A tamagotchi-like device for harvesting codes transmitted over radio, seems like a fun toy
this is one of those things where I kinda want one despite knowing I would never actually use it
I had the money when the kickstarter first started and considered buying it, but came to the same conclusion. kinda regret it, but it was probably the right call. Can pretty much do most of what I would’ve used it for with an esp32 or something anyway.
My pwnagotchi is pretty cool though.
Speaking of which: I’m cooking up an app platform for this purpose on ESP32: https://github.com/ByteWelder/Tactility
Nifty!
I believe Canada has determined that small hobby radios are too dangerous for the free citizens of the west to own, and I love that for them.
They wrote a fun reply to that where they go over what car thieves actually use (not a flipper zero) and how to hack the sort of radio systems that the flipper zero can handle with wire cut from a pair of earbuds: https://blog.flipper.net/response-to-canadian-government/
Hello? Based department?
Sort of reminds me of when Signal somehow managed to get ahold of that Cellebrite phone hacking thing and reverse engineered it.
Their customer list has included authoritarian regimes in Belarus, Russia, Venezuela, and China
I’m sure the actual content of the post is fine though.
I glossed right over that lol. A tldr is that they somehow managed to acquire the phone cracking device the pigs use and they poked around and found out that it’s riddled with vulnerabilities.
