Pegasus has been a politically explosive issue that's put Israel under pressure from activists and from governments worried about misuse of the software. In November, the US federal government took much stronger action, blocking sale of US technology to NSO by putting the company on the government's Entity List. NSO has suspended some countries' Pegasus privileges but has sought to defend its software and the controls it tries to place on its use. NSO Group didn't respond to a request for comment, and the Justice Department declined to comment.
Apple sued NSO Group in November, seeking to bar the company's software from being used on Apple devices, require NSO to locate and delete any private data its app collected, and disclose the profits from the operations. "Private companies developing state-sponsored spyware have become even more dangerous," said Apple software chief Craig Federighi. That suit came after Meta's WhatsApp sued NSO Group in 2019.

Amnesty International released an open-source utility called MVT (Mobile Verification Toolkit) that's designed to detect traces of Pegasus. The software runs on a personal computer and analyzes data including backup files exported from an iPhone or Android phone.
A new tool reportedly being developed by law enforcementagencies to remotely install surveillance programs on a suspect'scomputer is little more than three-year-old hacking technology,security experts said on Wednesday. On Tuesday, MSNBC reported thatthe FBI was working on a computer virus to install key-loggingprograms and other surveillance software onto a suspect'scomputer. Yet if the details of the report are correct, the techniquedoesn't use a virus, but a Trojan horse, a program that actswithout the person's knowledge.
Several hacking tools, the two most popular being Back Orifice andSubSeven, allow full control over a remote PC infected by the program,including keystroke logging and even recording a conversation if amicrophone is connected to the PC. Both programs have beenincorporated into Trojan horses and are several years old. In fact,the FBI has already used similar, if more limited, surveillancesoftware in at least one high-profile case to obtain a secret code tounlock encrypted files on the computer of Nicodemo S. Scarfo, asuspected mobster in the Gambino crime family. In details unveiled byan affidavit in the case, the FBI installed a key-logging system onScarfo's computer during a search of his office.
This article explores the practice of 3D printers from a playful perspective. Using the Ultimaker Original as a case study, it addresses the question of whether the practice of open source software and hardware in 3D printing is inherently playful and how the user affects and is affected by its playability. After examining the materiality of open source development and hacking processes in the Ultimaker Original, I will argue how playfulness of 3D printing stimulates hacking the 3D printer. From a broader perspective, the playful practice of 3D printing can be seen as part of a general development towards the ludification of culture.
A team of researchers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich(ETH Zurich), the Netherlands' Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, andsemiconductor manufacturer Qualcomm Technologies identified major securityflaws in dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) devices. ETH Zurich's KavehRazavi said the Rowhammer vulnerability in DRAMs, exploited by hackers toinduce bit errors and access restricted areas inside the computer, remainsunaddressed. Countermeasures designed to neutralize Rowhammer merely detectsimple attacks. Razavi said the researchers' Blacksmith software, whichsystematically applies complex hammering patterns, found a successfulexploit in each of 40 DRAM memories tested. This means current DRAM memoriescould remain hackable by Rowhammer attacks for years to come. =znwrbbrs9_6-2d6b4x22f6e5x074830&
Camille Anidi, an attorney on Long Island, quickly understood the flawsof the facial recognition software her employers demanded she use whenworking from home. The system often failed to recognize her face ormistook the Bantu knots in her hair as unauthorized recording devices,forcing her to log back in sometimes more than 25 times a day.
