Anyone else remember the fitbit fiasco? They released all the GPS data that had been collected to try to make a "community" feeling among users. That way someone can see "oh, I have a many people who run laps in the same park that I do." The part that backfired is the fact that the US military had not banned or limited the use of these devices. So, you have young me, hardcore into fitness, in the military, and wearing their Fitbit as a watch. So, basically, all the time. This meant that their movements were being tracked 24/7. This lead to the outline of every base, every layer of security on every base, and the exposure of previously unknown military installations around the world. You had the obvious ones in the Antarctic, but also some in the US's southwest desert. My favorite one was a circular installation about a two miles in diameter.

serious question, since you were involved in that job. does anyone know why they would use fixed IPs..? i mean, that is a rookie mistake. why would they not use a domain where they can dynamically change the IP? why wouldn’t they use a VPN or some other means on such a domain so as to make it almost impossible to determine where the data was actually being sent?

[@xpusostomos]

​@@ryan-el9erhow would a VPN look any less nefarious? It's the same thing, packets going where they shouldn't. As for domains vs IP addresses how does that help you? Ownership of an IP address is more firmly rooted than a domain, and you don't have to worry about domain service being available... I mean, if you had a network router in a major hub, why would you allow it to do domain lookups? Might as well block that.

In the UK, the government realized that their government issued SUVs were being tracked. In their SUV, one of the electronic parts that was made in chyna had a tracker built into it when it was manufactured and sealed shut. Here's the scary part, they didn't install this part after the SUV was bought. They installed this device in a bunch of them, knowing that when the government purchased a new SUV, it would already be installed and ready for activation.

They invite our engineers over to the mainland and pretend to swoon over their prestige. "Please speak at our university. Oh, by the way, can you bring us more drawings and specs next time?

Its definitely something to be aware of. To a degree its a benefit versus risk thing, as in there are people that work at or visit sensitive sites that should not be using smart cars (with cameras / mikes - not just EVs!) at all. Whereas at the other end of the spectrum there are people that would never be of interest to intelligence agencies. Here in NZ, I have a Tesla and its extremely unlikely any of my travels or conversations would be of any use, however I'm aware I could be monitored by the USA (who can do pretty much whatever they want Internationally - as demonstrated time and again, not so different to what China can / will do). However the benefits of the car overwhelmingly outweigh the possibility of being tracked / monitored. I'm a bit more wary of Chinese cars for sure but would consider owning one. Yes it would be great if it was possible to stop anyone spying on your car but there is just no practical way of doing that currently (and retain all the benefits such as mobile data, safety, communications etc).

I drive a 1979 Subaru. Gets me everywhere I need to go. Don't care about any of the features and don't even want them.

My friend drives an 82 Oldsmobile Toronado diesel. Same story but a much bigger car with a very nice diesel V8 and the most comfortable interior of any car I have ever sat in. I will never buy a car made after the year 1994, preferably never one made after 1990. Neither will he. My boyfriend is also becoming tired of the stupid electronics in his car and we are looking for a 1960s-1980s station wagon for him as well. It's not just the spying stuff, but the fact that every single part on these newer cars costs many times more, and there is just generally more stuff to break. Plus they just have too much stuff in general. I like a car where I know what every part does and how to repair it, not a car full of mystery black boxes with no information available on how they work or even what they do. Not to mention who can afford a new car anymore (talking about the US), when everything is at least $20,000. 7 years ago you could buy a car for 10,000 dollars. Nobody can afford a new car here anymore, everyone is fixing the ones they have. I don't want to take out a loan, to buy a car I don't even like, when I can spend $1000-5000 on one I do, put a few hundred dollars in parts in it, and drive it forever, just fixing it as things break, as long as I have it undercoated with oil in the winter so the salt doesn't rust it out.
