BellTroX has also been used to target U.S. organizations working on net neutrality, presumably at the behest of a different client or clients that were opposed to that reform.

I'm looking forward to some positive changes following this!

Senate Confirms Anna Gomez to Lead FCC

"As a Democratic commissioner, she’s poised to help chair Jessica Rosenworcel pass parts of the Biden administration’s agenda that have no support from Republican commissioners, particularly restoring net neutrality rules that were rolled back under the Trump administration."

This news is fitting for this word: Finally. fiercewireless.com/wireless/se

But sadly, it's way too late and with all but gutting all federal agency powers by this time next year (1), the online for all to bridge the digital divide fight is going to be at the local and state levels and it will be even more important.

Great news, the is now controlled by Dems: Anna Gomez, a telecommunications ATTY, was confirmed by the Sen. The FCC has the opp.to pursue actions w/o the support of the Republican commissioners -could incl. a push to return to rules, which seek to prevent internet service providers from slowing or blocking service for select websites, for which Pres Biden has voiced his support. The FCC likely will give greater scrutiny to proposed mergers😃. deadline.com/2023/09/fcc-senat

Marcus Hutchins at Malwaretech posted about a new "feature" of Chrome that reports to 3rd parties what websites you visit.

This means YOUR CLIENTS can have the URLs of your TELEHEALTH system reported to 3rd parties.

So -- for example, if you use Psychology Today for telehealth, they will know the client is seeing a mental health professional. If you use Zoom, they will LIKELY just know the client went on a Zoom call -- but then you have a unique Zoom URL link, so its possible someone will bother to catalogue that your particular Zoom link is medical. So, again, same problem.

This is not a HIPAA problem under your control, but perhaps some client education on browser privacy settings is in order?

For people who for some reason still want to use Chrome:
Settings > Privacy >Ad privacy, then just toggle everything off.
