What a perfect scenario in which to spam US government employees. As if a regular administrative transition weren’t chaotic enough.

Also, Trump is handing out 6 month interim top secret sensitive compartmented information clearances to an as-yet unnamed list of Executive Office of the President staffers who don't have them yet. This could go very wrong.

Peng Cheng Labs was listed by BIS's Entity List last week. The facility like supports offensive research on behalf of China's hacking teams. Specifically, the lab very likely supports the recreation of targeted networks for attackers to rehearse operations before conducting them.

I really, really don't want to do this, but let's do a bit (just a LITTLE BIT) of fact checking about what Zuck said on the Joe Rogan podcast, because this is something I not only followed closely, but also spent time *talking to the actual people at Meta who dealt with this* which WAS NOT ZUCK.

Current life is not annoying in its cynicism but rather the lack of exactitude of its mechanisms so let’s do the fucking math for them. If our economy is primarily driven by attention, then let’s quantify attention, a quantum of attention is an ‘attenum’ (plural ‘atteni’).

Bluesky is fine as a communication medium, for now, but the “great migration” doesn’t quite feel worthy of celebration. I don’t trust Dorsey any more than Musk. Technology is not a panacea.

As many CTI analysts in the cybersecurity industry look for Salt Typhoon intrusion details, such as IoC, after the Wall Street Journal broke the news, they discovered no industry reports on the described intrusions could be found. Why is that? nattothoughts.substack.com/p/salt-typho...
