Look at the state of this.
LARUS Ltd sitting on AFRINIC IP addresses but leasing them to a company in Hong Kong and then when they receive an abuse report for THEIR IP ADDRESSES they don't even handle it but say "contact our customer". That's not how this is supposed to work. It's not how any of this is supposed to work.
Absolute scum carpetbaggers.

Does anyone know how to report abuse on #Gravatar? Someone, possibly a spammer, created a profile impersonating me. There is no "report abuse" option on the Gravatar site. And https://wordpress.com/abuse/<…

UK becomes first country to ban default bad passwords on IoT devices
Britain now has IoT hardware standards that ban weak or easily guessable default passwords such as “admin” or “12345." Manufacturers are also required to publish contact details so users can report bugs.

The UK is the first country to ban default passwords on IoT devices.

This should have been the industry standard long ago. It is much better now than it was a decade ago, but it still happens way too often. I recently set up a new enterprise device with the default user/pass of admin:admin.
The UK ban on default bad passwords should benefit the globe.

Metasurface spectrometers beyond resolution-sensitivity constraints
Optical spectroscopy plays an essential role across scientific research and industry for non-contact materials analysis1-3, increasingly through in-situ or portable platforms4-6. However, when considering low-light-level applications, conventional spectrometer designs necessitate a compromise between their resolution and sensitivity7,8, especially as device and detector dimensions are scaled down. Here, we report on a miniaturizable spectrometer platform where light throughput onto the detector…
