  2. From Gourmet Tools to Self-Serve Building Blocks: Scaling Resilience with Shared Language and Reuse

    In my SplinterCon keynote tomorrow: think in self-serve capabilities – Resolve, Shape, Carry, Relay, Choose – not monolithic "gourmet" tools.

    Users ask which tool works. Providers need to ask what is being targeted, how, and which capability is missing.

  4. Why genAI means the end of copyright for software and the re-invention of open source

    Most of the discussions about the impact of the latest generative AI systems on copyright have centred on text, images and video. That’s no surprise, since writers, artists and film-makers feel very strongly about their creations, and members of the public can relate easily to the issues that AI raises for this kind of creativity. But there’s another creative domain that has been massively […]

  9. While the final version of our paper will be presented at IFIP SEC 2026, I summarized our recent work on history covert channels and covert channel amplification: wendzel.de/misc/2026/02/28/his

    I just added the AMPhitryon part: short packets produced by #censorship #circumvention or covert channel tools are often difficult or even impossible to compress, leaving traces that can be analyzed by adversaries. We changed that and can now compress very short packets! #infosec #cybersecurity

  11. Copyright litigation over Anne Frank’s writings likely to impact the fate of VPNs in the EU

    “The Diary of a Young Girl” is a Dutch language diary written by the young Jewish writer Anne Frank while she was in hiding for two years with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. Although the diary and Anne Frank’s death in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp are well known, few are aware that the text has a complicated copyright history – one that could have […]

  16. Another brilliant analysis by @pboehler on what journalism needs to look like if we want anyone to keep caring -- especially in the face of the AI-powered information apocalypse:

    "I've watched newsrooms invest millions in circumvention technology even as their audiences turn to WhatsApp groups for information that actually matters to them: which hospitals have vaccine stock, which neighbourhoods face demolition, which schools accept children without local registration. These informal networks lack sophisticated encryption but they solve real problems."

  22. Von der Leyen Pushes EU Online Speech Crackdown in 2025 | EU wants to ban European under-16s from social media

    So much popcorn:

    Despite the existing Digital Services Act already mandating age verification (and therefore digital ID) online, von der Leyen floated a new, even more restrictive direction for internet access among young people. Drawing inspiration from Australia’s controversial 2024 Online Safety Amendment, which includes a social media ban for those under 16, she suggested the EU could move toward similar rules.

  23. The OSA has created a market for information about circumventing state safety controls, just like in Iran, China, etc… except that we have free speech. The result will be a government war on information:

    Age verification advocates in government warned they would be severely punishing any “platforms” that hinted using VPNs to circumvent age verification controls.

    They did not understand that third party publications would begin aggregating “Which”-style lists of “top 10 age verification circumvention-hassle tools”, advertising those lists everywhere as a resource/for clicks.

    So what are they going to do now? Ban people from talking about how to circumvent age verification? Drive the teenagers and everyone else even further underground, in pursuit of “perfection” rather than “good” – compare this from 2019:

    “The Secretary of State should not make the perfect the enemy of the good when it comes to child protection, especially after so many assurances have been given by the Government that once the privacy issues have been dealt with, and they now have been, these regulations would be brought into law. For the Government to renege on its commitments in this important area is a very retrograde step, and I urge my Honourable Friend and the Secretary of State to think again.”

    The government should be content with good and should let the dust settle

    Tough to forbid it - but Canada could remove the DRM anti-circumvention parts of our copyright law that were added solely to satisfy the USA and its copyright monopolists.

    Then Canadian companies could make, and you could buy and use, a teeny little HDCP-stripper box so every TV would work with any device.
