Could you elaborate on your claim that there's flaws in Motorola's AES encryption?


I'd assuming they're talking about TETRA, presumably one of the export versions (I don't think TEA2 (only available to European public safety orgs) is known to be broken at this point, though its age and obscure nature wouldn't give you much confidence).

There's a good talk on it here: https://media.ccc.de/v/37c3-11761-all_cops_are_broadcasting


Their implementation added one more round of encryption for unknown reasons, which turns out weakened AES enough to break it with a GPU cluster. Google looks to be well scrubbed of the story but it featured on HN a while back.


Yeah it's easy for them to draft up laws from their ivory towers


When I hear of "MangoDB", I remember this: https://github.com/dcramer/mangodb

Funny how there's an actual project with the same name.

I don't see why a language like JS couldn't be used for evaluating rules when sandboxed. Looks like there's a project that does just that: https://developers.google.com/caja/


Wait... Rebecca Black was the most searched for? WTF?


This is "fastest rising", not "most searched".
