      XPost: alt.comp.os.windows-10, alt.comp.microsoft.windows, alt.c       mp.os.windows-11       From: address@is.invalid              Arlen,              > Rudolph, let's keep this focused on the technical issue rather than tone.              Answer my questions, and I will consider it.              So, when are you going to explain how you being able to read BSSID's and       coordinates from Apples database is a privacy problem ?              > For you to tell me "I don't get it" a hundreds times, doesn't mean that I       > don't get it when I simply reproduced what researchers said could be done.              Kiddo, being able to repeat what others have detailed doesn't mean you       understood what you where doing.              > Worse, I, myself, could easily track any BSSID in the world.              Kiddo, I've asked you several times to explain why, according to you, that       that is a problem. You have refused to do so every time. No, *YOU DO NOT       GET IT*.              Proof of that ? If you would than you would have been able to explain       yourself to me/us. The fact that you don't ...              > That's not random.              Yes, it is. Tell me, what is *the name of the person* behind the BSSID's       you have been tracking ?              Ofcourse, you have no idea.              > These flaws effectively exposes large portions of Apple's WPS database       > to anyone who knows how to query it, which is what the researchers said.              Its not a flaw, its on purpose. Kiddo, you have *NO* idea what that       database is for, but you have already drawn your conclusions. You are, as I       mentioned a few times, *WILLFULLY IGNORANT*.              And it doesn't help that *I already asked you* to consider what the purpose       of that database is, and you simply refuse to do so.              > I have no intention of tracking people, but I proved it's trivial to do.       > Just like the security researchers said it was.              Is that true ? So, if I pick a name than you can, assiming he's got a BSSID       with him, tell me where that person is traveling ? Yes or no ? And       ofcourse, explain your answer. :-)              Regards,       Rudy Wieser              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
