Welcome to #CryptoWeek at @Cloudflare!

Kicking it off with an introduction by me: blog.cloudflare.com/crypto-week-20…

The Distributed Web Gateway (starring IPFS): blog.cloudflare.com/distributed-we…

IPFS Gateway Validator extension: blog.cloudflare.com/e2e-integrity/

Stay tuned every day for new announcements!
You can now access anything on IPFS at cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipfs/<hash>, or you can point any hostname to an IPFS hash and serve that content through HTTPS.

For example, here's a full, searchable mirror of Stack Exchange:
…sec.stackexchange.cloudflare-ipfs.com
If you set up DNSSEC, then users can run our new IPFS Gateway Validator browser extension to make sure they're getting your content with end-to-end integrity validation. Valid sites are highlighted by this beautiful blue fingerprint icon by @kkblinder. addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/…

Crypto 2018 has affiliated events this year, which is fun. I’m currently attending the Quantum-safe Cryptography for Industry event, a big focus of mine lately. crypto.iacr.org/2018/affevents…

@Cloudflare is a sponsor of Crypto this year, so come see me if you want a webcam cover!
We just heard from Adrian Stanger from the NSA. There is high confidence in the NIST process and no plans to invest in QKD. Algorithm recommendations (key agreement and signatures) to be made around 2023-24. There are no plans to replace AES-256 or SHA2-384.
Brian LaMacchia of @MSFTResearch gives an overview of the cryptographic algorithm transitions we’ve gone through so far in the 21st century.

DNS interception and manipulation is real and pervasive. This paper is a great motivator for the deployment of encrypted DNS and DNSSEC. #usesec18

Here’s a website built by the researchers to help reveal which DNS resolver you are using.

The FCC's 5G FAST Plan

@drawandstrike @ThomasWictor @HNIJohnMiller @catesduane @rising_serpent @_ImperatorRex_ @Debradelai @GodlessNZ @almostjingo @tracybeanz @MAGALisaHartz

fcc.gov/document/fccs-…
Under Chairman Pai, the FCC is pursuing a comprehensive strategy to Facilitate America’s Superiority in 5G Technology (the 5G FAST Plan).

The Chairman’s strategy includes three key components:

(1) pushing more spectrum into the marketplace;

(2) updating infrastructure policy;
and
(3) modernizing outdated regulations.

Spectrum

The FCC is taking action to make additional spectrum available for 5G services.

High-band: The FCC has made auctioning high-band, millimeter-wave spectrum a priority.

Let's start our #GlobalEChats on #music!

Among our #discussion topics: 1. #Stakeholders in music and what happens to them? 2. #Production of music 3. #Consumption of music 4. New #technology out there!
Firstly, let's talk about how scary #technology and #advancement can be to #music.

Some stats:
The US lost $12.5 billion a year in total sales due to pirated music.

71k jobs were lost; $2.7bn in annual earnings; $1.1bn of that would have been earned by the industry.
Source:

sheffieldav.com/education/how-…

But as with any #tech #disruption, there are always negative externalities.

In the #music industry, most of the bad press came from #piracy. Sites like Napster and P2P torrenting were rampant back in the day.

This is in many ways a restatement of the Mamet Principle, but it shows that at the upper echelons of leftist thought, the pretense of ignorance is used in a highly strategic manner to achieve "social justice "goals. This can and will be demonstrated by deconstructing #Parkland.
The point is that the advancement of the illogical argument is only stupid on the surface, and this is in fact a logical pattern of viral malice.

Hanlon's Razor ("Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.") can be and IS weaponized everywhere.
Hanlon's Razor fails because "adequately" is easily spoofed. All manner of deceptions can be used to make an intelligent process return a wrong value for "adequately". Science works because nothing remains "adequate". Every theory of gravity falls to a better one, eventually.

New #PA Congressional map is pretty much the best one Democrats could have hoped for. At least 2 pickups in neutral environment, likely ability to win 11 in current D+6 environment. Post coming
PA redraw creates map that is almost entirely drawn from scratch. Huge shifts from 2016 plan all over the place. Dems favored to win 9 seats there in almost any national environment.
(big swings mostly from renumbering, but aggregate differences are clear)

1/ I'm walking around lower Manhattan half lost. I know what I'm looking for - it's close, but coming out of the subway has me turned around. I've never been here before, it's literally my first time in New York City...

It's October 19th, 1987. I'm 18 years-old.
2/ What I'm looking for is the New York Stock Exchange. After nurturing dreams all through high school of working on "Wall St," my aim - of all things - is just to see the NYSE. Now that I'm here, it's all I can think about.
3/ Still confused, I'm lured to the WTC mainly because it's famous. I recognize it from TV/movies, and my adolescent mind infers a connection to the stock market b/c of the famous Comex scene in Trading Places. I don't yet understand commodities & stocks have different exchanges.
