mircea_popescu: The information potentially accessed from the cloud providers included names, addresses, dates of birth, phone numbers, email addresses, and gift card numbers. Gift card numbers could have been used to make unauthorized purchases."

ben_vulpes: ascii_rear: ah.
mircea_popescu: and in random tardstalk craft, "Stop posting that I am a scam or it is simple I can have my lawyer visit your site and send you a size and assist letter not to be slandering."
ben_vulpes: i don't see how this is anything other than busy work, if i'm to curate the patchdir for presses anyways.
ben_vulpes: perhaps though i would jump out of a plane with a mispacked parachute?
mircea_popescu: "by the looks of you, you already did"
ben_vulpes: plz no bully :(
ben_vulpes: ascii_rear: i recall reading in the log that your vtron's implicit pressing behavior is asciibetical up to indicated head, but i'm having trouble reconciling that with other reqs i once read: that vs press longest chain, and also that vs press all usable patches. would that accurately modify to 'longest chain up to indicated head'?

ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu: how is it disambiguated from $2, which is the dir input to diff?
mircea_popescu: it recurses through the dir, neh ?
ben_vulpes: oh because that's in the context of the awk statement and the file path is the second entry in that context?
ben_vulpes: keep in mind that awk is acting on the text output of diff, it's not recursing anywhere

adlai: ben_vulpes: (loop for a = 10 do (stuff :to a)) ?
ben_vulpes: for's rebind, with's do not?
adlai: correct, but the full picture is much more subtle
adlai: for x = init then next
adlai: leaving out next rebinds to init each time
ben_vulpes: where can i get my hands on complete documentation for the loop macro?
ben_vulpes: clhs keeps failing me

maqp: plaintext input, output, encryption, decryption, key generation and storage happens on separate computers
maqp: great <:
mircea_popescu: that was my point : that if he was going to barf over tor, which doesn't actually matter or significantly touch the scheme, might as well pick any other random unrelated item
maqp: So Pidgin is just a way to transmit ciphertexts from dbus to XMPP server
mircea_popescu: eg pigdin
mircea_popescu: but anyway, tor has a miserable reputation here, publicly due to http://trilema.com/2013/dear-guardian-stop-being-retarded/ but otherwise ancient.

maqp: it depends on how well they can weigh the threat and what track record the tools of their OPSEC have
mircea_popescu: no, they philosophically have no business there. once you've decided to settle down and reproduce, you've by that token accepted the world as is, declared your own submission to it and all that.

assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 46400 @ 0.00056019 = 25.9928 BTC [-] {5}
phf: maqp: in case of gossip there's no propagation. it's a p2p where each node, explicitly your peer, makes claims about what was said or heard elsewhere. не веришь, прими за сказку
mircea_popescu: i doubt he speaks russian.
mircea_popescu: let's walk through this maqp
maqp: sure
mircea_popescu: i wish to say "Hi" to you. my peers are X, Y and Z. i encrypt "please say Hi for me to maqp" with X, Y, Z pubkeys.
mircea_popescu: X, Y and Z see this, and if they like me enough, and if they have your pubkey, pass along the Hi to you.
mircea_popescu: basically the whole system is an implementation of "have you heard what X said", but with computers.
maqp: So are you signing the plaintext before you send it to the peer?
mircea_popescu: you are not signing anything.
mircea_popescu: the information you receive is only as good as the trustworthyness of your peers.
maqp: So a friend who holds a grudge on you can change a message?
mircea_popescu: moreover, they should.
mircea_popescu: the power of the system is exactly this : that an attacker doesn't know NOR CAN KNOW if he';s being sybilled to death or not.
maqp: so a secure communication system with no anonymity between peers, no secrecy, no integrity and no authenticity unless all peers are trustworthy
mircea_popescu: complete anonimity between peers more than one node removed ; complete secrecy outside of the node group ; no integrity or authenticity outside of the wot trust.
mircea_popescu: you know, sorta how language works.
maqp: Why couldn't this work on OTR. I have a OTR messaging with my friend and I ask them to relay a message for me to someone peer has on their contacts?
mircea_popescu: you don't know who he has in his contacts.
maqp: Okay, so basically I tell my peer that this message should at some point reach my contact
maqp: and evetually it will reach them
mircea_popescu: consider what happened in gossipd when i said the line above : "<mircea_popescu> you don't know who he has in his contacts.". buncha nodes that i know went "we heard mp say so" to their downlist
mircea_popescu: responses may or may not reach me.
mircea_popescu: a line going "hey maqp" may or may not reach you.
mircea_popescu: as far as anyone who wasn't there is concerned, this may as well be a fabrication altogether. and so on.
maqp: Why not instead have a public repository of all public keys similar to Tor
mircea_popescu: because why would i gift upon a would-be atacker that;s really a lame ass kid unable to on hios own merit secure the cost of a proper burial
maqp: then when you want to send a message to contact, you encrypt the message with the public key and ask users to pass along the ciphertext
mircea_popescu: a whole and complete list of keys ?
maqp: Why not? To have even a tiny bit of integrity you need trustworthy peer network
mircea_popescu: i don't want any integrity outside of what my wot provides.
mircea_popescu: it's probably a lie anyway.
maqp: The point is, unless you encrypt the message, anyone might have created the plaintext
mircea_popescu: exactly.
maqp: unless you sign*
mircea_popescu: this is a good thing.
maqp: you can encrypt
maqp: and you can be assured that only the recipient will read what you sent
maqp: so you get secrecy without affecting the anonymity
mircea_popescu: but i do not wish to be assured this ; moreover this "assurance" you provide is false, in substantially the same manner your idea of "infosec" misses security.
mircea_popescu: think about it. can i be assured ? maybe the person saves it in plaintext and loses the laptop
mircea_popescu: what "assured" ?
mircea_popescu: the only assurance to be had here comes from a gossipd model. where anyone could have written the plaintext, and for all anyone POORLY CONNECTED knows, they probably did.
maqp: Yeah, I'm afraid there's really no situation this could be used in
BingoBoingo: <ben_vulpes> heh anyways i just cracked xotika, picked a random feed and whaddaya know the last frame of the bloomberg video that autoplayed itself is superimposed on this poor girl's face << Known bug on Chromium using OS X and Nvidia
mircea_popescu: maqp i'll use it once it's finally done. but anyway.
maqp: Security is, and has always been about adding layers, enough layers to make attack unbeneficial to attacker
maqp: usually, expensive enough
mircea_popescu: as far as i see that's pseudosecurity. security is and always has been about being secure.
mircea_popescu: adding layers is how you end up making agincourt famous.
maqp: There is no way your system can defeat targeted SIGINT monitoring attack, where government drives within a few hundred meters and collects signals emitted by your keyboard cable.
mircea_popescu: other than by shooting on sight anyone caught doing that.
maqp: Should we abandon all security because security isn't absoulte?
maqp: The range with illuminated retro reflectors is up to 10 miles. You going to shoot anybody within that range?
mircea_popescu: well, there's no "we". but i have no interest in adding layers of sheet metal to my limo when everyone shot got shot getting in or getting out of the limo.
mircea_popescu: sure. i've been hoping to do some snuff videos of "operatives" caught with gear for years now.
maqp: Okay. I really hope you end up creating somethign cool. Just be sure to get someone elses opinion too
BingoBoingo: Ah, there's always someone trying to find an easier, softer, way.
maqp: It's just that this type of nihilistic reasoning and security t-bones with the standard infosec discourse so badly I can't offer advice.
maqp: If you're passionate about the project, I hope you dive into it, write a paper on this and prove us wrong.

maqp: me and whoever might agree with me
mircea_popescu: yes, that's kinda the point of b-a. it t-bones with standard * discourse so badly, as you put it.
phf: maqp: there's a number of existing cryptographic primitives that, depending on the fashions, are combined with each other in various obvious ways. we understand your approach, because it's obvious, and there similar existing attempts. you find our approach ~confusing~, maybe there's a hidden point that you're missing. a thread model that you're not quiet grokking.
phf: *threat
mircea_popescu: in fairness, person walks into the republican capitol. there's ALL THIS SHIT. it'd be impossible not to feel even the little bit queasy.
mircea_popescu: you fuckers've not been idle for the past years.
maqp: phf: Well, when you look at history of TLS, you'll notice that modes of operation are not obvious. My approach for TFC is first of it's kind (at least in FOSS world). My approach on a-b is to see whether CIA-triad is fulfilled. If my peer can be tricked into sending messages to infiltrator / network attack that changes a single public key etc. all security is lost
mircea_popescu: what's a cia-triad ?
maqp: confidentiality, integrity, availability
mircea_popescu: incidentally - your tinfoil suite is not at issue here. and actually to circle back to an earlier point :
mircea_popescu: you ever thought about selling i dunno, optic diode kits or something ?
maqp: It's a complicated problem. Let me quote an expert on this
assbot: One of the reasons I decided not to use optocouplers is a story I got from a fr - Pastebin.com ... ( http://bit.ly/1ojjxvS )
maqp: Basically, LEDs and phototransistors might be secure against interdiction attacks, but the problem is finding a properly functioning pair
mircea_popescu: this is the most ridiculous thing i ever heard.
maqp: I think it's more safe if people download manuals from the network, and then buy COTS hardware and build data diodes / HWRNG themselves
mircea_popescu: do you seriously imagine this is how this works ?!
maqp: What works?
mircea_popescu: one day someone calls up foxconn and is like hey guise... can i have fridge in cpu ?
mircea_popescu: at best this is a little bit of pious fraud.
maqp: Too bad we can't have a mature discussion about this
mircea_popescu: we can't possibly have a mature discussion about the silly in that dpaste.
mircea_popescu: understand : bitcoin consists of billions of dollars worth of custom run chips. "we"'d know.
mircea_popescu: anyway : it'd be better, of course, if users made their own. but users don't make their own, for many reasons, chief among which that they're lazy. do you specifically not want to market a product ?
maqp: There is absolutely no way to guarantee delivery against interdiction. So unless the device uses unbackdoorable components, then no.
maqp: Oh, that picture is classified Top Secret
maqp: so if you're emplyed by US gov it's illegal to view it
maqp: unless you have the clearance
mircea_popescu: you understand the difference between a gps beacon and some sort of tiny subvertor that'd fit inside an optodiode somehow ?
maqp: you understand the size of required logic and NSA running best fab in the world? ;)
mircea_popescu: define "best".
assbot: NSA runs best fab in world • The Register ... ( http://bit.ly/1ojkKmZ )
mircea_popescu: so you're suspicious that your mail may be subverted, but you don't suspect pravda might be ?
mircea_popescu: tell you what, the best korea register has a story about how that fatass what's his name runs the best fab in the world.
mircea_popescu: Kim Jong-un
maqp: The site uses nsa.gov as a source. If you can disprove their claims, it should make quite a scandal
maqp: But like I said, all the best. It's 3am I'm off. Night everyone!
mircea_popescu: i'll just wait for reality to disprove their claims instead. heck, they're still making the best invisibly-visible aircraft-submarine scooba diving platform, or whatever that was.
phf: ;;later tell maqp if i were you i'd split tfc.pdf into separate papers. HWRNG, data diode communication, tfc otp, tfc cev and "rationale", the last one to include all the superfluous NSA shoutouts
gribble: The operation succeeded.
phf: ;;later tell maqp on a cursory inspection i couldn't figure out how the protocol decides between otp and cev, how those are identified on the wire, etc. is that up to the user?
gribble: The operation succeeded.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 26850 @ 0.00056963 = 15.2946 BTC [+] {3}
phf: also having read the paper, i stand by my words
phf: for extra lulz paper includes proof of otp perfect secrecy taken from a coursera cryptography course
phf: it is also filled with the kind of things that will give asciilifeform a severe twitch: guy takes hardware rng, runs it on raspberry pi gpio, whiteness the result, and then xors in /dev/urandom. you know, for the kids!

mircea_popescu: phf internet produces necessarily a mixed bag. still, the guy correctly identified a workable airgap scheme on his own, should count for something.
danielpbarron: he kinda reminds me of that dude who showed up in #eulora talking about how things are done in gaming or whatever
mircea_popescu: nah, that dude was annoying.
BingoBoingo: It's things like these and the /. comments that reveal's everyone's tolerance for anthropology
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo dude i just laughed hysterically at the korean derp on horse pic.
mircea_popescu: you did this deliberately didn't you ?
BingoBoingo: What. Preet got a picture. I figured I needed to get a picture for Kim when he tested the new bomb.
BingoBoingo pretty sure it's a shoop. Kim's kinda a ham.
mircea_popescu: just cuz of the horseback meme.
BingoBoingo: Gotta keep the memes alive
BingoBoingo: Anyways the picuture was found on the internet wilds, likely shooped by Kim himself
