Ransomware Proof of publication
by Gunnar Larson 21 Apr '22

21 Apr '22

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ransomware The publication of proof-of-concept attack code is common among academic researchers and vulnerability researchers. It teaches the nature of the threat, conveys the gravity of the issues, and enables countermeasures to be devised and put into place. -- *Gunnar Larson - xNY.io <http://www.xNY.io> | Bank.org <http://Bank.org>* MSc <https://www.unic.ac.cy/blockchain/msc-digital-currency/?utm_source=Google&u…> - Digital Currency MBA <https://www.unic.ac.cy/business-administration-entrepreneurship-and-innovat…> - Entrepreneurship and Innovation (ip) G(a)xNY.io +1-646-454-9107 New York, New York 10001

Directors Who Manipulate ESG
by Gunnar Larson 21 Apr '22

21 Apr '22

Check out my new article: https://litigationfinancejournal.com/directors-who-manipulate-esg/ Directors Who Manipulate ESG As “green values” are still being defined by corporations around the world, public attention is playing a major role in holding corporations accountable for mistreating ESG investment(s). In the United Kingdom, many are calling for directors to be held personally responsible for misapplication of ESG funds. Especially when a company goes into insolvency and there is no capital left due to mismanagement and misappropriation. Stewarts Law LLP recently <https://www.stewartslaw.com/news/could-directors-of-insolvent-companies-bec…> debated standard logic, arguing that directors who knowingly engage ESG abuses to inflate returns may face consequences. Stewarts suggests that directors who operate in such a manner could be ‘on the hook’ for ESG fraud by deceiving shareholders and customers alike. One such example is ClientEarth, a non-governmental organization which is a shareholder of Royal Dutch Shell PLC. ClientEarth is exploring a potential ESG claim against Shell’s board of directors. To help address this problematic scenario, the United Kingdom has issued financial disclosure recommendations sponsored by the Taskforce for Climate-related Disclosures. Whatever the case maybe, Stewarts suggests that directors can expect growing scrutiny on ESG investment disclosures in the future. Furthermore, Stewarts recommends that directorships prevent personal liability by well-funded claimants looking to claw back investment dollars lost due to ESG classification. -- *Gunnar Larson - xNY.io <http://www.xNY.io> | Bank.org <http://Bank.org>* MSc <https://www.unic.ac.cy/blockchain/msc-digital-currency/?utm_source=Google&u…> - Digital Currency MBA <https://www.unic.ac.cy/business-administration-entrepreneurship-and-innovat…> - Entrepreneurship and Innovation (ip) G(a)xNY.io +1-646-454-9107 New York, New York 10001

Web scraping is legal, US appeals court reaffirms
by jim bell 21 Apr '22

https://techcrunch.com/2022/04/18/web-scraping-legal-court/ "Good news for archivists, academics, researchers and journalists: Scraping publicly accessible data is legal, according to a U.S. appeals court ruling. "The landmark ruling by the U.S. Ninth Circuit of Appeals is the latest in a long-running legal battle brought by LinkedIn aimed at stopping a rival company from web scraping personal information from users’ public profiles. The case reached the U.S. Supreme Court last year but was sent back to the Ninth Circuit for the original appeals court to re-review the case. "In its second ruling on Monday, the Ninth Circuit reaffirmed its original decision and found that scraping data that is publicly accessible on the internet is not a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, or CFAA, which governs what constitutes computer hacking under U.S. law.

Design brief for a new system of killing
by professor rat 21 Apr '22

21 Apr '22

Reading about the Kalashnikov AK-47 I was struck by its design that deliberately avoid tight machining and complexity where-ever possible. It was also part of a broader German-Russian trend towards smaller, lighter army rifles and ostensibly and technically less powerful ones - the now ubiquitous assault-rifle. Now proven much more powerful in real-world conditions! This gave me an idea for our assassination markets ( Dead Lucky, APster, PAM, etc ) If they could avoid all the usual bells-and-whistles ' shovelware ' - such as anonymity, end-to-end encryption and untraceable e-cash - then they might ' go viral ' more easily. Softly-softly catchee Gatesy - yeah?

If only MIT taught a course on failed speculative theories
by professor rat 21 Apr '22

21 Apr '22

John Baez says: April 19, 2022 at 10:22 pm It would actually be great if MIT taught a course on failed speculative theories in physics, perhaps using Helge Kragh’s book as a textbook. If students only learn about successful theories they won’t get how hard it is to be right, and how many great physicists had theories that didn’t pan out. https://www.math.columbia.edu/~woit/wordpress/?p=12775#comments

The intent was to break down the subject's personality—theoretically psychic driving could then be used with some efficacy in establishing a new personality.[1] In Cameron's depatterning, the ECT would often continue to be administered despite the manifestation of convulsive fits, which were consensually considered to be contraindications to normal and safe ECT procedure. Such biologically and psychologically devastating procedures, adopted internationally by the psychiatric establishment, were largely abolished by the time the CIA was brought before a Senate Hearing (1977)[2] for its involvement and funding of Cameron's experimental activities—as part of the MKULTRA program.[3] The topic of Cameron's psychic driving is dealt with in some detail in the docudrama entitled The Sleep Room (1998) directed by Anne Wheeler.[4] Dulles ordered Bluebird to be expanded and centralized, and renamed the Project Artichoke. Dulles and Gottlieb both believed there was a way to influence and control the human mind that could lead to global mastery.
