I know you will! I still can’t believe the Pocket Reform is a thing, it’s the one thing in my life that I feel was designed for someone exactly like me and brings out the best in me.

Tomorrow, Todd Beeton will dig into what Trump's effort to “eliminate” the Department of Education actually means in real world terms. And yesterday, we got an inside look at #TeslaTakedown, the protest movement hitting Elon Musk where it hurts the most: his wallet. Don't miss either piece from The Big Picture! thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p…

This Week In The Big Picture

Last week, Donald Trump signed an executive order to begin to dismantle the Department of Education, a step toward achieving one of Project 2025’s major wishlist items and a decades-long fever dream of the conservative movement.

Sicherheitsforschende hatten in der Vergangenheit Ärger mit Ermittlungsbehörden, weil sie von der CDU, Modern Solution und D(on't)-trust angezeigt wurden. Wie reagiere ich richtig wenn gegen mich ermittelt wird, obwohl ich Sicherheitslücken in guter Absicht melden wollte?
Was kann ich tun wenn der Staat plötzlich im Rahmen eine Hausdurchsuchung in meiner Wohnung steht?
Um diese Fragen geht es in unserem #OpenChaos, welches morgen Abend um 20:00 Uhr bei uns statt findet.

They did it on Signal to illegally hide activity and records from the public.
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by the account Joyce Alene (@JoyceWhiteVa ...). The post reads: "Can’t decide what’s worse—that sensitive (likely classified) info whose release would have compromised lives & natsec was handled so cavalierly or that it was done in a way that would have left no official records of what they did (per the lesson of Trump’s 1st impeachment)." Below this, there is a reposted tweet from Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1 ), which states: "Tulsi Gabbard refused to say whether she was using her personal phone in the Signal war plans text chain." Both posts have a timestamp of 15 hours ago.

I’d wager the entire reason they refuse to admit this was a huge mistake is because they don’t plan on ending the practice. As long as nobody loses their job this becomes the way things get done from now on.

I appreciate the clarity of your explanations.

In this news cycle I've been disturbed at hearing a lot about how phones are "easy" to surveil or crack. Is that true?

Only out of a stubborn desire for privacy I am curious to know if there is any way we can use smartphones and also expect real privacy from basic to advanced prying/spying and cracking techniques?
