Wrong, it's a slight of hand. This is not about individual cameras, this is about the network that uses all cameras together to follow you no matter what you do, no matter where you go, people shouldn't have a government that follows their every step by using AI and networked devices. If this was about individual cameras you would have a point, it is not, it is unreasonable to allow a government to exist that creates a panopticon of this scale, citizens shouldn't feel like they are inside a prison and the warden is watching.
The attack is against 7-round AES. As I read the abstract, they claim to optimise an attack from 2013.
Cryptanalysis of 7-Round AES via the Algebraic Structure of its S-box
Milad Nasr and Nicholas Carlini
The AES S-Box is not a random permutation; we show that its algebraic structure allows for improved attacks on 7 rounds in the single-key setting. We focus
our efforts on extending a 2105 chosen plaintext and 299-time algorithm designed by Derbez, Fouque, and Jean [DFJ13]. Our core contribution is an algebraic Möbius bridge that exploits the invert-then-affine-transform structure of the AES S-box to eliminate one of the nine guessed key bytes required by [DFJ13]. This immediately leads to a factor-of-256 reduction in the number of key guesses required. But calculating the necessary Möbius Transform is not free, and the work required to perform the naïve calculation cancels the savings. We therefore present several improvements that reduce the time required to calculate this transform; depending on the exact methods used for accounting, we reduce the attack’s runtime to between 289.3 and 291.4, at the same data complexity. This paper presents these improvements along with the computational techniques we used to help us empirically gain confidence in the correctness of our findings, something that was particularly important because these improvements were discovered autonomously via a large language model fully end to end. We conclude by remarking on the future of LLM-assisted research in cryptography and computer security more generally.
No, it's "Don't use underscores in your username at all".
You don't need to worry about them. It's sleeping colorless green ideas that you need to worry about.
in an unregulated market (what consumers need), new businesses are able to create new competition if there is money to be saved for consumers.
Just before take-off isn't a bad time from the perspective of temporal relevance. Just before landing might be better, but take-off is the second riskiest part of the flight.
There are passenger training courses but they're fairly expensive, aimed at people who fly a lot for business.
But ten yards does, so it's a 50/50 guess as to whether the error is in the original unit or the conversion. At least it's only half an order of magnitude out...
purchase of four Tahoes where over three point eight million dollars went to the interception equipment
Almost a million dollars per MITM tower? That seems a bit steep, doesn't it?

Consumers don't recycle: they place items in the recycling bins, with or without various preliminary steps to clean and separate said items. Some of the items may, due to lack of cleaning or separation, affect the viability of recycling others of the items. The goal of public policy should be to encourage a mindset and habits which facilitate the recycling of the items which can be viably recycled (where "viably" ideally takes into account all externalities), not to encourage thoughtless mixing of non-recyclable waste into recyclable waste.
in the free market businesses form and compete for consumer money with other businesses, it is the competition that is pro consumer. Unions, like any other political formation, exists to protect special interests, preventing businesses from competing to the best of their ability and pushing prices up - anti consumer.
Businesses are pro-consumer by definition, unless they are government subsidized. Being anti-union (as I am) is being as pro-consumer as possible. Unions push prices up, consumers want lower prices, unions are anti-consumer.
I suspect GP's point is that every malware blocker in every browser is likely to treat this kind of script as hostile, except for Chrome because Google are currently nerfing the ability for blockers to intercept hostile scripts in one of the most blatantly user-hostile changes they've ever made.
If Apple play along with Safari then every other browser and its malware blocking plugins are about to be toast in a huge retrograde step for Internet privacy. But not even Cloudflare is going to get away with blocking every iOS device if Apple continues to allow blockers to intercept this kind of script.
Did anyone mention recently that simultaneously controlling both the most popular web browser and several of the most popular ad-supported web properties might be a little anticompetitive, and that it's about time that Google was broken up? It's probably time for that drum to start beating a bit louder again.
