    eMudhra: The Certificate Authority whose private key is "4"; Chinese AI models target Western companies with insecure generated code; Tor's 333 exit nodes infected with ebury; Claude discovers origin of NIST curve seeds; Privacy Coins by ARKM

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Today's tech-focused episode covers the eMudhra Certificate Authority breach in India and the "ebury" info stealer infecting over 300 Tor exit nodes. We'll explain what certificate authorities do for web security, analyze the current breach situation, and investigate how compromised exit nodes enable credential theft. The investigation began when someone noticed SSH fingerprint changes indicating man-in-the-middle attacks while connecting to familiar servers. This episode contains strong language and adult themes, listener discretion advised.

    Thanks to the listeners of Wylie, TX; Japanese folklore behind Tengu; Who is really pulling the strings of this Administration? The Lesson of Divide & Conquer; White communities and "The Talk"; Shawn Ryan/Leah files drama; Lutnick's ties to Cantor

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! The host dives into a whirlwind of conspiracy theories and political commentary, covering the Epstein emails investigation and DOJ's alleged doxing of trafficking victims, claims of media suppression around the Kirk assassination, the Ukrainian war being framed as a manufactured refugee crisis, Jared Kushner's ties to Israeli and Russian networks via openAI funding, and the business dealings of defense-tech influencers like Sean Ryan. A central fable—"The Farmer, the Dead Pig, and the Rats"—frames the episode's theme of manufactured division, followed by a reading of John Derbyshire's racially charged "talk" essay and a profile of Howard Lutnik's 9/11 survival and subsequent Cabinet role amid Epstein-associated scrutiny. This episode contains strong language and adult themes, listener discretion advised.

    Could I interest you in my 28 day articulation training? A look at the life of Christopher Hitchens; time to talk about TEEs; Israeli's ad-tech company behind mercenary spyware

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Episode covers three main topics: Christopher Hitchens tribute — The host opens with a clip of Hitchens criticizing organized religion, then runs through his biography: his socialist origins, the post-9/11 shift to neoconservatism, his 2003 Iraq War support, his "Four Horsemen of New Atheism" role with God Is Not Great (2007), his memoir Hitch-22 (2010), his esophageal cancer diagnosis and refusal to convert, and his death in December 2011. Hitchens's "Razor" (unevidenced claims can be dismissed) and his waterboarding stunt for Vanity Fair are highlighted as signature moments. Adfection / Citizen Lab spyware exposé — The host summarizes a Citizen Lab report showing how an Israeli company (referred to as "Discover Tech," linked to NSO Group through board member Ehud Barak) used Google, Microsoft, and Yandex ad-tech infrastructure to deliver 0-click malware to targeted users, including Al Jazeera journalists. The mechanism: fake ads served as code blobs to uniquely-identified users, requiring no clicks. The host explains watering-hole attacks as an analogy, criticizes surveillance-based advertising as inherently insecure, and calls for ad blockers and JavaScript-free browsing as defensive measures. TEEs and Private AI skepticism — The host critiques trusted execution environments (Intel SGX, AMD SEV, AMD TDX) as a foundation for privacy tools like Confer. A cited paper by Alin Tomescu (MIT) catalogs remote attestation forgery bugs, physical extraction attacks, and liveness failures across SGX/TDX/SEV platforms since 2018. The conclusion: don't entrust valuable secrets to TEEs, especially when physical access is in your threat model. This episode contains strong language and adult themes, listener discretion advised.

    Podcasters Cut: Building in Public - Why I'm Making My Own Secure Communication Suite

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! This one's a little different. After a stretch of news-and-commentary episodes, I'm a bit spent on reacting to headlines, so for episode 35 I'm putting on my builder's cap and talking about something I'm actually making. That something is a secure, private communication suite: a messenger built around the design philosophy of enterprise communication platforms and encrypted messengers, but with the anti-surveillance, anti-censorship, and censorship-resistance principles baked in from the very first commit instead of bolted on later. There's no product to announce yet — we're not at v1, and I'm deliberately holding back the specifics. But there is a why, and it's worth walking through. This episode covers where the idea came from, the privacy philosophy driving the design, and a long, candid read-through of the Session Messenger whitepaper — the document that changed my mind about recommending Session. If you've ever wanted to hear the messy, boring, in-progress part of building a privacy product, this is that episode.

    The Dearborn Independent: How the Federal Reserve was created; Former IDF soldiers run child trafficking ring in Colombia; Matthew Arndt's viral crashout aftermath

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Episode 34 is a clip show. Cryptowires plays a handful of audio clips and reacts to each one, with commentary in between. Segments include: Henry Ford and the Federal Reserve. The first clip revisits Henry Ford's reputation, the publication of the Dearborn Independent, the lawsuits that followed, and claims about the origins and purpose of the Federal Reserve, plus Ford's opposition to U.S. entry into World War II. Paul Buchanan on Congress and foreign lobbying. An archived clip of political commentator Paul Buchanan arguing that Congress is unable to stand up to pro-Israel lobbying, tied back to foreign aid spending and Israeli bond purchases discussed in Episode 33. Reaction to the Jake Shields / Annie Altman interview. A full review of the recent interview, including discussion of Sam Altman, Tucker Carlson's questioning of him, and Jared Kushner's brother's involvement in OpenAI's for-profit restructuring. The host's verdict: a soft-ball interview that missed its opportunities. Matthew Arndt, Green Party candidate for Wisconsin's 6th Congressional District. The biggest story of the episode: Arndt's arrest following a road-rage confrontation, the hate-crime enhancement he faces, a reading of his campaign site (endthecartel.com) and its "America Only" platform, plus Arndt's own response video and an upcoming interview with Scott Free that the host will cover next episode. Child predator sting operations. A viral clip from an independent sting operation, commentary on the work of amateur predator catchers, and the question of how often these incidents go unreported. The 2018 Colombia trafficking sting. A look back at a sting that targeted Israeli nationals on tourist visas, whether the case was ever fully prosecuted, and what happens to these networks after they're dismantled. Plus: a note on podcast distribution — why some platforms take 24–48 hours to post new episodes — and a request that listeners follow the show on their platform of choice rather than streaming from the web. Available on iHeartRadio, TuneIn, Deezer, Podverse, PodLP, Podcast Guru, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, CurioCaster, Castro, Castbox, Castomatic, Listen Notes, and Podcast Index.

    Jake Shields interviews Annie Altman (OpenAI CEO's sister), Tor and privacy technologies as psyops, Ledger reseller ships backdoored hardware wallets, set your calendar for the first ever live-streamed execution in the US!

    Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Israel/Gaza commentary: Claims Netanyahu knew of the October 7 attack in advance and issued a stand down order to retain power, citing Israeli official accounts saying the event "fast tracked" plans by 20 years. Frames it as "never let a good crisis go to waste." Says he'll save a related sound bite for a later episode. Annie Altman / Sam Altman: Notes Jake Shields interviewed Annie Altman that day (Fight Back podcast on Rumble). Background on Sam Altman's 2023 ouster from OpenAI, his sister's sexual assault allegations against him, and former colleagues' characterizations of him. Says mainstream outlets aren't covering it because of Microsoft's stake in OpenAI. Says he hasn't watched the interview yet, will reserve judgment, and plans to react to it on episode 34. "The Dark Web is a Psyop" (video by We're in Hell): Tor's origins at the U.S. Naval Research Lab; the argument that Tor was deliberately popularized among non-spy users to give spies cover; government funding of Tor via the Broadcasting Board of Governors and Open Technology Fund; Yasha Levine's FOIA-obtained emails showing a cozy relationship between Tor developers and federal agencies; Jacob Appelbaum's role and misconduct allegations; NSA's "egotistical giraffe" program and the honeypot argument; Silk Road/Ross Ulbricht. The video's thesis — that the real problem is cybernetics/individualist tech solutions replacing political ones — plus the host's own take: Tor is probably surveyable, VPNs are "glorified proxies" that keep logs and will comply with subpoenas, and the same honeypot logic could apply to Monero. Also muses that filing a FOIA request on yourself would flag you to the government. Ledger wallet scam: Reports on Ledger investigating lost funds from users in Southeast Asia who bought devices from reseller CryptoBillis, which allegedly backdoored hardware. Ledger has asked the reseller to pause sales; users who bought in the last 90 days are advised not to set up the device, and those who did should move assets to a new device. Host's position: he doesn't pity the victims — buy from official channels only, shipping cost is an investment in protecting your funds. Proton and age verification: Reads a TechRadar piece on Proton's new interactive map tracking the spread of age verification laws (18 European countries, 49 US states with proposals, 27 with implemented checks). Criticizes Proton CEO Andy Yen for decrying identification requirements while Proton takes credit card payments, and criticizes privacy_guides for favorable coverage of Proton. Nidal Malik Hasan execution live stream (main story): Pentagon confirmed the firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be live streamed December 3 at 1pm local. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the public should be able to watch. Host reads background on Hasan — his religious devotion, his ideological reasoning, his MD and psychiatry residency at Walter Reed, his 2013 court martial conviction — then works through a Washington Post article on the story. Host supports televised capital punishment in principle and questions why Hasan was chosen as the first case, speculating his religion played a role, and floats (as a joke/conspiracy take) that the stream could be a test of AI video generation.
