Ca fait longtemps que je n’avais pas vu un article d’aussi mauvaise qualité, bourré d’inexactitudes et de mensonges:
- TousAntiCovid n’est pas une nouvelle app. Il n’y a pas de 1ère et 2ième app, c’est la même chose.
- Non, elle n’a pas 3.4M d’utilisateurs lemonde.fr/pixels/article…
3.4M de personnes ont activé l’app au moins une fois. Mais on sait déjà que +700K personnes ont désinstallé l’app. D’ailleurs, @cedric_o n’a pas communiqué les derniers chiffres sur le nombre de désinstallations...
- L’app offre 1 fonctionnalité en plus: les chiffres sur l’épidémie. Le reste, ce sont des liens vers les sites officiels. Rien ne sert de faire croire que ce sont des fonctionnalités de l’app
Au delà de ce coup de communication grotesque, on voit maintenant sur plusieurs plateaux et articles des mensonges. On a clairement passé un stade... Soit le niveau de certains journalistes est très bas, soit il font de la retape en s’asseyant sur leur éthique
Au moins avec StopCovid on avait un débat, passionné et passionnant, factuel. Là, c’est vraiment n’importe quoi. On ment, on joue sur l’ambiguïté, c’est honteux...

D'après mes calculs savants la version Android de #TousAntiCovid aka #StopCovid 2.0.0 a été téléchargé 465541 depuis jeudi midi
Sachant que le nombre d’activation a augmenté de 1.2M entre jeudi et maintenant, ce chiffre est assez cohérent.
Une pub monstre a été faite en page de garde du AppStore Français donc pas étonnant que les dl soient plus élevés sur iOS
#TousAntiCovid étant une mise à jour mineure de #StopCovid, le ratio activation/désintallation devrait rester le même. Au vu des derniers chiffres connus, on devrait avoir autour des 1.4M de désinstallations

1/ This morning I was reading this article about a new android banking trojan: business.xunison.com/thiefbot-a-new…

I noticed the C2C was still alive, so I decided to look at it
2/ I wanted to see if I can find info on the cybercriminal behind this website.

I enumerated the possible folders (my list is crappy) and found these folders
3/ I tried wp-admin and I got the following source code

1/ This morning, I wrote a thread on #douyin, the Chinese version of #TikTok. I feel the need to add more context.

Digitally speaking, the Chinese population is treated differently from the rest of the world. This is not new.
2/ Firstly, the notion of privacy depends on your culture. Privacy doesn't mean the same thing for a Chinese, an Indian, a French or a Brazilian. It's not a "I'm right, you are wrong" game. We are just not on the same page.
3/ It's a well-known fact that the Chinese gov is closely monitoring his population. One way is the firmware of your phone. Yes, the phone you are holding right now if not behaving the way if he detects you are Chinese.

It’s time to have fun!
It's a trap! #douyin
The same way TikTok uploads "app_log", Douyin uploads "app_logs". Yes, it's an HTTP request. It's very common when you analyse Chinese apps.

My first article about TikTok is online: "TikTok: Logs, Logs , Logs" medium.com/@fs0c131y/tikt…
In this article, I tried to answer to the question: "What logs does TikTok regularly send?" medium.com/@fs0c131y/tikt…
I decrypted the content of the requests and tested all the use cases to get all the possible logs sent by TikTok medium.com/@fs0c131y/tikt…

<Thread> It’s 5:30am and I’m at the airport. Few days ago, M. X called me. He is the CEO of a big company and he thinks that one of his competitors hacked his phone. I’m going to the company HQ to analyse his phone and evaluate the situation.
This is my first post-lockdown flight. Even if the lockdown ended a while ago and the situation is under control in France, the majority of flights are still cancelled and the airport is empty. We are in the middle of the summer holidays, it should be full of people in theory.
This view is amazing.

Bonus game: #GEOINT experts, what city is in the first photo?
