sadly, no mention of #Mastodon in this post, but I suppose as far as social media goes, Mastodon itself is not super secure. It is better than #Facebook or the birdsite, and maybe there are other platforms on the #Fediverse that are more secure than #Mastodon. Security aside though, I am rather disappointed that they didn’t mention decentralized social media, or other forms of decentralization for services on the #Internet.

Im #Tagesspiegel geht es mal wieder um #Hackback bzw. aktive #Cyberabwehr als Abschreckungsinstrument, angeregt durch die #CDU und #SPD. Die Forschung ist sich weitgehend einig, dass #CyberAbschreckung durch Vergeltung nicht klappt. Allow me to elaborate:

Selbst Staaten mit offensiven Cyberstrategien, die Cyberfähigkeiten aktiv einsetzen, wie #USA, #Israel und UK, werden von RU/China/Iran/NK digital angegriffen. Es gibt keine Hinweise, dass sie sich durch US-Gegenangriffe abgeschreckt fühlen.

Warum? Weil die Gewinne durch Cyber-Operationen größer sind als die Konsequenzen durch Gegenschläge. China gewinnt durch Cyberspionage und Infiltration von kritischer Infrastruktur viel mehr, als es durch Gegenangriffe verliert. Russland same. Die Nordkoreaner generieren damit Devisen ohne Ende

Konventionelle und nukleare Abschreckung funktioniert durch Verlustangst. Physischer Wiederaufbau von Städten oder Soldaten dauert und kostet. Cyber-Operationen sind billig. Vom Gegner per Hackback ausgeschaltete Angriffsinfrastruktur kann binnen weniger Stunden bis Tage wieder aufgebaut werden

Die Schadenseffekte von CyberOps sind weitaus geringer als von konventionellen oder nuklearen Waffen. Ergo ist der Abschreckungseffekt geringer. Zudem ist die Verwundbarkeit asymmetrisch: Nordkorea hat weitaus weniger digitale Angriffsfläche als wir. Ungünstig für Vergeltungsschläge.

Nukleare Abschreckung kann nukleare Angriffe idealerweise komplett verhindern (absolute prevention). Digitale Gegenangriffe leiden unter “limited prevention”. Absolute Verhinderung von gegnerischen Cyber-Angrifen ist aufgrund zahlreicher Verwundbarkeit und Angriffsvektoren kaum realistisch.

Nukleare und konventionelle Abschreckung funktionieren in bipolaren Settings zwischen Staaten mit ähnlichen Interessen. Im #Cyberspace ist alles multipolar. Ich habe nicht einen Gegner, dessen Intentionen ich antizipieren muss, sondern hunderte: Hacktivisten, Kriminelle, Proxyakteure, APT.

Text from article(edited for length): Today everything from our water/power/sewer utilities to our cellular telephone systems... to our nuclear weaponry and military services runs on digital ones and zeros that flow through cyberspace. Rather than the next war starting with a flash from a nuclear explosion over New York or Moscow or Beijing, it’s more likely that today the first step would be multiple major cities browning out as the electrical grid is fried the way the United States and Israel took out Iran’s centrifuges a decade ago with the Stuxnet worm. Electronically force open a few big dams to kill millions with flooding, melt down a dozen nuclear reactors creating mass panic and death, and shut down communications systems for first responders: The country would be thrown into a chaos not unlike the firebombing of Dresden or Tokyo in 1944... With no power, no telecommunications, and no water, American cities would descend into chaos in days and become unlivable hellscapes within a week; drain the big banks and vanish their depositors’ records, and Putin has hit our nation at all levels from the top government/corporate to infrastructure to the individual and personal. The risk/reward calculation for cyberwar is so much better than for nuclear war that it’s probable nuclear warfare has become an anachronism and cyberwar is the real new military frontier. And Trump and Hegseth just eliminated most of our defenses against Russia doing this to us.

Uimitor cum gulagul nostru digital este asemănarea foarte mare cu gulagul sovietic Iar a protesta online față de închisoarea online în care suntem îngrămădiți este ca și cum dizidenții sovietici s-ar fi oferit voluntari pentru a merge în Gulag ca să le predice acolo deținuților 👉 c.aparatorul.md/haks3 👈 #AlexanderSoljenițîn #ArhipelagulGulag #cyberspace #deviceelectronic #EraNoiiNormalităţi #gulagdigital #Guvern #identitateanoastrădigitală #monitorizată #NouaNormalitate #PaşaportDigit...

Furvester 5 (2023/24) marked Karis' and my first furry convention.

This was our door badge for Furvester 6 (2024/25), as we managed to get a room with the others again!

A group of five anthropomorphic characters in futuristic, form-fitting suits inspired by the Tron (Legacy) aesthetic, standing in a digital, neon-lit environment. The central figure is a muscular tiger with orange accents on his black suit, exuding confidence and leadership. To his right, a tall black and purple dragon holds two bright disks, a blue and an orange one. To his left, a black wolf with blue accents carries a glowing blue disc. In the background, on the left a red-marked wolf and one the right side, a white-furred canine ride sleek with his tongue out, riding glowing light cycles. The environment is a cybernetic grid with a dark teal sky, filled with faint digital patterns, evoking a high-tech, sci-fi atmosphere.

I don't think that the 48.3% of Americans who voted against trumpists last year deserve a "#BoycottUS" and I remain inspired by and in solidarity with many American artists, scientists, public workers... who are the first to suffer under the current situation.
That said, Europe needs data security and protection from GAFAM hegemony in #cyberspace
Perhaps Americans themselves are safer and more free with #GOG #DeepL #Fairphone #arduino etc.

Nach dem Eklat im Weißen Haus offenbart sich die politische Strategie der #Trump-Regierung auch im #Cyberspace: Heute schreiben die US-Medien über eine Neupriorisierung der Bedrohungsakteure im globalen Raum, darunter auch das Verhältnis zu #Russland. Nun wurde bekannt, dass die nationale Cybersicherheitsbehörde #CISA auch kein Monitoring der #Cyberangriffe aus Russland mehr durchführen soll - ein hochgefährliches und leichtsinniges Spiel mit der nationalen Sicherheit:

#TIL that even though William Gibson is often credited for inventing the term "cyberspace" for his 1984 cyberpunk novel "Neuromancer", the first documented use of the term, predating Gibson's book by a decade & a half, is by Danish artist Susanne Ussing for this "study in cybernetics & open systems which adapt when influenced" 👉 susanneussing.dk/arkivet-proje
