UPDATE: Israeli company we caught delivering zero-click infections is #1 bidder on Starlink ads in 105 countries.
Data from @trendai_RSRCH suggests worldwide surveillance op targeting @Starlink users. 1/

🚨NEW INVESTIGATION: zero-click mercenary spyware hacking via targeted ads.
A normal-looking ad loads. If you're a target, you're infected. No click needed.
To protect yourself, block ads now.
First time it's been confirmed in the wild. We call it #AdFection.
Candiru spyware infections at @AJEnglish. 45+ devices infected.
Same ad pipeline operated by Israeli company Discover-Tech reached NATO, European Parliament, dozens of gov networks & critical infrastructure incl US nuclear giant Westinghouse.
Confiant, which worked with us, found signs ads were displayed at US @DeptofWar, IAEA & ICC.
Investigation ongoing 1/

Censorship resistant stablecoins have always been a worthy pursuit in the crypto space.
Being unit is a rune, we can support this across Rosen connected systems.
A Bitcoin-backed dollar, with fast, private payments using @CashuBTC.
Cashu’s open-source community has built a way for digital money to move like cash. Ducat brings UNIT’s Bitcoin-backed dollar into that system.
Deposit UNIT with Ducat’s mint and receive Turbo UNIT, Ducat’s UNIT-denominated ecash. Send it as a message or QR code, without putting every payment on Bitcoin’s public ledger or waiting for a new block each time.
UNIT stablecoin. Fast, private and ready for everyday payments.

What if a browser removed Brave’s unnecessary features instead of asking you to disable them yourself?
Growser is an open-source Brave fork that removes telemetry, Rewards, the crypto wallet, VPN and AI assistant directly from the build.
Ads and trackers are blocked by default. No account or sync required. Your browsing history, bookmarks and passwords stay on your device.
Some Google services are still used, but requests are routed through Growser’s own proxy so Google sees the proxy’s IP address instead of yours.
Available on Linux, Windows and macOS, with beta versions for Android and iOS.

Could you see yourself switching to Growser for a cleaner, more privacy-focused browsing experience?

Your bank doesn’t need to get hacked. A certificate authority can fail for it.
Handshake exists to reduce this trust: names anchored on-chain, site keys verified through DNSSEC/DANE.
Certificate authority system needs an upgrade. 🤝
xitter.cf/theSouilos/status/2112…
🚨 MAJOR SECURITY ALERT
8 certificate authority private keys have been compromised.
How bad is it? An attacker holding these keys could impersonate ANY website, including banks, exchanges, or Google, and potentially intercept sensitive communications.
The good news: Chrome, Firefox and Apple have already taken action to block the compromised certificates.
The bad news: Many apps, developer tools and systems may still trust them.
What you should do TODAY:
Update your browser, OS and phone.
Update desktop apps (Slack, Discord, VS Code, etc.) as patches arrive.
Avoid untrusted Wi-Fi until your devices are updated.
Only install updates from official sources.
Ignore any email offering a "certificate fix".
This is a serious compromise of internet trust infrastructure, not just another website hack.

TLD owners: bring your namespace for partner review.
App builders: embed name registrations through the reseller API.
Decide who handles checkout, renewals and support.

‼️ BREAKING: Unauthenticated attackers are hijacking Plex Media Servers.
Exploit code was published on GitHub on 16 October, immediately after exploitation in the wild began.
A researcher reports a honeypot running Plex was turned into a crypto miner and a proxy.

Pull up an llm
Input a chain
You can input a chain and a dapp as well.
Ask this.
How many independent control boundaries must a user’s economic intent cross before that user/peer can construct the resulting economic state?
Then input Ergo using Lithos Protocol.
It will answer why it was worth years to build.

Une nouvelle étape majeure vient d'être franchie pour le projet Flux ! 🚀
CumulusVPN est officiellement en ligne et téléchargeable dès maintenant sur l'App Store et le Play Store.
Pour résumer le concept : c'est un VPN qui ne stocke ni n'enregistre aucune de vos données personnelles, accessible gratuitement (avec une option premium à seulement 16 € par an pour soutenir le réseau).
La vraie force ?
Il tourne directement sur les milliers de serveurs indépendants de Flux. On tient là l'un des premiers VPN véritablement décentralisés, sans point de défaillance unique.
C'est le genre de cas d'usage concret dont le secteur DePIN a besoin pour s'imposer face aux géants du Web2 🙌

New Freedom Browser dropped, supporting the ultimate stack of decentralized #web3 domains:
Handshake based domains 👉 @HNS $HNS
Ethereum based domains 👉 @ensdomains $ENS
Bitcoin based domains 👉 @spacesprotocol $BTC
Fight internet censorship, own your domains, be sovereign.
Pirate’s Freedom Browser preview is live, now including freedom.baby's v0.8.7 updates!
• Handshake @HNS and @spacesprotocol sites
• @ensdomains, @IPFS, @ethswarm
• @radicle p2p code repositories
• web3:// open applications stored in smart contracts
• Colibri verifies Ethereum data locally using cryptographic proofs, so you don’t have to trust the server providing it
HNS + Spaces tested with a VPN active. Separately, received a large donation this week, thank you - you know who you are!

First to Arrive. Last to Be Recognised.
Handshake names existed long before ICANN's latest applications. Should established use count when the same internet extensions are proposed in another naming system?
