Random story time, covering a multi-decade process that culminated in me doing something today that I'd never done before, swore I'd never do, but it turned out to be perfectly fine. When I was a kid, I was absolutely terrified of roller coasters... So naturally...

Tile location-finding tags, unlike Apple/Google tags, broadcast MAC address/unique ID unencrypted, letting stalkers, Tile or LE track people/items. Anti-theft feature also undoes anti-stalking feature - any tag in anti-theft mode is invisible to scans looking for stalkers. My story for @wired.com

Tile Tracking Tags Can Be Exploited by Tech-Savvy Stalkers, Researchers Say
A team of researchers found that, by not encrypting the data broadcast by Tile tags, users could be vulnerable to having their location information exposed to malicious actors.

Today, my research group @ Georgia Tech released a paper on vulnerabilities in Tile --- the second largest device finding network after Apple's AirTags. You can read about it in Wired, reporting by @kimzetter.bsky.social! www.wired.com/story/tile-t...

Like others, I received a cease and desist letter [2] from Cloud Innovation regarding Emmanuel Vitus' Medium article "AFRINIC: Hope, Hijack, and the Harsh Lessons of African Multistakeholderism". 1/
A partial screenshot of a formal letter on Albert Sellars LLP letterhead dated July 8, 2025, addressed to Ian Phua of Cloud Innovation Ltd in Seychelles. The sender is Kendra Albert, a partner at Albert Sellars LLP. The letter responds to a July 2 demand titled “DEMAND FOR IMMEDIATE REMOVAL OF DEFAMATORY ARTICLE AND CESSATION OF FURTHER DISTRIBUTION.” Albert notes the firm represents Dr. Joseph Lorenzo Hall. The letter critiques the July 2 demand for being vague and overly urgent, suggesting it appears intended to intimidate rather than raise legitimate legal concerns.

Incredibly proud to be able to say that I’m in here with so many of my literary heroes. I look forward to meeting them. The after-court happy hours are going to be the Algonquin Round Table but with more attack lawyers.
