What happened
A collection of security and privacy commentary covering connected-car surveillance and data sharing, device-linking abuse to access WhatsApp and Signal accounts, a computationally impractical RSA signature-forgery technique against unpadded signatures, AI-enabled cyber misuse and self-jailbreaking, evasive malicious npm packages, and reverse engineering of Flock ALPR cameras that detect and track people, vehicles, and other objects. The material is primarily analytical and does not document a single confirmed incident or broadly exploitable vulnerability.
