Linux is suddenly booming in Europe. April 2024, Linux had a small 2.84% slice of the desktop market in Europe. Fast forward to July 2025, and that share has jumped to an impressive 5.21%. That’s a massive 83.45% increase in just over a year.

When Windows 10 support ends, hundreds of millions of computers won’t get vital security updates. Instead of buying new hardware, people are choosing a different path.

🎶 Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours;
Think of all the great things we would do.

Those were the days, my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way. 🎶 "Mary Hopkins, circa 1968)

« Comparer Jean-Noël #Barrot à un Henry Kissinger ou à un Sergueï #Lavrov, c’est cruel, tant l’un incarne ce qu’est un diplomate et l’autre ce que la #diplomatie ne devrait jamais devenir. Kissinger, disparu en 2023, restera comme un maître des rapports de force, un homme qui savait lire le monde, anticiper ses soubresauts, et bâtir des équilibres durables avec un mélange d’intelligence froide et de cynisme assumé. Lavrov, que l’on peut aimer ou détester, c’est la constance, la redoutable efficacité du professionnel qui domine la scène internationale depuis plus de vingt ans, sans jamais perdre son sang-froid ni son cap.

Et puis il y a Jean-Noël Barrot : l’anti-diplomate par excellence. Agressif là où il faudrait être subtil, agité là où il faudrait peser ses mots, il aligne des déclarations qui sont systématiquement l’exact inverse de la réalité, comme si sa boussole était déréglée au point de toujours pointer le mauvais nord. Peut-être est-ce cela qui l’exaspère tant : de sentir confusément qu’il parle pour ne rien dire, qu’il gesticule sans rien obtenir — alors les yeux s’exorbitent, les traits se contractent, la nervosité éclate au grand jour. Il ne négocie pas : il tempête, il ne convainc pas : il agresse. Le tout au service d’une diplomatie française devenue transparente, voire ridicule, sur les grandes scènes internationales.

Quant à Mark #Rutte, secrétaire général de l’ #OTAN, ses sarcasmes sur la longévité de Lavrov trahissent surtout une gêne : il sait bien qu’en face de lui, Lavrov a des décennies de métier que lui-même ou ses alliés ne pourront jamais rattraper. Et Kaja #Kallas, à la tête de la diplomatie européenne, complète ce tableau d’ #amateurisme : des postures binaires, des slogans vides, aucune profondeur, aucune vision, rien que des leçons creuses données au monde, dont personne ne se soucie.
Voici la diplomatie occidentale : des figurants ignares et nerveux. »

@Günter One could say ants especially know what to eat. They seem pretty intelligent and shouldn't be discounted. They make excellent food testers. The ants that I live among seem to be fans of black tea. I don't use any sweeteners and I'm partial to black teas and I have an electric tea kettle outside and they're always flocking to it. They also do not like sugar free sodas according to my experiments and observations.

The team behind Trump's World Liberty Financial project has proposed lifting restrictions on the WLFI "governance token" to make it tradeable. I predicted shortly after its launch that if Trump succeeded in gutting the SEC, he would do this.

This would lift the substantial restrictions on the token (non-US or accredited investors only, locked tokens with no secondary sales) that were aimed at sidestepping attention from the previous SEC, and could be enormously lucrative for Trump.

#crypto #cryptocurrency #USpol #USpolitics

Proposal: Make $WLFI Token Tradable General Jul 4 1m WLFI_Team 1d Summary This proposal is presented to solicit community input and formally initiate the tradability of the token. This would mark a major milestone in the development of the World Liberty Financial ecosystem and opens the door for broader community participation, access, and protocol development. ⸻ Proposal Objectives • Make $WLFI transferable, thereby enabling broader community access to governance participation, whether through peer to peer transactions or secondary markets • Transition the WLFI ecosystem from closed to open participation • Enable greater token utility access • Begin the next phase of community ownership and engagement • Align long-term token incentives with protocol adoption and success ⸻ Early Supporter Unlocking • A portion of WLFI supply was sold to early supporters • A portion of these tokens will be eligible to be unlocked upon launch of tradability • The remainder of the tokens will be subject to a second vote by the community to determine the unlock and release schedule • Founders, team, and advisor tokens will not be unlocked initially and will be subject to a longer unlock schedule than early supporters to demonstrate long-term commitment and alignment with the success of the protocol • Timing and any eligibility requirements for unlock to be determined subsequently.
Why Now? Over the last year, WLFI has made significant progress across product development, ecosystem partnerships, and brand awareness. With strong demand from community members and partners, many community members have said that the timing is right to make WLFI tradable and initiate this next chapter in our collective journey. ⸻ Governance & Community Role Following the vote to make the token tradable, WLFI’s governance framework will enable more token holders to participate directly in protocol decisions. This includes voting on emissions, ecosystem incentives, and future treasury actions. This proposal is the first step in handing greater influence to the community. ⸻ Next Steps (If Approved) • Execute and enable transferability • Initiate distribution for eligible early supporters • Begin community governance with a second vote on remaining unlocks • Continue ecosystem expansion and partner integrations ⸻ Voting Options • YES: Proceed with WLFI tradability • NO: Maintain current token non-transferability and closed network status ⸻ Final Note This is a defining moment for World Liberty Financial. The foundation has been laid, the community is growing, and we’re ready to move forward. Launching WLFI as a tradable token brings us one step closer to building a more open, transparent, and powerful financial system. Let’s build it together. — The WLFI Team

We built a thing! I spent the past few months building Trusted Signatures, a SaaS product that makes it easy to provide durable signed PDFs at scale.

This makes it easy to prove documents came from who they’re supposed to, unaltered.

  • ✅ AATL and eIDAS compatible signatures (Adobe Reader green check ✅)
  • ✅ Detached CMS support — send only the SHA-256 hash, keep your files local
  • ✅ Accessible via HMAC API key
  • ✅ No full-PDF uploads — just clean cryptography

Perfect for building secure workflows for finance, legal, or compliance — or if you’ve ever wanted a programmable signature API you can actually trust.

@Karl Auerbach trusted-signatures.com

Yeah, DocuSign has a bunch of challenges, sender authentication being one. Another is that after everyone has signed, it signs the PDF with its own certificate, which can tell you if the document was modified but not where it came from.

We're looking at solving problems like this as a supply chain issue; it turns out there's a lot of fraud involving doctored PDFs.

For example, if someone sends you an invoice against a valid PO, but they've put in their own account for payment, you're out the money. But if you only accept signed PDFs, you (or better: your systems) can immediately validate that the invoice actually came from the correct source, unmodified.

Another common problem area is real estate fraud: documents pour in from all over the place (appraisals, inspections, bank statements) and people try to put forward fraudulent ones all the time. If they were signed, then the risk of fraud drops precipitously, and even if there is fraud, the senders cannot repudiate the documents and are still on the hook.

We make it so cheap (our price per PDF quickly approach $0.001 per PDF) that there's no reason not to sign everything your organization sends, and to require the companies sending you PDFs to sign theirs.

Avoiding a single loss or lawsuit will cover the cost a thousandfold.

PostMortem: Data Leak Brandt Kettwick Defense

Type of leak


Azure Blob with the multi-year archive of a law defense firm. Files were readable and indexable for anyone. The leak contained data like search warrants, master case files from law enforcement, interviews with victim, accused and victim of sexual assault cases and much, much more. In total there were several tenthousand documents.

URL of the leak was: brandtdefense.blob.core.window…

Threats from the leak


I see the following threats:Confidentiality people seeking legal counsel help is compromised Privacy of mutliple U.S. citizens compromisedVery likely violation of several laws and ethic guidelines

TimelineApril 2025: Leak is dicovered by a security researcher.June 4th 2025: Significance of the leak identified, multiple attempts by the security researcher to close the leak (Email, Web Contact), no reply during the complete incidentJune 12th 2025: A second security reseracher attempts to contact the law defense firm, no reply till the end. Calls to the designated phone number were hung up by the law firm.June 19th 2025: FBI and Hopkins (Minnesota police department) are informed.June 21st 2025: I join the effort. Email directed to the owner of the comany and one identified affected person. Not reply during the complete incident.June 25th 2025: Second security researcher reaches out to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA). They reply nearly immediately that they will investigate,June 29th 2025: I make a infosec.exchange/@masek/114767… and ask for help to get the attention of the law firm. The second researcher reaches out again to the BCA.July 2nd 2025: Leak is closed. BCA answers that they were unable to get the attention of the law form via phone and email, so they send officers on site to convey the seriousness of the leak. They also say that the law firm had asked their IT department and it denied any possibility of a leak.

Analysis


This is not a complete failure analysis. These are only my own observations. Looking

Failures:The chosen IT department was unable to adhere even to the most basic levels of data security.Even when asked by the customer, the IT department denied the possibility of a leak.The law firm has no proper process to deal with external IT security alerts.Lack of understanding concerning the responsibility on the side of the law firrm. Outsourcing only delegates the work but not the legal obligations.

Impact


It can be safely assumed (due to duration and easiness to discover) that all data on those server is now in the hands of inttelligence services (e.g. Russia, China) and cyber criminals with little care about the privacy of US citizens. Especially for people looking for material to blackmail people, this leak was a gold mine.

Acknowledgments


Thanks to @JayeLTee and @PogoWasRight@infosec.exchange for doing most of the work. A description of the incident from the viewpoint of Dissent can be found databreaches.net/2025/07/04/no…

Furthermore I wish to praise the work of Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

Also thanks to @TonyYarusso and @bkoehn@hachyderm.io for assisting us in getting the necessary attention.

Closing Remarks


It is clearly necessary that we have at least one public contact in each country that investigates and closes data leaks reported to them. The effort to close even the worst leaks is unbearable and currently rests on the shoulders of security researchers and their supporting environment.

Time spent on this leak from my side (without the time for this report) is 4+ hours. My best estimate on the effort of all people involved closing this leak would be in the hundreds of hours. The amount of time spent by the person responsible for the leaking system on security issues: None.

Martin Seeger (@masek@infosec.exchange)

Update 2: PostMortem published here: https://infosec.exchange/@masek/114800897587580803 Update: The leak is closed since July 2nd. Will write a postmortem on Saturday and add a link.
