If you don’t want your data analyzed, inspected, shared, or mishandled, then don’t provide it in the first place. Data migration includes backups, so ensure you are using the proper attributes on your files.

Android applications should add android:allowBackup on the application tag and set it to false in AndroidManifest.xml.

[Full-disclosure] hacking FB Ads
interesting bit of research “A couple months ago, when we were preparing to launch the new Limited Run, we started to experiment with Facebook ads. Unfortunately, while testing their ad system, we noticed some very strange things. Facebook was charging us for clicks, yet we could only verify about 20% of them actually showing up on our site. At first, we thought it was our analytics service. We tried signing up for a handful of other big name companies, and still, we couldn’t verify more than 15-20% of clicks. So we did what any good developers would do. We built our own analytic software. Here’s what we found: on about 80% of the clicks Facebook was charging us for, JavaScript wasn’t on. And if the person clicking the ad doesn’t have JavaScript, it’s very difficult for an analytics service to verify the click. What’s important here is that in all of our years of experience, only about 1-2% of people coming to us have JavaScript disabled, not 80% like these clicks coming from Facebook. So we did what any good developers would do. We built a page logger. Any time a page was loaded, we’d keep track of it. You know what we found? The 80% of clicks we were paying for were from bots. That’s correct. Bots were loading pages and driving up our advertising costs.” http://techcrunch.com/2012/07/30/startup-claims-80-of-its-facebook-ad-clicks-are-coming-from-bots/ http://blog.alexanderhiggins.com/2012/07/31/latest-facebook-scandal-widespread-advertising-fraud-156521/ ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

[Full-disclosure] Two Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer
### Vulnerability 1: Internet Explorer Select Element Remote Code Execution ### Original advisory: http://ifsec.blogspot.com/2011/10/internet-explorer-select-element-remote.html I. OVERVIEW There is a vulnerability in Internet Explorer which enables execution of arbitrary code if the user visits a web page controlled by the attacker. The vulnerability is caused by incorrectly validating integer parameter passed to the 'add' method of the Select HTML element. This vulnerability has been observed in Internet Explorer 8. The vulnerability has been patched by Microsoft on October 11, 2011. II. THE BUG The bug is caused by incorrectly validating integer parameter passed to the 'add' method of the Select HTML element under certain conditions. The 'add' method of the Select HTML element is used to add an Option to the Select element. It accepts two parameters: 1. An Option object to be added 2. An integer, specifying the index of the new Option element Under certain conditions, the second parameter is not properly validated, which can lead to corrupting memory at arbitrary address and, in turn, code execution. III. IMPACT The vulnerability can be used to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged in user if the user visits a specially crafted web page. JavaScript needs to be enabled in order for the attacker to be able to exploit the vulnerability (it is enabled by default in all versions of Internet Explorer). IV. PoC A PoC exploit that demonstrates reliable code execution on Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7 SP1 has been developed. The release of the exploit code is planned on a later date, once everyone has had plenty of time to patch. However, the description of the method that was used to bypass ASLR and otherwise enable reliable code execution can be found here: http://ifsec.blogspot.com/2011/06/memory-disclosure-technique-for.html V. REFERENCES http://ifsec.blogspot.com/2011/10/internet-explorer-select-element-remote.html http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/bulletin/ms11-081 http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2011-1999 http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/published/ ### Vulnerability 2: Internet Explorer Option Element Remote Code Execution ### Original advisory: http://ifsec.blogspot.com/2011/10/internet-explorer-option-element-remote.html I. OVERVIEW There is a vulnerability in Internet Explorer which enables execution of arbitrary code if the user visits a web page controlled by the attacker. The vulnerability is caused by an use-after-free bug triggered by accessing a previously deleted Option element. This vulnerability has been observed in Internet Explorer versions 6, 7 and 8. The vulnerability has been patched by Microsoft on October 11, 2011. II. THE BUG In Internet Explorer, the implementation of Select HTML element contains an array of pointers to the Option elements the Select element contains. This array is called the Option cache. Normally, whenever an Option element inside a Select element is accessed via JavaScript, Option cache is rebuilt, thus ensuring its consistency. However, there are some JavaScript methods that can be used to delete and modify the Option elements contained inside the Select element without rebuilding the Option cache. In combination, these methods enable modifying a previously deleted Option element. III. IMPACT The vulnerability can be used to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged in user if the user visits a specially crafted web page. JavaScript needs to be enabled in order for the attacker to be able to exploit the vulnerability (it is enabled by default in all versions of Internet Explorer). IV. PoC A PoC exploit that demonstrates code execution has been developed. However, due to the severity of the vulnerability, release of the exploit code is not planned at this time. V.

No. But it's certainly better than doing damage without profit. Making profit means that at the end of the day, the money's going to go somewhere further in the chain. Flattening a tower, for instance, or attacking the local bank that refused to give you a loan because of the time you spent in a cell, isn't as productive. Neither is it making a company loose clients/profit just because they decided they don't want you to use their services (as if you did have a right in the first place...). So by your logic the civil disobedience that helped sparked the revolutionary war is worse than if someone had done the same acts just to drive up tea prices? Again I also remind you the trickle down theory doesn't work And yes I acknowledge the American public has a measure of responsibility in the situation too, human beings are by nature imperfect, but the largest share of responsibility lies with the names listed below. The largest share? I can see Ex-president Bush trying to sell you a bottle of beer for $10 dollars ($7 profit). Wait, I can't. But we did see him increase deregulation and allow this to happen, we also saw him provoke a war with another country based on a known lie for the sole purpose of gaining resources and more control in the middle east. We saw him legalize torture and saw him strip away a good chunk of our civil liberties so the anti terror industry could make a buck. But like you said its ok since someone is making money off of it. Who needs civil liberties anyways right? That sort of thing has happened to me and I paid back every dime of it, most people are decent human beings and would do the same. Most people? I could have sworn 90% of the people in the NYC subway would thank $deity if you suddenly dropped dead so they could get things off you. Call me cynical, but I wouldn't trust anyone else in such cases, other than myself. Frankly 90% of people on this list would just thank $deity i suddenly dropped dead regardless of how much stuff i had :) Regarding that list of yours, great! Now we just need a little more effort. For each of those persons, please enlighten us as to what they did legally wrong. Of course, the people that landed in jail shouldn't be counted. The 99% protest is a modern one committed to change, it just can't right wrongs by pointing at jailed people. http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1877351_1877350_1877339,00.html On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 11:35 PM, Laurelai laure...@oneechan.org wrote: On 10/13/2011 9:18 AM, Christian Sciberras wrote: I simply acknowledge the fact that some people work hard to get obscenely rich, but I just can't stand people that cause damage for the fun of it.

On a different argument, since you seem to know well enough how some of the 1% are doing immoral things, why don't you start by handing out names instead of talking air just as the 99% crowd has been doing up till now? *Alan Greenspan, chairman of US Federal Reserve 1987- 2006 **Mervyn King, governor of the Bank of England **Bill Clinton, former US president* *Gordon Brown, prime minister* *George W Bush, former US president* *Senator Phil Gramm **Abby Cohen, Goldman Sachs chief US strategist **Kathleen Corbet, former CEO, Standard Poor's **Hank Greenberg, AIG insurance group **Andy Hornby, former HBOS boss **Steve Crawshaw, former BB boss **Adam Applegarth, former Northern Rock boss **Dick Fuld, Lehman Brothers chief

This will eventually be interrupted by a sharp, short recession, like the one now.

I want to warn you about Insufficient Anti-automation and Denial of Service vulnerabilities in GlobalWoW. Also GlobalWow can be included in ArcEmu and WOW Emulator Server. This is the last of few advisories which I've made in April 2010. In this advisory I'm continue to inform readers of mailing lists about vulnerable web applications which are using CaptchaSecurityImages.php. - Affected products: - Vulnerable are GlobalWow 3.0.9 and previous versions (and potentially next versions). Also the next products are affected: ArcEmu and WOW Emulator Server with which GlobalWow can be bundled. I've already wrote last year the recommendations about fixing these issues in another my advisory concerning vulnerable web application with CaptchaSecurityImages.php. As I wrote earlier (http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/511023), developers of CaptchaSecurityImages.php fixed this hole at 27.03.2007. So one of the way to fix these issues is to use fixed version of the script or to make appropriate changes in com_bookman's version of the script. -- Details: -- These are Insufficient Anti-automation and Denial of Service vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities exist in captcha script CaptchaSecurityImages.php, which is using in this system.

Insufficient Anti-automation (WASC-21): http://site/acs/CaptchaSecurityImages.php?width=150height=100characters=2 Captcha bypass is possible as via half-automated or automated (with using of OCR) methods, which were mentioned before (http://websecurity.com.ua/4043/), as with using of session reusing with constant captcha bypass method (http://websecurity.com.ua/1551/), which was described in project Month of Bugs in Captchas.

Re: [Full-disclosure] DEF CON 19 - hackers get hacked!
*A German technology researcher on Wednesday showed global mobile makers and technology firms how General Packet Radio Servicehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Packet_Radio_Servicecan easily be tapped, intercepted, and decrypted with an average mobile phone and a few applications.

The PCI SSC requires a stateful firewall in front of servers processing credit card data. Not only to block inbound access to any ports or services accidentally exposed but the outbound policy must also be default deny to make it more difficult to exfiltrate stolen data. If you have traffic going out to a high numbered port and you are not keeping state how do you know if that is a reply packet to an existing inbound connection or if it is an unauthorized outbound connection? Of course, the network should be properly segmented so that only the servers processing payment data are in-scope. You may be right about not putting a stateful firewall in front of the gaming servers (in Sony's case). Where stateful firewalls in front of Web servers are incorrectly mandated by various regulatory frameworks, making use of mod_security or its equivalent on the Web servers themselves ensures compliance without creating a DDoS chokepoint. If you don't have a stateful firewall blocking outbound connections why would the traffic even have to go through mod_security? -- Tracy Reed ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

So, it applies to Android 3.0, sure, but that's the only version it applies to, and Google indicates they will be releasing source when it's actually finished and ready to be released on all the platforms Android currently runs on. Alright, you state context is for the weak and soon after that, you agree with me. That's really fantastic, Google-boy. Well, considering every version prior is more prevalent than 3.0 is, and Google will be releasing source... Cut all that enthusiastic mumbo-jumbo crap. Say WHEN it's going to happen (if so). When will Honeycomb's sources be available? But keep clutching that teddy-bear of spiteful vindication that Google didn't release the source code for *one* version of Android! This one version happens to be the latest. Moreover, I really want to bow to your proselytism but I see no sensible reason for hiding Honeycomb. Oh mommy, GSoC rules! Google is so into FOSS! They sure are. :D Quod erat demonstrandum. On Wed, Apr 20, 2011 at 5:34 PM, Marcio B.

[Full-disclosure] Got an iPhone or 3G iPad? Apple is recording your moves
All iPhones appear to log your location to a file called consolidated.db. This contains latitude-longitude coordinates along with a timestamp. The coordinates aren't always exact, but they are pretty detailed. There can be tens of thousands of data points in this file, and it appears the collection started with iOS 4, so there's typically around a year's worth of information at this point. Our best guess is that the location is determined by cell-tower triangulation, and the timing of the recording is erratic, with a widely varying frequency of updates that may be triggered by traveling between cells or activity on the phone itself. http://radar.oreilly.com/2011/04/apple-location-tracking.html ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

Re: [Full-disclosure] Best Buy and Privacy?
Hey, don't you people have private information laws that deal with this sort of stuff? In europe, someone can't store your private information if you haven't explicitly allowed its storage and usage scenarios, let alone send it to third party. Also, they have responsibility to keep your data secure. There is even an agency to which you can report about possible violations of those laws that supposedly goes on inspections. I'm not sure how well this is handled in reality. I should do an experiment on this by reporting myself, but in any case, I use it to harrass people in situations like yours with no problems. * Thor (Hammer of God) (t...@hammerofgod.com) wrote: I found this interesting, so I thought I would share it. Over the last few years I had amassed quite a number of various gaming system games that I never used anymore (if at all) so I decided to trade them in at Best Buy (they do this for store credit). Though $3 for a $50 game wasn't exactly attractive, I figured I could get a free Blue Ray out of it, so why not. I showed up with a stack of games, and sat at the counter for about 30 minutes while the guy individually entered each title, catalog number, etc for each game. After all that, he finally said that he needed to see my driver's license in order to give me my $73 credit. I always question this type of thing, so asked him why. In case these were stolen he says, going on to say it is store policy. Whatever, I think, so I give it to him. He doesn't just look at it, but starts entering my info into the system - I didn't care because it was an out-of-state license, but didn't like that he was actually entering it into the system. He then notices that my license had expired a month earlier. I actually knew this, but wasn't going to offer it up. He says he can't take it, and I give the obligatory I'm not driving in the store, I'm just giving you games bit and the it was me a month ago, so what difference does it make now pitch. He goes asks the manager, and sure enough, they can't take it because it is expired. So this is the point where I really start to wonder and ask more questions about what difference it makes. He then tells me that the reason he has to enter so much information, including each individual title and UPC, is because they have to send all this information to the Seattle police in case any of the titles I turned in were reported stolen by someone. I asked how they expected to match up a stolen title with a redeemed one short of putting 5 Pimp My Ride games in a line-up for identification, and of course the kid didn't know and didn't care. I then pointed out that even if I did steal it, if the cops came around looking for it, I wouldn't have it anymore anyway because it would be in the Best Buy warehouse. More not caring. While the overall process of wasting police resources on tracking games that might have been stolen seems like a complete waste of time and money, what really concerned me is that Best Buy was going to send my personal information over to the police without disclosing anything to me. There was no mention of it anywhere, no fine print, nothing. Had my license not been expired, that info (which they would not have had) would be put into the public system, and there would be no way I could control the information or what they did with it. This would have been particularly bad if I had to explain why I had a copy of Barbie's Horse Adventure at some point. As far as profiling is concerned, you would think they would be more interested in the fact that I was going to use the $73 credit towards the purchase of a couple of seasons of Dexter, but I have no way of knowing that they wouldn't have sent this information anyway. It begs the question as to what other information Best Buy is sending to whom, and what kind of privacy rights I am implicitly giving up by shopping there. If they can report personal information to government agencies without my knowledge, approval, or any sort of notification, and in this case collected the information for the explicit purpose of doing so, why else are they collecting? AFAIAC, there is something seriously wrong with this. Anyway, I thought I would share this in case anyone found it interesting.

Re: [Full-disclosure] Evilgrade 2.0 - the update explotation framework is back
Hm, I'm new to this list. so I find this a bit strange. Christian, Vladis, are you the same person? what are your motives? do you really believe the things you are saying? you seem to be just generally negative, jumping from point to point and being very silly. Just signing the update packages prevents this attack, so it's not that hard to fix. In my opinion, all in all, you're creating a yet another overly complex system with as yet more possible flaws. Don't forget tat each new line of code is a potential attack vector which affects any system. there is a REAL attack vector that needs to be fixed, and you are saying that it shouldn't be fixed as every line of code creates a POTENTIAL attack vector? Only thing, there's the danger of someone using stolen certificates. a signing key might be stolen, so we shouldn't use it? do you use passwords chris? why? they might be stolen? you can't possibly believe that? Amen to that. A more subtle issue is the tradeoff issue: Any time they have a code engineer spending time building and feeding that code-signing infrastructure is time that code engineer *isn't* spending writing actual new features the users *want*. code-signing infrastructure? ofcourse, code for those things is well known, packed in libraries, and trivial to use. ofcourse. and... and bla.

[Full-disclosure] Compliance Is Wasted Money, Study Finds
For those who don't frequent slashdot... Enterprises are spending huge amounts of money on compliance programs related to PCI-DSS, HIPAA and other regulations, but those funds may be misdirected in light of the priorities of most information security programs, a new study has found. A paper by Forrester Research, commissioned by Microsoft and RSA, the security division of EMC, found that even though corporate intellectual property comprises 62 percent of a given company's data assets, most of the focus of their security programs is on compliance with various regulations. The study found that enterprise security managers know what their companies' true data assets are, but find that their security programs are driven mainly by compliance, rather than protection (PDF). http://www.rsa.com/products/DLP/ar/10844_5415_The_Value_of_Corporate_Secrets.pdf ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

Re: [Full-disclosure] [WEB SECURITY] Trustwave's SpiderLabs Security Advisory TWSL2010-001
Hi all, There is an ongoing conversation about a potential XSS with ViewState of the .NET framework. However, some were not able to reproduce the issue and therefore we decided to prepare a short and high resolution movie. http://www.hacking-lab.com/download/ Regards Ivan -Original Message- From: Trustwave Advisories [mailto:trustwaveadvisor...@trustwave.com] Sent: Dienstag, 9. Februar 2010 23:41 To: webapp...@lists.securityfocus.com; websecur...@webappsec.org; full-disclosure@lists.grok.org.uk; bugt...@securityfocus.com Subject: [WEB SECURITY] Trustwave's SpiderLabs Security Advisory TWSL2010-001 Trustwave's SpiderLabs Security Advisory TWSL2010-001: Multiplatform View State Tampering Vulnerabilities Published: 2010-02-08 Version: 1.1 SpiderLabs has documented view state tampering vulnerabilities in three products from separate vendors. View states are used by some web application frameworks to store the state of HTML GUI controls. View states are typically stored in hidden client-side input fields, although server-side storage is widely supported. The affected vendors generally recommend that client-side view states are cryptographically signed and/or encrypted, but specific exploits have not been previously documented. These vulnerabilities show that unsigned client-side view states will ALWAYS result in a vulnerability in the affected products. Credit: David Byrne of Trustwave's SpiderLabs === Vendor: Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com) Product: ASP.Net (http://www.asp.net) Versions affected: .Net 3.5 is confirmed vulnerable; previous versions are likely to be vulnerable as well. Description: ASP.Net is a web-application development framework that provides for both user interfaces, and back-end functionality. The ASP.Net view state is typically stored in a hidden field named __VIEWSTATE. When a page's view state is not cryptographically signed, many standard .Net controls are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) through the view state. It is well documented that using an unsigned view state is bad, but most previous advisories focus on vaguely described threats or vulnerabilities introduced by custom use of the view state. To the best of Trustwave's knowledge, this is the first time a proof of concept attack of this nature has been demonstrated against the view state. A vulnerability was alluded to in a 2004 Microsoft article on troubleshooting view state problems [1]. However, other Microsoft documents recommend disabling view state signing if performance is a key consideration, [2, 3, 4] or for various other reasons [5, 6]. Realistically, unsigned view states should never be used in a production environment. The following code is vulnerable to a XSS attack against the form control. Note that the ValidateRequest setting does not prevent the attack. %@ Page EnableViewStateMac=False ValidateRequest=True % html runat=server form runat=server/ /html If the following request is sent to the server, the response will contain JavaScript that calls an alert box. xss.aspx?__VIEWSTATE=/wEPDwUKLTgzNDA2NzgyMA9kFgJmD2QWAgIBDxY CHglpbm5lcmh0bWwFHTxzY3JpcHQ%2BYWxlcnQoJ3hzcycpPC9zY3JpcHQ%2 BZGQ= The view state's XML equivalent is below: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-16? viewstate Pair Pair String-834067820/String Pair ArrayList Int320/Int32 Pair ArrayList Int321/Int32 Pair ArrayList IndexedStringinnerhtml/IndexedString Stringlt;scriptgt;alert('xss')lt;/scriptgt;/String /ArrayList /Pair /ArrayList /Pair /ArrayList /Pair /Pair /Pair /viewstate The HTML response is below: html form name=ctl01 method=post action=xss.aspx id=ctl01 div input type=hidden name=__VIEWSTATE id=__VIEWSTATE value=/wEPDwUKLTgzNDA2NzgyMA9kFgJmD2QWAgIBDxYCHglpbm5lcmh0b WwFHTxzY3JpcHQ+YWxlcnQoJ3hzcycpPC9zY3JpcHQ+ZGQ= / /div scriptalert('xss')/script/form /html This example uses the innerhtml attribute of the form control, although other attributes in other controls are also vulnerable to similar attacks. Remediation Steps: The ASP.Net view state should always be cryptographically signed with a Message Authentication Code (MAC). This has been enabled by default since .Net 1.1, but can be disabled using the EnableViewStateMac setting. Using the ViewStateUserKey setting can also help to mitigate the scope of this vulnerability. [7] === Vendor: Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org) Product: Apache MyFaces (http://myfaces.apache.org/) Versions affected: 1.2.8 and 1.1.7 are confirmed as vulnerable. All previous versions are likely vulnerable. Related products: Some versions of IBM WebSphere Application Server

Re: [Full-disclosure] All China, All The Time
Now, by analyzing the software used in the break-ins against Google and dozens of other companies, Joe Stewart, a malware specialist with SecureWorks, a computer security company based in Atlanta, said he determined the main program used in the attack contained a module based on an unusual algorithm from a Chinese-authored technical paper that has been published exclusively on Chinese-language Web sites. http://news.cnet.com/Evidence-found-of-Chinese-attack-on-Google/2100-7349_3-6250413.html?tag=newsEditorsPicksArea.0 On Wed, Jan 20, 2010 at 6:51 AM, Densmore, Todd todd.densm...@hp.com wrote: Mark, Dan, Smasher, etc. Thanks for the feedback.

Re: [Full-disclosure] Revenge of the Computer Nerds
ahh the bullshit left / right paradigm. Sheeple anyone? Seven Ploys for Manipulating the People: 1. The Distraction Principle: While the people are distracted by the struggle to exist, politicians can do virtually anything to them and they will not notice 2. The Social Compliance Principle: The people are trained by society not to question authority. Politicians can exploit this “suspension of suspiciousness� to make people believe what they want them to 3. The Herd Principle: Even highly scpetical people will let their guard down when everyone around them appears to share the same views. Politicians exploit this by utilising propaganda (spin) to spread lies and misconceptions 4. The Dishonestly Principle: Any mistaken past agreement with the politician's spin may be used against you in the future, making it harder for people to publicly change their views even when they realise they've been had 5. The Deception Principle: Things and people are seldom what they seem, but politicians and their media teams are expert at manipulating your perceptions to believe that they are 6. The Need and Greed Principle: Your needs and desires, such as wanting to do the right thing for your children, make you vulnerable. Once politicians have convinced you about what it is you really want, they can easily manipulate you 7. The Time Principle: When the people are under time pressure to make an important choice, they use a different decision strategy. Politicians steer the people towards a strategy that involves less reasoning. These are the classic ploys used by confidence tricksters everywhere.

I succesfully tested the other vulnerabilitiy called Microsoft Windows XP/Vista TCP/IP Orphaned Connections Vulnerability because i had more information. I'm testing this issue against a Windows Vista Ultimate SP1. I could patch it and then compare the corresponding binary files. Following your guesses i can start to try something buggy. Thanks.

I mean, how windows implemented it to lead to code execution?. My guess is that there's some code in there that should have said: if packet.hdr.type = TIMESTAMP { option.callback = timestamp_handler; option.data = packet.hdr.timestamp_data; } else { option.callback = NULL; } and some other code that did this: if (option.callback) { *option.callback(option.data) }; but somebody forgot that else field, so .callback was random trash. Since it was non-NULL random trash, the 'if' was true, and we end up calling through a trash pointer. Now if you have a way to control the value of option.callback (possibly 'option' is an malloc structure), and uou can force re-use of the area by including multiple TCP options on a christmas-tree packet... I can't prove that's the case here, but that's the general model for quite a few oh fuck we called through a bad function pointer. If it isn't that, it's probably a use-after-free where some other function has re-allocated the storage and done the fandango on the bits. Binary diffing?. Stop spamming. Suggesting doing a binary diff at this point wouldn't be spamming at all - it would tell you *exactly* where the missing 'else foo=NULL' was. The fact that we don't have W2003 servers falling over left right and center would indicate that it's probably some odd corner case involving multiple TCP option fields and other similar (a bad multiply-nested 'if/then/elseif/then/if/ else/elseif/then/else', nested case statements, etc. And at that point, you're going to need either the source or a good binary diff to see where it went astray. :) ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

You need only look inside one of ATT's PoPs in San Francisco for proof. You know this to be true because you've looked for yourself, right? You didn't just take the world of a complete stranger quoted by a compliant press at face value, did you? Yes, the NSA might target non-citizens, however, without oversight, who is to know? Don't mention FISA judges either. They have become a rubber stamp for wiretap requests with an approval rate of well over 99.99%. Sure, because we all know those rat bastards at the NSA and all those federal judges don't give a shit about the USA or freedom or personal rights. When you forget that the people who work in government are just like you, trying to make a living and do the best they can, it's easy to depersonalize them and demonize them as if they're all blackhearted evil turds. Easy, that is, if you don't have much of a brain. The same applies to the NSLs issued by the FBI. Not only are targets not permitted to talk about such NSLs, but they can't even acknowledge the existance of such NSLs. And yet, here you are asking for the very proof that cannot be provided. That's hilarious. The surveillance program didn't even survive for four years after 9/11 before someone inside the NSA blew the whistle on the program. Of course, even though they were working for those evil bastards somehow their altruism got the better of them and they revealed the truth about the program, despite the fact that they had sworn an oath to keep it a secret. (And I'm sure they didn't get a dime for blabbing either!) And of course Congress knew nothing about it, even though they had been briefed about it dozens of times and never raised a single objection. Then of course, once the program had been revealed publicly, all those altruistic politicians immediately began investigating because they care so deeply about your privacy and your personal freedoms. And then all the privacy experts, motivated by the purest of concerns, your personal privacy and freedoms, immediately sprung into action to protect you because they all care so deeply for you personally. Or maybe, just maybe, there was the ever-so-slightest twinge of politics involved. Of course we all know that Joe Wilson told the truth and George Bush lied. That should be obvious to any rational person, right? But we'll never know for sure if the whistleblowers were motivated by something other than altruism, because you're so deeply concerned about your personal privacy and freedom that it would never even occur to you to question the motives of anyone who agrees with your view of the world. The fact that you believe that only those who violate their oath of office are honest and only those who never violate their oath of office are dishonest blinds you to the possibility that the truth lies somewhere in between. It's OK though. So long as you don't apply that standard to your investments, you'll probably be able to retire OK. The only question I have for you is... Which government agency is paying your mortgage? The same one that is proposing to pay for your healthcare and control every other aspect of your life because you're too blind to see the forest for the trees.

In other words, the time to raise a fuss is *before* they go down the slippery slope, not once they're 3/4 of the way down and in an uncontrolled slide.

[Full-disclosure] How Prosecutors Wiretap Wall Street
The answer is both more mundane and more alarming. Prosecutors are using the FBI's massive surveillance system, DCSNet, which stands for Digital Collection System Network. According to Wired magazine, this system connects FBI wiretapping rooms to switches controlled by traditional land-line operators, internet-telephony providers and cellular companies. It can be used to instantly wiretap almost any communications device in the U.S. — wireless or tethered. http://www.wallstreetandtech.com/blog/archives/2009/10/how_prosecutors.html;jsessionid=ABTR4HPERGBDFQE1GHPCKHWATMY32JVN ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

[Full-disclosure] Web-monitoring software gathers data on kid chats
Parents who install a leading brand of software to monitor their kids' online activities may be unwittingly allowing the company to read their children's chat messages — and sell the marketing data gathered. Software sold under the Sentry and FamilySafe brands can read private chats conducted through Yahoo, MSN, AOL and other services, and send back data on what kids are saying about such things as movies, music or video games. The information is then offered to businesses seeking ways to tailor their marketing messages to kids. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5i5CjgMEdrwRm3JxeglUykMAHAYmAD9AGNVM00 ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.

[Full-disclosure] The BBC acquired a botnet, but was it legal? - Update
According to Struan Robertson, a technology lawyer with Pinsent Masons, in a posting on Out-Law.com, the BBC's statement that the activity would only be illegal if those behind it had criminal intent is not true. Robertson said The BBC appears to have broken the Computer Misuse Act by causing 22,000 computers to send spam. It does not matter that the emails were sent to the BBC's own accounts and criminal intent is not necessary to establish an offence of unauthorised access to a computer. However, Robertson does not think the BBC will be punished for the action because the BBC's actions probably caused no harm. http://www.h-online.com/security/The-BBC-acquired-a-botnet-but-was-it-legal-Update--/news/112834 ___ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
