What is Cable Haunt?

Cable Haunt is a critical vulnerability found in cable modems from various manufacturers across the world. The vulnerability enables remote attackers to gain complete control of a cable modem, through an endpoint on the modem. Your cable modem is in charge of the internet traffic for all devices on the network. Cable Haunt might therefore be exploited to intercept private messages, redirect traffic, or participation in botnets.

ISP Ordered to Hand Over Pirates’ Details After Cracked Software ‘Phoned Home’

Alleged pirates who installed cracked copies of expensive Siemens CAD tools on their computers are facing potentially huge settlement demands after the software "phoned home" informing the company of the illicit use. The Australian Federal Court has ordered ISP Telstra to hand over the personal details of the suspected infringers.

Reports of movie companies tracking down alleged pirates in order to extract cash settlements are commonplace today.

After IP addresses are monitored in BitTorrent swarms, companies regularly obtain court orders requiring ISPs to hand over the personal details of alleged infringers, to whom they send correspondence threatening a lawsuit, unless they pay up of course.

On first view, a case in Australia seems to follow a similar pattern but the details reveal a more interesting set of circumstances.

In an application filed at the Federal Court in Australia, Siemens Industry Software Inc asked the Court to compel local ISP Telstra to reveal the identities and personal details of “20 potential infringing users” who used “cracked” versions of its software.

However, instead of tracking these alleged pirates in BitTorrent swarms, Siemens obtained evidence of their infringement directly from their computers.

Dutch ISPs Unblock Pirate Bay Proxies, Because They Can

Dutch ISPs Ziggo and XS4ALL have unblocked dozens of Pirate Bay proxies and mirrors. While the companies must block the torrent site itself, the latest court order supersedes the injunction which covered the site's proxies. Anti-piracy group BREIN characterizes the ISPs move as "shenanigans" and "downright silly."

The Pirate Bay is blocked in dozens of countries around the world. In most cases, ISPs are ordered to take action after a relatively short court proceeding.

In the Netherlands, however, the process took more than a decade, and it’s still not completely over yet.

German government decides on intelligence surveillance like in Snowden times

The German Federal Intelligence Service is to hack into mobile phone and Internet providers and monitor the communications of all customers. The German government has passed a bill to this effect. A new body, not the Federal Data Protection Commissioner, is to be responsible for oversight.

The German government today decided to again massively expand the powers of the Federal Intelligence Service. The cabinet approved the bill to amend the BND law, which will then go to the Bundestag.

The grand coalition had passed the current BND law in 2017 in response to the revelations by Edward Snowden and the intelligence investigation committee. At the time, our conclusion was, "Everything the BND does will simply be legalized. And even expanded." In May, the Federal Constitutional Court ruled the law unconstitutional and overturned it. Now the federal government is making a new attempt, which is likely to end up in court again.

We published the first draft in September and the second draft in November. Experts criticized the drafts: think tanks, journalists, press freedom NGOs, Internet associations and the Federal Data Protection Commissioner. Despite the opportunity to comment, the government did not change much.

Hacking, mass surveillance, metadata
Because the current BND law is based on unconstitutional basic assumptions, the Chancellor's Office has almost completely rewritten the law. We had already reported on many of the details. In the future, the foreign intelligence service will be allowed to legally hack not only individuals and devices, but also servers and service providers, including entire mobile and Internet providers.

How ISPs block websites with DPI - Technical Dive (Deep Packet Inspection)
https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=hkwenjoUgyg&local=true

This is a rough overview of how DPI works. It is important to realize that your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is your gateway to the internet, they have the ability to read all the packets that go through your internet connection. This may be illegal in some countries, maybe not.

Most applications now use secure, encrypted channels (Client to server, not necessarily end to end) - such as websites using HTTPS, which means the ISP cannot see the actual messages / information you exchange. But even with HTTPS, or a 3rd party #DNS, it is possible to know what websites you visit, in most cases.

This video covers how that information is "leaked" and how ISPs like Jio, Airtel, etc. are able to block #torrent and porn websites, even on HTTPS.
