Error Code podcast. EP 40: Hacking IoT Surveillance Cameras For Espionage Operations
That camera above your head might not seem like a good foreign target, yet in the Ukraine there’s evidence of Russian-backed hackers passively counting the number of foreign aid workers at the local train stations. Andrew Hural of UnderDefense talks about the need to secure everything around a person, everything around an organization, and everything around a nation because every one can be a target.

How come American media is reporting this stuff now, when it has been happening for 50 years?
Was ist eigentlich das IGERla? Das IGERla ist eine verkleinerte Variante der Intergalaktischen Erfahrungsreise (IGER, siehe nächster Abschnitt). Sie findet 2024 anstatt einer “großen” IGER statt, um das Orga-Team zu schonen. Die Location und das Grundkonzept bleiben gleich; ein paar der in der folgenden Sektion genannten “Standards” werden wir in diesem Jahr möglicherweise nicht erfüllen können.

that isn’t very democratic, is it?
Stopping aid was the objective.
I used to use news sites (BBC, Guardian mainly), but the coverage is seriously limited and quite biased.
Gaza Health Ministry statistics are credible and used by everyone including the Israeli government and military. Athough the Israelis will publicly dispute the statistics, they use them internally as the numbers are good.
“On one occasion, a handful of children, all about ages 5 to 8, were carried to the emergency room by their parents. All had single sniper shots to the head.”
How much of a shitty person do you have to be, to snipe little kids in the head?
Stirling Castle is the most castley castle anywhere.
Kilsyth town is a terrible place but the area around it is really nice. Loch Banton and Colzium estate, especially in the autumn rain. Auchinstarry Quarry. There are the remains of the Antonine wall around there (this is as far north as the Roman empire got).
From memory, Iran last invaded another country 300 years ago. Israel....
Genocide. You know they are attempting to commit genocide and you help out. That is being complicit.
There is an "Obligation to prevent genocide (Article I)" which, according to the ICJ, has an extraterritorial scope. See the Genocide Convention Fact Sheet here https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/documents/Genocide Convention-FactSheet-ENG.pdf
the other option is to comply with the Houthi demands that the starvation of the people of Gaza be ended and supplies be allowed in accordance with the International Laws
The deportation of Palestinians to anywhere else would be a war crime under the Geneva Conventions -"Convention (IV) relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War. Geneva, 12 August 1949".
To quote "Individual or mass forcible transfers, as well as deportations of protected persons from occupied territory to the territory of the Occupying Power or to that of any other country, occupied or not, are prohibited, regardless of their motive."

‘apparent’. What they need confirmation from the IDF that it was an Israeli airstike? Is the IDF still admitting to war crimes now that there are going to be ICJ hearings on Monday?
A bit late Bernie. 9000 kids dead and 70% of housing destroyed, most of the hospitals bombed.
Well the stories did read like really bad fan-fic.
Users passwords were leaked in other breaches. 23andme could have forced everyone to setup new passwords but that is not usual practice, is it?
The evidence was a chair and a rope on the floor in a bombed portion of the hospital.
