The 2000s were a pretty weird time for cybersecurity. It was becoming increasingly better supported and understood, but you were still coming out of a relative degree of innocence and naivete due to how recent it all was. Laws had yet to fully catch up, security practices were very much still being figured out, and generally it was just a weaker time. It's also a constant game of attack and defense, what it looks like today vs 2008 are wildly different because of this. A lot of it involved making lower level agencies (Possibly with their own rules and policies, often weaker or poorly implemented) come in line with mandatory standards and practices. It's not infallible, but it does a lot.

@@MRJMXHDyeah and if it's wrong for their information to be stolen and given out to others they don't want having that information it's wrong for the federal government to do the same to its citizens or the citizens of foreign countries. They are complicit in helping this surveillance state we live in operate, any one of them could take actions against it like Snowden did, but they don't. If you're actively complicit with evil actions, it doesn't matter if you were "just following orders", you are helping this type of evil prevail and you are partially responsible. Every person has the power to change the world around them and make a difference in it, the fact they don't use theirs to help oppose this surveillance state especially when they're in a much better position to than most people, is all on them.

Currently writing a 20-page essay on the topic of face recognition software used in danish public survaillence. Suddenly, it's really understandable why so many civilrights movements fear it, while government officials and politicians support the idea. As a dane, it worries me that the danish government did'nt set legal boundaries for use of face recognition, even after the AI-Act in the EU.

All access was swiftly revoked and I was booted out supposedly because they were afraid I would leak/disclose information I didn’t morally agree with.

Videos of this nature often emphasize entertainment over factual accuracy, aiming to captivate viewers with sensational narratives. It's crucial to recognize that such content is frequently employed by media and journalists to craft engaging stories rather than to provide strictly accurate information. As viewers, we should approach these narratives with skepticism and verify the claims through reliable sources. This video blends fictional elements with speculative scenarios. Honestly believing that kids or teenagers are able to break into systems like those of the CIA or other significant organizations, which have been developed over years by scientists and cybersecurity experts, is very naive. As a software developer, I'd like to highlight a few inaccuracies in the video, although there are many more that could be discussed. I couldn't watch the entire video, as it appears to have been created by someone with limited knowledge of the subject matter. 1. The claim that "He keeps his Bitcoins on a hard drive" demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of Bitcoin. The primary purpose of Bitcoin is to facilitate a decentralized method of exchanging value using blockchain technology, which distributes a ledger of transactions across numerous decentralized machines. Thus, Bitcoin is not stored on a personal HDD or SSD. 2. The statement "He never uses his private Wi-Fi, instead he connects to the free DQ Wi-Fi using a satellite dish" is flawed for several reasons: - Technological Differences: Satellite dishes are designed to receive signals from satellites, not to connect to Wi-Fi, which operates on different frequencies and employs different technologies than those used by satellite dishes. - Range Limitations: Wi-Fi networks, such as those in restaurants, communicate with devices via radio waves within specific, limited ranges, generally not extending beyond a few hundred feet. Satellite dishes, conversely, are built to capture broader signals from space and are not suited for connecting to local Wi-Fi networks. - Security Implications: Even if it were technically feasible, using a satellite dish to connect to public Wi-Fi would provide no security advantages. Public Wi-Fi networks are inherently insecure, as they are shared with many users, potentially exposing data to interception by others on the same network. These examples should provide a clearer picture of the inaccuracies prevalent in videos like this one.
