Unfortunately, we believe that some of the currently suggested design aspects of the EUDI and its credential mechanism fall short of the privacy requirements that were explicitly defined after extensive debate in the Digital Identity regulation. The main reason for this shortcoming in the current proposal is that it relies on cryptographic methods that were never designed for such requirements. We do not see a way to fix the proposed solution to meet all the privacy features as required by the regulation; we believe that a larger redesign is in order.

The Guardian
The woman in charge of the secure communication channel remains implacably opposed to the âdiseaseâ of surveillance â and concerned about the sharing of personal data.
(Text continues underneath the photo.)
Meredith Whittaker: âWe will hold the line.â
Surveillance, she says, was a âdiseaseâ from the very beginning of the internet, and encryption is âdeeply threatening to the type of power that constitutes itself via these information asymmetriesâ. All of which means that she doesnât expect the fight to end any time soon. âI donât think these arguments are in good faith. Thereâs a deeper tension here, because in 20 years of the development of this metastatic tech industry, we have seen every aspect of our lives become subject to mass surveillance perpetrated by a handful of companies partnering with the US government and other âFive Eyesâ agencies to gather more surveillance data about us than has ever been available to any entity in human history. (...)
The criticisms of encrypted communications are as old as the technology: allowing anyone to speak without the state being able to tap into their conversations is a godsend for criminals, terrorists and paedophiles around the world.
But, Whittaker argues, few of Signalâs loudest critics seem to be consistent in what they care about. âIf we really cared about helping children, why are the UKâs schools crumbling? Why was social services funded at only 7% of the amount that was suggested to fully resource the agencies that are on the frontlines of stopping abuse?â (...)
âSignal either works for everyone or it works for no one. Every military in the world uses Signal, every politician Iâm aware of uses Signal. Every CEO I know uses Signal because anyone who has anything truly confidential to communicate recognises that storing that on a Meta database or in the clear on some Google server is not good practice.â (...)

L'état policier est déjà là , pour établir une dictature féroce il ne faut plus qu'une pichenette :
Il faut absolument revoir «âŻAll the Presidentâs MenâŻÂ» pour se rendre compte le scandale quâĂ©tait le fait dâinstaller des micros-espions en 1972. Scandale qui aboutira Ă la dĂ©mission de Nixon alors que, depuis Edward Snowden, nous trouvons normal de nous balader tous en permanence avec des micros et camĂ©ras-espionnes partout.
Edward Snowden pensait choquer le monde avec ses rĂ©vĂ©lations. Nous nous sommes contentĂ©s de hausser les Ă©paules en trouvant cela «âŻnormalâŻÂ».

"Former head of NSA joins OpenAI board".
"OpenAI has appointed Paul M. Nakasone, a retired general of the US Army and a former head of the National Security Agency (NSA), to its board of directors."
"Nakasone, who was nominated to lead the NSA by former President Donald Trump, directed the agency from 2018 until February of this year. Before Nakasone left the NSA, he wrote an op-ed supporting the renewal of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, the surveillance program that was ultimately reauthorized by Congress in April."
"OpenAI says Nakasone will join its Safety and Security Committee, ..."
"Piecing together the secrets of the Stasi".
"In the weeks before the Wall fell, Stasi agents destroyed as many documents as they could. Many were pulped, shredded, or burned, and lost forever. But between forty and fifty-five million pages were just torn up, and later stuffed in paper sacks."
"There were reports on television about a small team manually reconstructing the files. So I thought, This is a very interesting field for machine vision." "At the time, Bertram Nickolay, a Berlin-based engineer and expert in machine vision, was a lead engineer at a member institute of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, the German technology giant that helped invent the MP3. With the right scanner and software, he reckoned, a computer could identify the fragments of a page and piece them together digitally."
"The reality proved more frustrating."

Une nouvelle Ă©tape dans lâescalade sĂ©curitaire dystopique
Une proposition de loi prĂ©voit une extention de la surveillance de lâintĂ©gralitĂ© des communications des français (par tĂ©lĂ©phone + adresse des sites web visitĂ©s) aux "ingĂ©rences Ă©trangĂšres", avant câĂ©tait limitĂ© trĂšs strictement (au dĂ©part...) aux menaces terroristes (non dĂ©finies clairement...).
Et puis comme nous sommes "en-dĂ©mocratie" (selon les dires des dominants, les mĂȘmes qui font les lois), il nây a bien entendu aucun risque ni problĂšme Ă utiliser des mĂ©thodes de dictatures et de sinistres dystopies...
On connait bien Ă prĂ©sent lâastuce grossiĂšre des expĂ©rimentations limitĂ©es dans le temps et dans le champ dâapplication (promis la main sur le coeur), lesquelles sont ensuite systĂ©matiquement pĂ©rennisĂ©es et sans cesse Ă©tendues (voir la soi-disant expĂ©rimentation de la vidĂ©osurveillance biomĂ©trique pour les JO, la derniĂšre astuce en date, ou anciennement le fichage ADN), sans aucune Ă©valuation sĂ©rieuse ni contrĂŽle, et encore moins avec un quelconque retour en arriĂšre.
Proposition de loi « ingĂ©rences Ă©trangĂšres », une nouvelle Ă©tape dans lâescalade sĂ©curitaire

This, as many users in #infosec communities on social media immediately pointed out, sounds like a potential #security #nightmare. Thatâs doubly true because Microsoft says that by default, Recallâs screenshots take no pains to redact sensitive information, from usernames and passwords to health care information to NSFW site visits. By default, on a #PC with 256GB of storage, Recall can store a couple dozen gigabytes of data across three months of PC usage, a huge amount of personal data.

Imagine this: You lost your phone, or had it stolen. Would you be comfortable with a police officer who picked it up rummaging through the phoneâs contents without any authorization or oversight, thinking you had abandoned it? Weâll hazard a guess: hell no, and for good reason.

En juin 2024, Google va imposer le "Manifest V3" dans son navigateur Chrome.
Qu'est-ce que ce "manifest" ? C'est une interface qui défini comment les extensions de navigateur peuvent interagir avec ce que fait le navigateur.
Google les change soit-disant pour "la sécurité de l'utilisateur". Dans les faits, cela va restreindre ce que les extensions peuvent faire au navigateur. Et donc de fait réduire l'efficacité des bloqueurs de publicité qui seront nettement moins efficaces qu'avant.
Une fois de plus, c'est une "innovation" signée Google présentée comme bénéfique aux utilisateurs qui ne l'est en fait absolument pas.
Pour protéger notre vie privée, on ne peut pas faire confiance à une société dont le coeur du business est justement d'exploiter nos données.
(Sinon il y a un navigateur créé par des gens qui se soucient vraiment de la protection des internautes: Firefox. Et dans lequel les bloqueurs de publicité tournent sans limites artificielles.)
EDIT: Ah tiens, Google vient d'avoir une autre idée pour entraver les bloqueurs de publicité : https://sebsauvage.net/links/?YnLFUQ (limiter la fréquence de mise à jour des filtres des extensions)
