International Criminal Court hit by new 'sophisticated' cyberattack
"This incident, the second of this type against the ICC in recent years, was swiftly discovered, confirmed and contained, through the Court's alert and response mechanisms. A Court-wide impact analysis is being carried out, and steps are already being taken to mitigate any effects of the incident"

Almost forgot about this reference to a racist blowhard whose show is labelled "America First" in "Hackers."
Where are your brains, in your ass?
"Iran-linked hackers threatened to disclose more emails stolen from President Donald Trump's circle, after distributing a prior batch to the media ahead of the 2024 US election.
Group leaked documents from Republican president's campaign last year. US has said group known as Robert works for Iran's Revolutionary Guards."
Karma!

We now know who the prolific hacker “IntelBroker” allegedly is. These court filings always seem like a tutorial on how to be a better cybercriminal: Only accept payment in the most private cryptocurrencies and don’t intermingle personal and online accounts and IP addresses. #Cybercrime #Arrests #BreachForums #Hackers #ShinyHunters #DarkWeb

If you've followed me for a while you know I love old illustrations from magazines or newspapers about #hacking and #hackers. I especially love this one I stumbled across that was attached to an article about the "Pakistani Brain" virus, which infected boot sectors and left text that included the string "Welcome to the Dungeon"
hi #permacomputers, #hackers, #bricoleurs
Starting to tinker with old/disused smartphones to self-host. However, upon buying a couple second-hand phones, I'm often faced with Google's FRP protection: you can only use the phone by connecting to the previous owner's google account. Factory reset doesn't solve this.
Do you have any trustworthy resources on bypassing this? terminal tools? forums?
Seems essentials to increase phone's lifespan.
thankssss
