It has been reported that a 125-decibel sound level was recorded at the Scotland v Haiti game during the pre match anthem singing of Flower of Scotland - the loudest ever noise level at a World Cup match. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

6 months later, @ZPosLtd's apps are still running over #HTTP #passwords & payment info... all sent in clear text. The server is still running PHP 5.5.9! If your business relies on ZPOS, look elsewhere. Absolutely awful #security
Update on the #ZPOS case: Brief background: Made dozens of attempts since 2020 to report critical #security concerns to ZPOS, all ignored. A canary died with "someone is attempting to sign in to <redacted> with your ZPOS password". The password is 24 characters long, cryptographically random (from @1password) and never re-used. Then, someone tried to use my card. It was becoming clear that someone knows the password and assumes I reuse them. In order to establish if ZPOS (and/or my account) has been breached, I SAR them. -- Despite citing sections of #GDPR which outline the right to compensation for breaches of legislation and providing irrefutable proof of each particular of claim, it was dismissed because I couldn't quantify the unquantifiable. The particulars were: 1) Failure to reply to a legally submitted SAR in time. Finding: *shrug* - They replied eventually, no tangible loss. No loss, no compensation. Fits with standard "make them whole" rules, but ignores GDPR rights. 2) Only supplying a partial SAR response Finding: Despite showing proof that data was missing, this too was dismissed. 3) Failure to encrypt the SAR response sent by email, providing everything in a plain excel spreadsheet Finding: "GDPR/ICO doesn't state it should be encrypted, you can't demonstrate it's been leaked, thus no damages. I don't find their response to be unsafe." The irony... the court's own email warns that email isn't safe and could be read by anyone. Ultimately, the defendant sought to & succeeded in benefiting from it's own non-compliance with @ICOnews #GDPR. By failing to supply the evidence I need to bring action, it was held against me. GDPR rights are only as effect as a court's willingness to apply them. In my case, they were meaningless and the service remains vulnerable. If someone in my position can't enforce their rights, the general public has virtually no chance. #PHP5 #XSS #SQLi #iDOR #CSP

To clear up any confusion: There are TWO bans on under 16's access to social media in the UK. The first is at the app level and this comes into play next year. It will require selected social media apps to prompt for age verification when accessing them. The second more insidious one is happening much sooner. This one is the 'nudity detection' feature and this one operates on device level. It will require every adult to show a form of ID in order to operate their phones and tablets without restrictions/monitoring. The voluntary deadlines to tech companies to implement this is around early September this year. If Apple, Google and others don’t implement device-level monitoring by then, the government has said it will bring forward legislation to make it mandatory. People saying "Just use a VPN!" are not understanding how this works.
