The Honey Bear Honey Pot now has a quick install script! You can find the info at the GitHub repo or on https://hydrox.fun/projects/honeybear/ in the “Non-Hard Hat Usage” section.
(I would also love any feedback as this project continues to turn in to a fun learning honeypot project.)

There is a movie coming out entitled “WARDRIVER” and it looks to be ever so slightly about wardriving.
*Please* tell me someone I know was a technical consultant on this flick!

Their necks got hot and they switched to Patagonia vests.

Ah. There’s the reason…it’s about money, just for the price of freedom.
It always comes back to a bag of silver.

We're back from #defcon33, we have slept a bit, and now it's time to congratulate the winners of the CTF that was running in the SSH honeypot on my head throughout #defcon.

If I walk in to a #defcon party and someone is playing this silly song I would lose it!
Someone should definitely do that. https://defcon.social/@t0rch/114966885791920548

Meanwhile, the more I hear about the new season the more psyched I get!

There is definitely a performative element to this, but also I think there is still a belief that you can talk to Trump's aides and get somewhere.
I'm not sure that's true at all for this incoming admin.

Long blocks of well formatted and reasoned text backed by facts certainly were an important part of the first Trump administration's decision making, so I'm sure this will work and not be flatly ignored or used as a McDonald's napkin.

I was just sitting in my office and noticed a bunch of device messages popping up on my iPhone.
I AppleJuice attacked myself because I plugged my hard hat in to my shelf and the random AppleJuice attack went off.
I worked so hard on that feature, and the only person I manage to prank was me! #hardhatbrigade #defcon
