❗️ The Dutch intelligence service AIVD is warning people not to hold confidential conversations in or near their cars, saying the microphones in many modern vehicles can technically be switched on remotely to eavesdrop.
Some state actors can request car data from carmakers and other companies or hack in to get it themselves, the agency says.
It advises skipping wireless charging and Bluetooth or Wi-Fi pairing, using a USB data blocker and not taking a car with an external camera to a sensitive location.

❗️ A San Francisco hackathon rejected a former Israeli intelligence Unit 8200 engineer, telling him it didn't want Israel's military to make participants' pagers, phones and laptops "explode in their faces."
Organiser Mostapha Benhenda pointed to the 2024 pager attacks in Lebanon and later told the former Israeli intelligence member Adam Levi there was "no way to know" he wasn't involved.

The CIA and West German intelligence secretly bought Swiss encryption maker Crypto AG in 1970, turning the machines governments paid to protect their secrets into a way to read them.
Those governments had no idea the machines were rigged to read their messages.
In the 1980s, Crypto devices accounted for roughly 40% of the foreign government messages the NSA decoded.
The CIA didn't sell the company until 2018 and called the operation "the intelligence coup of the century."

Uber's security chief Joe Sullivan told the FTC under oath in 2016 how Uber was securing customer data, and ten days later he learned hackers had stolen records on 57 million riders and drivers.
Instead of telling the FTC, which was already investigating Uber over an earlier breach, Uber paid the hackers $100,000 in bitcoin through its bug bounty programme and kept the theft quiet for a year.
Sullivan was convicted in 2022.
