You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Gluttony Section for Search Engines

It's good time to remind ourselves of the Gell-Mann amnesia effect.

Are there technological reasons to believe that "AI" and quantum compuing will "merge" somehow, or do ppl only say this because both things sound sci-fi-ish?

Interesting report on threat actor using XSS to phish Group-IB employess (via @simontsui) :

https://www.group-ib.com/blog/resumelooters/

At first glance these appear to be stored XSS attacks, so not relevant to xss-reflections.

Case in point: I just reviewed a report where the author apparently used an LLM to decode base64. The result has nothing to do with the input, but it's pretty easy to find its sources on StackOverflow.

The person has several years of experience and a decent CV too, currently working in a senior position.
