- WAICT builds on subresource integrity to create an end-to-end transparency solution for web applications. It is still early days, but this looks like great news for web application auditability and trust! 🎉 blog.cloudflare.com/improving-th...

- Jag försökte bli månadsgivare till en organisation jag stödjer, men för att godkänna autogirot var jag tvungen att ge något som heter FinShark tillgång till mitt konto i 180 dagar!? Det känns ju helt bananas! Är det här verkligen det bästa vi kan åstadkomma 2025?
- Reposted by Fredrik DahlgrenWe are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. signal.org/blog/pdfs/ge...
- This is so cursed.
- Signal is really pushing the envelope with their new post-quantum secure triple ratchet. The protocol is formally verified using ProVerif, and the implementation uses hax to verify correctness and panic-freeness of the implementation. Really great work!
- In 2023, Signal was the first mainstream messenger to enable post-quantum cryptography. We’re still ahead of the (elliptical) curve, implementing a new hybrid PQ ratchet ensuring Forward Secrecy & Post-Compromise Security even in a post-quantum world. signal.org/blog/spqr/

- This is a great post on how to bypass code signing (e.g. for malware persistence or to introduce backdoors) by tampering with V8 heap snapshots. All Electron apps (like Slack, 1Password, and Signal) and Chromium based browsers were vulnerable to this issue. blog.trailofbits.com/2025/09/03/s...

I found someone's chat where I can see their api key I found some building their resume. Their name, email and phone numbers are exposed. www.fastcompany.com/91376687/goo...

- Reposted by Fredrik DahlgrenWe ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers. The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.
- Swedish security police have unintentionally leaked the locations of the Swedish prime minister and the Swedish monarch by using the fitness app Strava while on assignments. Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 🙄 www.bbc.com/news/technol...
