The discussion on if Huawei should power 5G networks misses the point. Most European service providers have long lost control over their networks. Banning Huawei will do nothing to change that. Instead, providers should focus on regaining technical skills
berthub.eu/articles/posts…
It is remarkable how the current debate would make one think that picking a specific vendor for 5G would suddenly change things. Instead, most service providers have already outsourced their operations to companies far away. /cc @shashj @cryptoron
This articles does not argue for simply picking Huawei for 5G. It does however argue that if we truly care about our privacy, about the availability of our communication systems even in times of conflict, and about our digital autonomy, much much more needs to be done.
By the way, if you are into this kind of thing, I can recommend giving @HuaweiFacts a follow - it is a fascinating mix of sophisticated propaganda and exceptionally tone deaf statements. Very educational either way - as long as you realize what you are following.

Fellow geeks - if after all the Galileo outage stuff you feel the need to go down the wire and receive every GPS/Galileo/GLONASS/Baidu/whatever health message, I can recommend the "NAVILOCK 62524 GPS". It has a stonking chipset (u-blox 8) which delivers the goods. 1/5
There is a huge PDF with full details on how to get the chipset to emit what you need, find it here: u-blox.com/sites/default/… 2/5
To get you going, there is the free u-blox 'u-center' tool which, although Windows only, runs under Wine and it helps to get to know the chipset. The device itself is very Linux friendly. 3/5

Mozilla confirms it will default Firefox DNS to @Cloudflare DNS based on an "Ok, got it" style notification, but will include a button to not accept that. Some further details & nuance can be found in this statement:mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/doh/p…
Note that if Mozilla likes your ISP and it also offers DoH, Firefox may offer the user the option of continuing to use that ISP DNS. But you have to be on the Mozilla "approved list":
Further context on if default handover of your DNS to a third party is a good idea can be found on blog.powerdns.com/2019/02/07/the…

I suggest ignoring this thread on EDNS Flag Day. Reading it will leave you misinformed.
DNS has two kinds of servers: Authoritative and Caching/Resolving servers. Back in 1999, an extension to DNS was defined called EDNS. It was then also defined how any kind of server that receives a question with EDNS on it should respond. In 1999! 2/
The problem now is that some authoritative servers (that host domain name details), go crazy when you send them an EDNS query. They provide no response, a crazy response or sometimes a confusing response ("I support EDNS, but not that kind"). 3/

1. Without going into too much detail, it is worth noting that Iran (or Persia) was an imperial power during many periods in its history. In fact, at the time of Alexander the Great's invasion of Persia, the Persian Empire was the greatest the world had ever seen.
2. This imperial past is necessary to understand Iranian policy. There are two main drivers of Iranian policy in the region: its belief that it is the guardian of Shia Islam but also a great nation with an imperial past (and thus entitled to weild influence over other nations)

The UK govn is set to award #Huawei access to it’s 5G network. This will be a mistake of epic proportions and is based on a complete inability to understand what Huawei is and the motivation of the CCP.

My piece in @foreignpolicy today:

foreignpolicy.com/2019/11/04/joh…

1/12
The UK govn claims Huawei is ahead in 5G tech than any other company and it would be limited to only the nonessential parts of UK comms.

The fundamental problem with Huawei is that it is not a regular company as we understand them. EVERYTHING it does goes back to Beijing

2/12
ALL Chinese companies MUST defer to govn narratives (see ##Taiwan and Tibet)— and if the West hadn’t understood that dynamic, look at what is happening in #Xinjiang.

But the recent #NBA scandal in US should have been a serious wake up call for things to come

1. Life is about change. We change jobs, school, how we look, teachers, neighborhood and so on. God is always doing new things in your life, and if you don't constantly adjust, you might be praying about something God has already done. #Change #PreparingForYourNextSeason
2. For God to move you from season to season, you will have to go through change. All through the Bible from the earliest days of Abraham, you will discover that the people that enjoyed God's blessings were the ones that opened their heart to change.
3. Many times we are not even ready for the answers to the type of requests we make from God. Sometimes when we receive the answers to our prayers, we shut down. And that's because God is pushing us to get out of our comfort zone.

Google acting as a wing of the U.S. gov't is pulling Huawei’s Android license. Huawei will lose Android updates, Google Play Store access in order to discourage Chinese government spying on users while monopolizing
US government spying on users. reuters.com/article/us-hua…
Huawei will have to create own OS to continue updates which the Chinese government is already developing. Meaning they will have even larger control over devices, apps, and the total ability to spy on millions of users that will not stop using their products because why?
Needless to say, anybody working for @Google , @GooglePlay , or has ever worked for them or contractors directly associated to them, should 100% not go to China right now unless they really want to get State fucked and guillotined.

Long rumored @TheJusticeDept indictment of #APT10 is out. sc.cnbcfm.com/applications/c…
Here are my observations/highlights from reading the indictment (channeling my inner @pwnallthethings):
-the indictment indicates #APT10 operations started in 2006 and went through 2018. The 2006 activity was likely focused on US Government, Military, and defense contractors

1/n
Interestingly the indictment calls out multiple government organizations by name that were victims including:
@NASAGoddard, @NASAJPL, @LLNL, and the @USNavy

2/n
