#gPWN: #Wiretapping #Fiber #ISP Deployments From the Comfort of Your Home
source: gpwn.io
GPON is the fiber-to-home protocol that carries traffic for hundreds of millions of subscribers worldwide (and climbing). It operates on a threat model that makes several assumptions that break in the real world.
We'll chat about how it's possible to become a modern day fiber optic voyeur with hardware that costs about $100 and watch your neighbor's DNS, SIP calls and most-
-excitingly, GTP-tunneled 4G/5G traffic from the cellular towers that you share a fiber line with.

"And while the FBI declined to provide any additional information, it's worth noting that China's Salt Typhoon previously compromised wiretapping systems used by law enforcement.
Salt Typhoon is the PRC-backed crew that famously hacked major US telecommunications firms and stole information belonging to nearly every American."
Still a very bad idea.

While #DictatorDon has given #ICE the greenlight to use THE most intrusive #Spyware IN EXISTENCE (#Pegasus)… not only to spy on immigrants but spy on anyone who opposes his gestapo.… I'm reminded how "outraged" people were when they found out Dubya LIED and was in fact #wiretapping AMERICAN CITIZENS without a #FISA warrant.
But #DonCapone gets away with it b/c "he's not a politician" and therefore doesn't know any better. (THAT'S why he NEVER should have been Potus,)

And folks, if you think this is high tech, remember that was 2015. Anybody seen the movie "Blue Thunder"? In german it was called "Das fliegende Auge". They predicted it. The USA made it real. Home of the free, dudes. :-)

#USA #FBI #Surveillance #Anom #Wiretapping: "The FBI’s surveillance system for reading messages from Anom, an end-to-end encrypted messaging app the FBI secretly backdoored, was capable of much more than simply presenting the millions of intercepted chat messages, providing something closer to a complete monitoring of the digital activities of thousands of people in more than a hundred countries, according to never-before-published diagrams, screenshots, and technical documents that describe the system.
The system, called Hola iBot, allowed FBI analysts to plot peoples’ physical movements on a Google Maps style interface, provide summaries of their conservations, and draw social connections between users. In the eyes of one FBI agent, Anom became more of a social network for criminals than a messaging app.
“Welcome to Hola iBot!,” a login screen for the system says. “You are accessing a US. Government information system, which includes this computer, this computer network, all computers connected to this network, and all devices and/or storage media attached to this network or to a computer on this network. This Information system is provided for U.S. Government-authorized use only,” it adds."

Unfortunately, here's another case, this one from #Ireland, where there's a call for authorities to be able to "access" encrypted online messaging services
It's particularly disappointing that the call is coming not from law enforcement but from a judge on the High Court, who I would have hoped would take #privacy concerns more account
And anyone familiar with Irish history of the last 50 years knows there has been notorious abuses of #wiretapping in the past

На росії хочуть поставити на прослушку дзвінки у WhatsApp і Telegram, - пише CNEWS з посиланням на Коммерсант.
Як таке можливо, якщо WhatsApp застосовує наскрізне End-to-End-шифрування??? Все можливо. Просто тут попахує бекдором, про який ще в 2016-му писали The Guardians.
"Навіщо я взагалі це коментую, хіба мені без різниці?", - спитаєте ви.
Все дуже просто. Рашка - концтабір. І я не хочу, щоб щось подібне було й у нас в Україні...
Хоча.... маю побоювання, що такі Антифрод-системи насправді вже давно не рідкість й повним ходом працюють в деяких інших країнах (наприклад, в Ізраїлі), звідки москалі їх просто "злизують".
Моя порада: тримайтеся подалі від цих поп-месенджерів, якщо ви прагнете конфіденційності. І WhatsApp, і Telegram - "обоє - рябоє".
Що я можу порадити?
Для лінивих (тих, хто любить, "щоб було зручно!"), поки що, найбільш вдалим варіантом залишається і є - Signal (є в ньому бекдор чи ні - залишається під питанням).
А для просунутих категорій - однозначно Briar, Jabber, Tox або Matrix.
