Security gaps identified in LTE mobile telephony standard
by Steven Schear 28 Jun '18

28 Jun '18

By abusing security weaknesses in the LTE mobile telephony standard, attackers are able to identify which web pages a user visits and to reroute him to a scam website. This is the result of a study carried out by security experts from Horst Görtz Institute at Ruhr-Universität Bochum. All devices using LTE, also referred to as 4G, are affected—i.e. almost all mobile phones and tablets, as well as certain household devices connected to the network. The weaknesses are impossible to close; and they are also still present in the upcoming mobile telephony standard 5G, the standardization of which is currently pending. Still, the problem may be stemmed with the aid of other security mechanisms in b… https://phys.org/news/2018-06-gaps-lte-mobile-telephony-standard.html

[MINISTRY] non-nationalist female Russian politician to Russian women - "if you’re going to have sex with a foreigner, just make sure that partner is white"

To our "Western" ears, this might sound like a eugenecist or some Nazty throwback (which of course would sound rather ironic to just about any Russian, even today :) ** Sensible Politician Urges Russian Women to Procreate Only With White Men https://russia-insider.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413… ------------------------------------------------------------ by Hewitt E. Moore Affirmative Right (2,074 views) on Tue, Jun 26, 2018 The 2018 World Cup is being held in Russia, which will result in thousands of foreign tourists. One Russian lawmaker, who concedes the female propensity for promiscuity with foreigners, has offered some sound advice for Russian women: Tamara Pletnyova, head of the lower house of parliament’s Family, Women and Children Committee, warned Russians against having sex with foreign visitors during a radio appearance on Wednesday. More specifically, she warned Russian woman against getting pregnant by visitors, hearkening back to the 1980 Moscow Olympics. …Kudos to Pletnyova for using her position of power to be candid with Russian women. Unlike politicians in the West, who would never say anything of the sort, for fear of being called a name. Because in the West, discouraging White women from having children with non-White men (even out of wedlock) would be racist. And in the wicked West, nothing is worse than being labeled a racist. ** Australian TV Runs Fair and Accurate 30 Minute Report on Pro-Christian, Pro-Family Russia https://russia-insider.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413… ------------------------------------------------------------ by Russian Faith (688 views) on Tue, Jun 26, 2018 This article originally appeared on a new site about the Christian renaissance in Russia, called Russian Faith.

I've been framed for heinous crimes, and denied any ability to disprove them. For reasons not entirely clear to me, the ACLU and the EFF are okay with me being harassed, and I believe my life has been ruined by the government for over a decade, although it would be in the last half I considered it severe, as it began to include helicopters (which in the best of times could be considered a misuse of government resources). I cannot speak to the motivation of people I do not know why they would frame someone developmentally delayed receiving special education support, but I can say that anyone who investigated me and failed to realize that, is themselves, severely retarded. In the era before scientific investigation, people would have realized there is something wrong with that picture, but people worship science now beyond all reason, particularly if it means the advancement of their own profession. I met with many psychologists and two psychiatrists under false pretenses, who decided to put more weight in a diagnosis they wouldn't reveal to me, then in what they could see before them. Naturally four years ago, I figured anything this wide scale must involve the deep state in some capacity, and there is nothing more deep state than the backdoored nature of the entire architecture of the internet. I began reading more about computers, and tried to get in with the cypherpunk community. Unexpectantly, the cypherpunk community was aloof, and as I put various insinuated accusations against me together, I discovered that the cypherpunk community too was insinuated things in a casual indirect fashion. I think there is nothing more deep state than Project Zero. Have they asked for a list of opcodes that are speculatively executed from Intel yet? Will they ever investigate all the entries for Zerodium that cost $10,000? The members of Project Zero are either idiots or shills. They are too smart to be idiots, although there are smart idiots in the world.

NSA and AT&T: Massive Illegal Surveillance Through Carriers Spy Hubs
by grarpamp 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

https://theintercept.com/2018/06/25/att-internet-nsa-spy-hubs/ SAGUARO etc docs in article. The NSA considers AT&T to be one of its most trusted partners and has lauded the company's "extreme willingness to help." It is a collaboration that dates back decades. Little known, however, is that its scope is not restricted to AT&T's customers. According to the NSA's documents, it values AT&T not only because it "has access to information that transits the nation," but also because it maintains unique relationships with other phone and internet providers. The NSA exploits these relationships for surveillance purposes, commandeering AT&T's massive infrastructure and using it as a platform to covertly tap into communications processed by other companies. While network operators would usually prefer to send data through their own networks, often a more direct and cost-efficient path is provided by other providers' infrastructure. If one network in a specific area of the country is overloaded with data traffic, another operator with capacity to spare can sell or exchange bandwidth, reducing the strain on the congested region. This exchange of traffic is called "peering" and is an essential feature of the internet. Because of AT&T's position as one of the U.S.'s leading telecommunications companies, it has a large network that is frequently used by other providers to transport their customers' data. Companies that "peer" with AT&T include the American telecommunications giants Sprint, Cogent Communications, and Level 3, as well as foreign companies such as Sweden's Telia, India's Tata Communications, Italy's Telecom Italia, and Germany's Deutsche Telekom. “It’s eye-opening and ominous the extent to which this is happening right here on American soil,” said Elizabeth Goitein, co-director of the Liberty and National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice. “It puts a face on surveillance that we could never think of before in terms of actual buildings and actual facilities in our own cities, in our own backyards.” "he and his colleagues found it strange that they were asked to suddenly reroute all of the traffic, because “there was nothing wrong with the services, no facility problems.“We were getting orders to move backbones … and it just grabbed me,” said Long. “We thought it was government stuff and that they were being intrusive. We thought we were routing our circuits so that they could grab all the data.” During his employment with AT&T, Eslambolchi said he had to take a polygraph test, and he obtained a government security clearance. “I was involved in very, very top, heavy-duty projects for a few of these three-letter agencies,” he said, in an apparent reference to U.S. intelligence agencies. “They all loved me.” “You put a gun to my head,” he said, “I’m not going to tell you.” The company provides “voluntary assistance". The agency appears to primarily collect phone calls, emails, online chats, and data from internet browsing sessions. All Tier-1 Telcos and Internet Providers in on it... and refuse to comment. We're Fucking You All.
