A post claims that "Hackers increasingly abuse Cloudflare Tunnels for stealthy connections"

Tunnels are supposed to create outbound-only connections to the Cloudflare network but are apparently also used "for nefarious purposes, such as gaining stealthy persistent access to the victim's network, evading detection, and exfiltrating compromised devices' data."

[en] Longread: Birth and Making of Surveillance Technology, Backdoors etc., Presumably to Oppress Racial Minorities etc.

Interesting read. Apparently shows involvement of Hikvision, Huawei, Dahua, according to the text. Might help the rest of the world to better understand why the US is inclined to ban such companies ...

Chromo-encryption method encodes secrets with color

Cryptography (sort of): Chromo-encryption method encodes secrets with color
