💬 The #paper "Hook & Match - Development and Evaluation of a Pair Matching Phishing Card Game" by Benjamin Maximilian Berens, Sebastian Pape, and Melanie Volkamer was accepted for #publication in the #journal ACM Transactions on #Privacy and #Security (TOPS). The article describes and evaluates the card game “Hook & Match,” which was developed to improve #phishing detection.
The analog pair-matching card game effectively enhances phishing detection skills without exacerbating digital fatigue. Empirical evaluation demonstrates significant learning gains for all participants, with the most pronounced improvements observed among novices who initially lack awareness: https://dl.acm.org/journal/top

Starting the week with a good deed — to myself!
Liked to have the latest #jabberEl 0.11.1 on #Debian 13 #trixie stable, so I uploaded it to #backports.
Should be installable in a few hours:
$ sudo apt install -t trixie-backports elpa-jabber
At this point, using #Jabber/#XMPP or other free and federated IMs is the second best thing we can do against #ChatControl in the #EU. The best is to write to our #MEPs before Wednesday. Do both!

Primed for Malware: Stop Selling #Compromised #Android Devices
Time and time again, researchers have found numerous compromised Android devices for sale at large online retailers like #Amazon. When these devices get individually reported, we have seen some noted efforts to take them down. But this is a systemic problem and Amazon and other major online retailers must make a corresponding systemic and intentional effort to stop these devices from entering people’s homes and ultimately their networks

If buying isn't owning... what exactly did you pay for?
Sony is removing 551 movies from PlayStation libraries on September 1, including Terminator 2, Rambo, Apocalypse Now and hundreds more.
No refunds.
No store credit.
No offline copy.
This isn't just about Sony.
It's about the future of digital ownership, DRM, licensing, and why your "purchases" can disappear overnight.
I dug into:
🎬 Why this is legally possible
🔐 The DRM systems behind digital media
⚖️ How the DMCA protects platforms, not consumers
💿 Why physical media still matters
📺 What this means for every digital storefront
