  • If you have an iPhone you can go ahead and try Flight Mode right now. You’ll see that it disconnects from WiFi and disables cellular. NFC, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi stay powered on, Bluetooth stays active. Yes, latest iOS has Bluetooth tracking protection on by default (varies by country, illegal in some), but it is not completely safe. I’m not sure about NFC and Wi-Fi. If you power the phone off it is unlikely to turn off the radios - they are needed for “find my iPhone” and similar features on Google and Samsung Galaxy phones.

    Overall you can’t be confident that your phone does not reveal your location and identity to “law enforcement”, especially in places where police is well equipped to track you.







  • MIT Technology Review got an exclusive preview of the research

    The article was published 3 days after the arxiv release. How is this an “exclusive preview”?

    Successfully tricking existing models by a few crafted samples doesn’t seem like a significant achievement. Can someone highlight what exactly is interesting here? Anything that can’t be resolved by routine adjustments to loss/evaluation functions?



  • Well, I still don’t see how it does not rhyme.

    Watch it Dutchie

    😒 Even though I am a slim 2-meter tall blonde blue-eyed rude narcissistic guy with a strong Dutch accent living in Amsterdam, eating sandwiches for lunch, even though I can ride a bike and skipper a ship in any weather with equal ease, and I do enjoy making fun of Brits, I am not Dutch. I also drink more tea than you do :P

    That does not sound close. The slavic* word for peace is me-r, “me” as in “me” and “r” is rolling “r”. Mostly everyone can pronounce this correctly.

    *Polish (and sometimes others) say “po-ko-i” instead, Ukrainian has a different pronunciation, Latvian (is balto-slavic, I know) adds “-s” at the end.
