The hubris to think you don’t need to know about how your dishwasher works… I too was once blind, this man showed me the light. Praise be.

No idea. My guess is part of a Stargate activation sequence.

þis one

Holy shit did that character break my brain for a second.

outside of mucking about.

The best use case of all.

Good to see Gargamel following his dreams.

Someone that knows what they’re doing: I will watch this show.

I’d prefer a giant asteroid, but an apocalyptic volcanic eruption would probably do just fine too.

Would you mind sharing where you read that?

The reason it being turned off matters is because LE has a significantly more difficult time extracting data from that state. And again, a proper faraday bag prevents signal leak.

You guys are welcome to do what you want, I’m just explaining the best way to stay safe if you don’t want to leave your phone at home. There are plenty of legitimate reasons someone may want one as a lifeline just in case.

Unless your device is already compromised, that information isnt being logged when the device is powered off so it’s kind of moot.

I’m talking about an actual faraday bag, not a foil bag. That, combined with a powered off device keeps you fairly protected. They aren’t going to get into your phone if it’s powered off.

it also provides an alibi. “see, my phone was here all day long.”

There’s going to be a deviation in usage regardless, it’s not providing an alibi. A gap of time when you’re not using your device that you normally would be is a marker they look for. They key is keeping them locked out (again, power them off).

Having a small faraday bag around is useful too, that’s what I do.

Who the fuck is bullying this guy? I will round up a goddamn posse, Alec is a treasure.

And if you pay for Premium you get all features and zero ads

I like that I get music too. I honestly don’t mind my Premium subscription, I get decent value out of it for the amount of content I view. I just wish creators saw more of that money.

but nobody wants or needs the 500 photos of my cat

You only have 500 photos of your cat? Is your camera broken? Got the cat yesterday?

Smurfberries continue to be the best resource for conversion.

Just make a cool kids UN and you’re all set. With blackjack and hookers.

Basically, the tools that LE uses to unlock devices uses exploits that require the device to be in what’s called an AFU (after first unlock) state. The data on the device is encrypted prior to that first unlock after you boot. If the device is in a BFU state (before first unlock) Cellebrite/Greykey (by far the primary tools used in this space) basically hit a wall.

We’re pretty lucky

Luck has nothing to do with it. We’ve actively decided to allow this shit to happen. The USA isn’t unlucky, we just fucking suck.

because we’re all interconnected; you can snip one country out, and it’ll slightly hurt everyone, but it’ll wreck the country that was snipped out

Conservatives will NEVER understand this.
