Had a blast presenting at #DEFCON30 today, GitHub repo for TeamFiltration is online! github.com/Flangvik/TeamF… Thank you so much for all the amazing feedback, can't wait to see what this tool looks like in a year now that it's public!

CHAT CONTROL IS BACK → Today the urgent procedure for Chat Control 1.0 was passed. NEXT UP: The EU Parliament is voting on Thursday. If Chat Control passes: your messages, pictures, videos will all be scanned because the law will require it - this removes privacy and welcomes mass surveillance in the EU. What's happening? If Chat Control is passed, it will force client-side scanning - so companies will have to scan the contents of private communications, including encrypted messages and emails, before they are sent. In March, it was voted against, but it's back and it was pushed through via urgent procedure. This changes the rules of the vote (of course to be in favour of chat control). Shockingly, blocking it now requires absolute  majority 361 out of the Parliament's 720 members, to be rejected. This is hard to reach because: ‼️ People who do not vote are AUTOMATICALLY VOTED AS YES-VOTE in this procedure. ‼️ This was tactfully done: it's the summer break, this makes it even harder to reach 361 no-votes. At Tuta, we have been fighting this from the start and we will not backdoor our end-to-end encryption. 🔐❤️ We believe that breaking encryption for everyone is not a solution: It is a surveillance infrastructure that puts journalists, activists, abuse survivors, and citizens at risk. The main vote is Thursday. Please continue to contact your MEPs & reject to Chat Control: fightchatcontrol.eu Share this post, make some noise, and let's fight for our right to privacy. ✊🏻♥️🇪🇺 Pictured: Parliament President Roberta Metsola (EPP) who revived Chat Control 1.0! 😡 #ChatControl #Privacy #DigitalRights #EU #clientsidescanning

@ustayready This is amazing news! So glad you have found what seems to be an effective treatment 🥳🥳

Great news and update from my wife: Nontoxic treatment is working, zero chemo! Tumor shrunk by 26.3% in 2 months. She has clear margins. 7 swollen lymph nodes to 3 (she misspoke). May have surgery approval from 2nd opinion. Tumor burden is low! Dysbiosis almost gone! Praise God!

@ShitSecure Yes Yea it’s more of a fun reference to how I still find myself reading his blogs about stuff I’m doing on a gig, only to find they are from like 2015 😂😭 Adam is usually ahead of his time ❤️😜

@Flangvik Five years ahead? That’s relevant right now and used by a lot of groups for sure already. Even a fully fledged framework can be created and tested like that pretty fast.

Adam dropping TTPs 5 years ahead as usual, can’t wait until 2031 when I’m gonna read this and be like that’s super relevant now! Nice work👏

Coding is largely solved.

24 hour experiment - let's see what happens to the timeline.

Meta HQ right now.

@kmkz_security @chompie1337 /model claude-opus-4-6 not 4.8 but it don't care.

@chompie1337 Got the exact similar behavior yesterday, linked to the guards implemented for Fable maybe ? The timing speai for itself I guess...

It’s a mix of prompt and vibe for smaller stuff, and spec-driven for anything where the context becomes hard to manage. I’ve also had good success with tuning skills to use commit logs and long-term memory, so the AI doesn’t just forget everything or immediately lose important context after chat compaction.

Quick poll to help guide my own workflow. How people are using LLM agents for coding? I'm interested in what people actually do vs what people "should" do. Based on your workflow since Jan 2026, which applies best to how you approach a new development task with a LLM?

@PyroTek3 My condolences, it's a shitty day every dog owner dreads☹️

Last night I said goodbye to Bailey. He made it past 18 years and was a faithful friend & family protector. He will be missed. 😢

Talk is over and reel is finally public. github.com/trustedsec/Reel

@_xpn_ Upward trajectory but holy I miss sleep

@Flangvik LED's make everything l33t. Hope parenthood finds you well dude!

New lights up in the office 💜

I’ve had the privilege of working with @ustayready for a few years now. Nobody should have to carry this weight alone. Please consider donating: givesendgo.com/anchors-for-an… God bless this family.

@studentofthings Ahhhhh, yeah I won’t deny that but still better then 4.8

@Flangvik I agree with that, I just don't agree with the idea that Codex never freaks out.

Most importantly, Codex won’t freak the duck out and refuse to keep working for random reasons stating «cyber bad»

@studentofthings Yes, Sonnet and 4.6 both let most things fly. But Opus 4.8 don't even respect their own Cyber Verification Program 🙃

@Flangvik Ughh. Beg to differ.

Codex is rock solid. Just a constant - does well, no ups and downs. Consistency. Claude - never know what day you are going to get. Claude's spec planning + UI design still outperforming Codex imo, but overall - Codex is leaps and bounds better than Claude as a whole.

My wife wanted to say a few things.. On behalf of my family, I wanted to say thank you for supporting us through this dark season. After seeing the support and donations through GiveSendGo, the season just got a little brighter. It has definitely revived something fierce in me for this infosec community. Here's the link in case you are just seeing this for the first time and want to help get us over the finish line. Please RT for visibility. givesendgo.com/anchors-for-an…
