  1. Ordinary #WiFi can now identify people with near perfect accuracy

    source: sciencedaily.com/releases/2026…

    Scientists in #Germany have demonstrated a startling new form of surveillance: identifying people using nothing more than ordinary WiFi signals. By #analyzing how #radio waves bounce around a room, #researchers can effectively “see” and #recognize individuals — even if they are not carrying a #device and even if their #phone is turned off.

  4. Gizmodo: Researchers Issue Warning About Tech That Could Turn Every Router ‘Into a Potential Means for Surveillance’. “Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany say ordinary WiFi networks can be used to identify people with an eerie amount of accuracy.”

  9. Okay, now I am not freaking out at all.

    Ordinary WiFi can now identify people with near perfect accuracy
    Scientists say ordinary WiFi routers may soon be able to secretly recognize and track people with near-perfect accuracy.

  10. Ekahau Sidekick и RSSI‑offset: физические ограничения метода и пять независимых причин неточности клиентской модели

    Аннотация. В статье рассматривается физическая основа измерений Ekahau Sidekick и механизм применяемого RSSI‑offset с позиций теории антенн, теории шума радиоприёмных устройств, статистической теории сигналов и стандартов IEEE 802.11. Показано, что scalar RSSI‑offset является линейным сдвигом уровня и не моделирует ни реальный SNR клиентского устройства, ни структуру QAM‑созвездия, ни алгоритм rate adaptation, ни роуминговое поведение. Помимо пяти независимых физических и системных причин неточности, рассматриваются системные упрощения Ekahau, касающиеся MIMO‑усиления, многолучёвости, оценки airtime и визуализации SNR. Приведены верифицированные численные оценки погрешности для конкретных сценариев и практические рекомендации.

  11. Also in reviews, over at TweakTown I’ve put the MSI Roamii BE Pro Wi-Fi 7 Mesh System through its paces. Can a lower-cost mesh Wi-Fi system with just 2 nodes as standard impress me? There was only one way to find out…

  13. BBR рулит, но есть нюанс, когда алгоритмы из нулевых понимают ваш Wi-Fi лучше

    BBR принято считать современным стандартом TCP congestion control. Google разработал его в 2016 году, он работает в production крупнейших CDN, его хвалят в каждой второй статье о сетевой оптимизации. И всё это заслуженно — но с существенной оговоркой, о которой обычно не пишут. Вперёд в прошлое…

  26. NEW: Roger Shoffstall spent three years in prison for evading income taxes.

    It hasn’t stopped the FCC from sending him $1 million a year to sell obsolete internet service in Alaska.

    The money comes from a special government subsidy program. You help pay for it.
