technology/micro…

I recall the famous Trump “sharpie” hurricane projection chart being one of the items recalled from MaraLago. Is climate control by nukes a classified technology?
The NSA keeps its stash of working Enigmas in a warehouse a few aisles over from the Ark of the Covenant. (Aside: many years ago, Fred Grampp had fun trolling the NSA by calling its public phone line and asking to buy a war-surplus Enigma… They claimed not to know what one was.)

I was going through 42nd St Station at Times Sq the day I heard Douglas Adams died, looked up at the wall and went Aha! Today I realized that Elon Musk should probably buy my IP because he understands how the non Euclidean layer makes this bigger than Meta.
I gotta say, you're either another old-timer or you're really up on your Usenet history…
My uucp connection to kremvax hasn't been working the past few days. Anyone else having problems?

Hey @Apple, 2G is an outdated and insecure technology! Google just gave us the option to turn it off in our phones and now it's your turn! eff.org/deeplinks/2022/01/vi…

"My get rich quick scheme involves burning books" is truly a phrase for our time.
On Jan. 6, danger signs were in full view, including clashes that morning among pro-Trump demonstrators and police at the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. The red flags did not trigger increased security, underscoring how unprepared police were. wapo.st/3GDYLQz

There is also the subtle issue of how they saw the SSN#s, by doing "view source" on the website, peeling off the top layer of how it looks to the underlying raw code of the page. This seems like nefarious witchcraft to muggles.
