@der @bobjonkman Not just your employer's computer. I used to get catalogs of MITM appliances sent to me at work. The vendors were targeting chains of #coffee shops and eateries that offered #WiFi access. I suspect you're being MITM'd every time you use Internet at a hotel, too. -

MITM cert software is all too common. There's a whole ecosystem of vendors selling MITM "solutions" to corporations. And since nobody ever checks the cert details when they're browsing with https, nobody realizes they've been compromised. Never do your banking from your employer's computer! The whole hierarchical PKI of certs, CAs and browsers is completely broken. !surveillance !security -

@lnxw48, this reminds me of a rule I once encountered about 'safe' image-formats for exporting data: #PNG is dangerous because the orthogonal alpha channel means pixels can contain invisible (recoverable) data; #GIF is safe because transparent pixels contain only the transparency. !security -

Do not copy/paste from web sites into your terminal. Here's an example of why you should not do so: http://head4.me/33 (I know it is basic !security, but you'd be surprised how many people do this, often while following some tutorial.) -

Bruce Schneier looks at the #Sony penetration and how aggressively deleting data is critical to organizations’ !security. Quite contrary to many organizations’ current practice of trying to preserve everything (no matter how minor or useless) for as long as possible.
