Deploying IPv6-Mostly Access Networks
Dual stack is the most common way of deploying IPv6 in access networks. A recent standard defines IPv6-mostly access networks, providing IPv4 connectivity only for legacy devices while allowing modern devices to run IPv6-only. It is already well supported and allows network operators to gradually p…

Incroyable!!

Une pétition pour l’abrogation de la loi Duplomb franchit les 500 000 signatures, ouvrant la possibilité d’un débat à l’Assemblée nationale
La conférence des présidents de l’Assemblée nationale peut désormais décider de classer la pétition ou d’organiser un débat. Dans ce cas, la loi ne serait pas réexaminée sur le fond et encore moins éventuellement abrogée.

Foreign students will be required to unlock their social media profiles
to allow US diplomats to review their online activity
before receiving educational and exchange visas, the state department has announced.
Those who fail to do so will be suspected of hiding that activity from US officials.
The new guidance, unveiled by the state department on Wednesday, directs US diplomats to conduct an online presence review to look for
“any indications of hostility towa…

In Memoriam: John L. Young, Cryptome Co-Founder
John L. Young, who died March 28 at age 89 in New York City, was among the first people to see the need for an online library of official secrets, a place where the public could find out things that governments and corporations didn’t want them to know. He made real the idea – revolutionary in its...

Herr Steinmeier, eigentlich Bundespräsident Deutschlands, diskriminiert den Iran, obwohl das Land Opfer eines Angriffskrieges ist. Wenn es um ein Statement gegen den Krieg geht, hätte er auch den israelischen Botschafter nicht mitnehmen dürfen.
Die Iraner haben schon recht. Über Jahrzehnte haben Europäer mit dem iranischen Regime zusammengearbeitet und es letztlich unterstützt. Und nun tun sie so, als wäre das das Letzte. Eine Verlogenheit. Das ist auch mein Eindruck.

Bundespräsident und diplomatisches Korps: Zum Botschafterausflug nimmt Steinmeier den iranischen Vertreter nicht mit
Bundespräsident Steinmeier unternimmt kommende Woche seinen alljährlichen Ausflug mit dem diplomatischen Korps, allerdings ohne den Vertreter Irans. Auch andere Botschafter sind nicht eingeladen.

Mollissez pas, je compte bien faire une capture d'écran au passage du million. #DuplombDansLAile

Narrowing the Gap between TEEs Threat Model and Deployment Strategies
Confidential Virtual Machines (CVMs) provide isolation guarantees for data in use, but their threat model does not include physical level protection and side-channel attacks. Therefore, current deployments rely on trusted cloud providers to host the CVMs' underlying infrastructure. However, TEE attestations do not provide information about the operator hosting a CVM. Without knowing whether a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) runs within a provider's infrastructure, a user cannot accurately a…

Towards a Non-Binary View of IPv6 Adoption
Twelve years have passed since World IPv6 Launch Day, but what is the current state of IPv6 deployment? Prior work has examined IPv6 status as a binary: can you use IPv6, or not? As deployment increases we must consider a more nuanced, non-binary perspective on IPv6: how much and often can a user or a service use IPv6? We consider this question as a client, server, and cloud provider. Considering the client's perspective, we observe user traffic. We see that the fraction of IPv6 traffic a user …
