Derogatory images of Putin
by Razer 11 Apr '17

As I was alluding. Who stands to gain from derogatory images of Putin? Liberal Cold Warriors. And Russian LGBTs lose while the US uses the disinfo op as red meat to attract LGBTs to the Imperial US military. Anoa J. Changa, Esq. Retweeted Huffington Post: "Liberals are fine with derogatory images of Putin that play on LGBTQ stereotypes for laughs while simultaneously claiming to be allies smh" ~ Anoa J. Changa, Esq.‏ @TheWayWithAnoa, twitter Russia banned pictures of Vladimir Putin in drag, so "The Late Show" made this http://huff.to/2ofoLdi

Russian free software activist arrested for extremist materials posted from his Tor exit node
by Anton Nesterov 11 Apr '17

11 Apr '17

Dmitry Bogatov aka KAction, Russian free software activist and mathematics teacher at Moscow’s Finance and Law University, arrested in Russia and charged with extremism. Here is news report about his arrest https://meduza.io/en/feature/2017/04/10/mathematics-teacher-accused-of-inci… >From his Tor exit node user with nickname Airat Basharov posted some messages on sysadmins.ru website. Russian investigators alleged that this messages contains a call to mass riots and terrorism. Messages were posted from different IPs in different countries (probably another exit nodes), and only one was posted from Bogatov's IP. After Bogatov's arrest, Airat Basharov continue to post messages. Here is his Tor exit node, last seen 2017-04-05 20:00:00 https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/2402CD5A0D848D1DCA61EB708CC1FBD4364AB… Another report about Bogatov https://meduza.io/feature/2017/04/10/kak-arestovali-matematika-dmitriya-bog… (in Russian) #FreeBogatov -- https://nesterov.pw GPG key: 0CE8 65F1 9043 2B11 25A5 74A7 1187 6869 67AA 56E4 https://keybase.io/komachi/key.asc

Are current predominant cryptographic functions the most optimal?
by Ryan Carboni 10 Apr '17

10 Apr '17

The AES round function for instance is not the most optimal, just altering add round key (Transposition of AES Key Schedule) can significantly improve security. While cryptanalyzing one cipher is hard enough, cryptoanalyzing any minor change in construction would be very difficult. Times have changed since the only good cipher was DES, and cryptographers were examining alternative DES constructions such as Ladder-DES proposed on sci.crypt. It was a good thing that the Threefish team had to justify their design decisions since it was very hard to prove security for an ARX cipher. It still becomes an open question as to whether current knowledge is being applied most optimally. Just how much additional security does a tweakable block cipher provide? Would Madryga even be secure under a tweak construction? Would a CBC-MAC be immune to Simon’s algorithm if it was truncated? Wouldn't for wide block encryption, instead of Bear and Lion, be better to just use an envelope MAC over the plaintext and use half of the MAC output as the encryption key and the other half as the MAC? Actually ZFS does something similar.... A search for "zfs" on iacr doesn't reveal anything. Could the Simon cipher use a stronger 3 to 1 function? Reuse the same function for the key schedule? Just how many NSA key schedules did Bruce Schneier see? Should be about four. He's impressed with all four of them. Impressive.
