Software, gingercats, all the important stuff!
So I moved home recently and what I didn’t realise, and what was also a very pleasant surprise, was that the new home has a fiber optic link (or fttp if you want the nice acronym!). So now via a not so great gigabit link via my ISP’s cheap and rather crappy supplied modem. It’s not rocket ship fast but should hopefully be a lot better than the old ADSL2 link that the poor thing limped along on. Fingers crossed that this should work faster and we should have longer uptimes!
Had a quick look at this today and it’s a doozy! Patrick Wardle has created a small python script that dumps the data from the macOS, notifications database. This is a whole lot of information that you may not want anyone to see, let alone audit. Be interesting if and how the Mac os X dev team may manage this issue.

Saw this today….”Tunna is a set of tools which will wrap and tunnel any TCP communication over HTTP. It can be used to bypass network restrictions in fully firewalled environments”.

This will need more investigation – if it is what it purports to be … a lot of trouble!
