    „Defence minister I. Katz said on April 23 that Israel was “prepared to resume the war against Iran”, adding (…) “We are awaiting a green light from the US – first and foremost to complete the elimination of the Khamenei dynasty... and additionally to return Iran to the Dark Age and the Stone Age by destroying key energy and electricity facilities and dismantling its national economic infrastructure” (…).“

  8. What is Security Theater?

    #Security #theater refers to highly visible security measures that create the #illusion of increased #safety but don’t stop #threats.

    The term is often used disparagingly to describe #superficial security practices that don’t reduce risk. Simply put, security #theatre is all about #appearances, not #results.

If the #supporters of this #gold #mine were #confident of their case, would they really need to resort to #threats of #violence, or the sort of ad hominem attacks on #SamNeill made by the #NewZealand #Resources Minister, Shane Jones? I rather think not. It's only too obvious Mr Jones couldn't care less about the #environment or the #climate.

    Edit: While interesting, it seems a hypothetical, based on real world developments of Canada and EU prepping for a world without US dominance and even in defence of US aggression.

  27. In Trump’s first term, CI-12 was instrumental in tracking potential #threats from the #Iran regime in retaliation for the 2020 drone strike that “killed” [assassinated] Gen. Qasem #Soleimani, then-leader of Iran’s #IRGC Quds Force.

    Iran-backed actors have since been charged with plots to #assassinate US officials that Iran has blamed for Soleimani’s death, including #Trump, fmr Secy of State #MikePompeo & fmr #NationalSecurity adviser #JohnBolton.

  31. "Trump’s tax cuts primarily benefited the wealthy and corporations, and pinning their effects on immigrants illustrates how Trump’s strongest calls were to his base. Not only did he portray immigrants as violent criminals, in a moment scripted for television, he then turned on Democrats in the chamber," (continued in /2)

  38. And it's out!

    Zack Whittaker and I have released our report on the pilot survey we conducted to increase awareness about threats security researchers and journalists who report on cybersecurity and cybercrime experience.

    We are grateful to all those who responded to the survey and shared a bit of their experiences. Based on what we found in a pilot survey with a non-random sample, I really think we need to do a bigger study that can also do a deeper dive into some questions.

    You can read the report in html or download the .pdf version:

    html: databreaches.net/2026/02/02/un

    pdf: databreaches.net/wp-content/up

    In conjunction with the release of the report, I've also added a new "Threats" category to DataBreaches.net.

    You can also read some overview comments from Zack at
