The EU is Destroying Privacy and exempting police, military, intelligence, and EU officials from the scanning. Your messages get monitored. Theirs stay private. The UK arrests 30+ people per day for online speech. They're removing jury trials for 90% of eligible defendants. youtu.be/_NY3h-0c5Sg

Asking the surveillance state to pardon someone for resisting the surveillance state while handing them your identity on a silver platter is not the way. youtu.be/RUxL-KMCeHk

Intel Shadow Stack prevents ROP attacks through hardware-enforced call/return matching. CET shadow stacks can be corrupted through exception handling vulnerabilities.

Hardware enclaves provide confidential computing but aren't immune to side channels. SGX, TrustZone, and AMD SEV all face microarchitectural timing attacks.

Microarchitectural load port contention creates covert channels between processes. Load/store unit scheduling can leak information about concurrent execution.

Which technique bypasses modern stack protection through partial pointer overwrites? Stack canaries can't detect corruption when only function pointer LSBs are modified.

Intel Linear Address Masking allows tagged pointers in user space. LAM enables memory tagging but doesn't prevent all spatial safety violations.

ARM Confidential Compute Architecture protects VMs from hypervisor access. CCA realms provide hardware-enforced isolation but require trusted firmware.

CPU prefetcher side channels leak memory access patterns across security boundaries. Prefetch instructions can be used to probe memory layouts.

Kernel CFI (Control Flow Integrity) validates indirect calls through type checking. CFI can be bypassed through type confusion vulnerabilities.

Memory disambiguation attacks exploit CPU store forwarding mechanisms. Speculative loads can receive data from mispredicted stores.
