Car technology in 2025:
> Cameras on every inch of car
> Everything's computer
> Hybrid gas or electric
> Enhanced safety features

Car technology in 1995:
> Manual roll down windows
> Built in ashtray for cigarettes
> Box of death, in event of car accident everyone dies

Reminder that most places in the United States didn't have seat belt laws up until the 1990s.

Most* places didn't implement drinking and driving laws until the 1970s

tldr 1960s you could drive drunk, no seat belt, in a metal box of death.

Hello,

Yes, I am aware of the nerds who claim to have compromised that Russian nuclear power plant, or whatever.

I'm monitoring the situation (I don't know what the fuck I'm looking at), if anything interesting happens I'll post about it (maybe, depends on mood)

Thanks,

> nerds say compromised nuclear power plant
> everyone yappin about some cryptocurrency

wtf is this shit? is this a crypto shill thingy? or a ICS/SCADA compromise? both?

Pro malware nerd tip: you can tell when the malware IOCs are shared from ESET because, for reasons literally nobody understands, all of their IOCs are uppercase.

What does this mean? Nothing. It doesn't matter. But they're the only vendor that does it.

Big drama today in the Tor community.

Conrad Rockenhaus, a Tor operator based out of Michigan, United States, was arrested in 2020 after refusing to cooperate with the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation

Rockenhaus, a disabled United States military veteran, ran the fastest Tor node in the United States. He was approached sometime in late 2019 when the FBI requested he allow them arbitrary access to his exit node and allow them to decrypt traffic. He denied their request.

Subsequently, in February, 2020 his home was raided. He was arrested for violating the CFAA (Computer Fraud and Abuse Act). It was alleged that he was a disgruntled ex-employee causing problems at his former place of employment.

Interestingly, to "help resolve the matter", law enforcement requested he decrypt his Tor exit node to prove his innocence (???). After he refused, he was held in a pre-trial detention cell for over 3 years. He was denied bail after law enforcement stated Mr. Rockenhaus used Linux to "access the dark web" and he was "not complying" and not allowing them access to this Tor exit node.

After Mr. Rockenhaus' wife filed an official complaint, and Mr. Rockenhaus was miraculously released, he was raided by the United States Marshal Fugitive Task Force TWO TIMES(???).

They took him out his home, threw him to the ground, beat him, smashed his windows, and threatened to murder his animals.

They are still requesting Mr. Rockenhaus allow them to access his Tor exit node. Mr. Rockenhaus still has not granted them that privilege.

All of this has been captured on home security camera footage. Additionally, his wife has released all court documents.

Chat, do you think the United States government would bully someone for not getting their way? Do you think the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation is capable of making someones life hell for not allowing them to invade the privacy of others?

Videos, court documents, etc. can be found here. His wife has asked Reddit Tor nerds for help:

NOTE: Nerds found more court documents. Mr. Rockenhaus did violate the CFAA in 2014.

tl;dr fbi requested decrypt, he says no, but it turns out he did do something wrong (maybe?). did fbi have card up their sleeve? or is this unrelated? is anime good?

Not even memeing, I've seen people sentenced to prison for longer periods of time for far less severe crimes.

Shout out Pompompurin's legal team. Bro has that A1 salute defense attorney, or something.

Chat, is this true?

🚨 BREAKING 🚨

Today United States Federal Bureau of Investigation Director, Kash Patel, stated in a congressional hearing that they find no evidence Jeffrey Epstein trafficked people.

However, Mr. Patel did confirm Old McDonald had a farm. He also confirmed he said E-I-E-I-O

People keep asking where the rest of the promised kitty cat picture collection is. The answer is I've been bamboozled and forsaken.

A family-friend asked if I could introduce their teen to cybersecurity. I agreed, but in a limited capacity, because I thought it wasn't a good idea to let a complete noob deal with active malware.

I decided to introduce them to boredom. I placed the entire kitty cat picture on an external hard drive. I told them I'd pay them in cash when they finished sorting out the contents on it and successfully removed all non-kitty cat pictures.

They were excited. They said they'd have it all done in a day. They seemed eager to help me more with vx-underground and doing more malware stuff.

Anyway, it's been like, 2 weeks, or something, and bro hasn't done shit. I asked what's up with the cat picture collection and they said, "oh my bad bro, I've been busy. I'll get to it when I can".

Dawg, your Mom told me all you've been doing is playing Roblox with the homies 😭 Your ass is NOT busy

I'll get the hard drive back from their Mommy and I'll get back to work on the kitty cat picture archive. I'm gonna have to tell their Mom their teenager is a BUM and isn't cut out for this malware game.

The kids heart is in the right place. They're interested in computers and cybersecurity. But bro isn't locked in. Their mind is focused on Roblox and their crush in math class. Maybe they'll lock in later.

Unrelated, but the fuckin' kid keeps saying, "six seven" and waving their hands in pseudo gang signs. I don't know what it means. I just stare at them like this:

Wtf I went to nappy noo noo city and woke up to everyone yappin about another NPM supply chain attack
