I'm still processing FX's passing. It'll be a while.

Remembering memories with my friend Felix ‘FX’ Lindner @41414141, hacker extraordinaire with a huge heart, who passed away last week. Whether in Berlin, San Francisco, or Sao Paulo, hanging out with FX was never dull. FX was prophiled in @phrack #68 phrack.org/issues/68/2

Hello, World! Welcome back! I have new blog :-) tracesofhumanity.org/hello-w…

Hello, World!

...or welcome back! I’ve been silent for the last 7 years and now I’m trying to resurface with this new blog :-) Some of you might remember my previous work on Qubes OS1, a paranoid-security OS,...

I feel honored & stunned that organizers of the Chaos Communication Camp 2023 named one of the streets with my name❤️ (Especially that other streets were named after some true legends!) At the same time, I'd like officially announce I'm not dead yet, nor even retired from IT😜

I admit though, I've already moved past the itsec, embracing a new field I could perhaps describe as "Knowledge Security"... I'm dying to write more about it - an endeavour I've been working on for the past 3+ years - but it's still not ready... Hope to write more soon! 😃

Yet, I don't feel like today's Twitter is the best channel for sharing thoughts & updates to my work :-/ I just feel strong distaste for any ruthless concentration of power. So, I've signed up for BSky, which seems like a reasonable alternative, and I hope to try it instead :-)

Wildland makes it easier for users to decide how their information is secured. Why? @rootkovska: “If you are a reductionist and believe that you are essentially a thread of information, it’s easy to understand that information is really what matters”. tinyurl.com/4zyus8rd

Wildland 0.1 Release Meetup - As it happened

On the 24th of June, despite some pretty wild weather with a thunderstorm hanging in the air, around 30 people gathered at Nowy Teatr in Warsaw for Wildland’s 0.1 Release Meetup.

If you use @signalapp there's probably no excuse not to donate.. (and it takes about 12 seconds using Apple Pay; donations via crypto also available)

So you want to ditch WhatsApp? You convinced ur friends to install Signal? You even thought them how to export your chats from WhatsApp? Only these chats now in some unapproachable ZIP file, stored somewhere, not accessible from the New Chat App... Pity it's not like email, eh?

I think this shows the PITA with chat apps today is _not_ lack of common network protocol (like SMTP), but lack of agreed *storage* formats/conventions. If we could enforce stronger separation between the apps logic vs data storage, we would be able to switch apps easier.
