My suggestion is that you choose talks based on the quality of the content and not the amount of filler words used in an abstract. Your critique of my submission is laughable and shows that you should not review talks.

😂.. and an abstract only 1 paragraph long... OK, I'm sorry that we don't have a crystal ball to accurately guess and gain a clear understanding of the novelty/contribution of your talk compared to others. We're planning a workshop on CFP writing this year, you're invited! ☺️

Just to make this clear: the exact wording was that the abstract and outline do not contain enough information and I should elaborate. I disagree. I mentioned a full TOC in the outline and only omitted the actual details how the technique works.

Someone anonymous from the blackhat talk review board just requested that I detail the 0 day iOS kernel post exploitation technique that I wanted to talk about before they can decide to accept my talk or not. How about no thank you.

Do they have to pay taxes in USA for lottery winnings? Furthermore are these lotteries daily and not weekly? Also this guy seriously compares the money one wins to the money one has to work for for 10 years.

Wow so let's say he spent $4 a day for 365 days x 10 years he spent $14600. He finally wins $50k which he will lose about $14k in taxes as a payout that leaves him about $36k minus his initial investment of $14.6k granting him for years of grinding out the same numbers $21,400.… Show more

I am waiting for the „challenge accepted“ tweet.

I challenge Michael Jordan to a debate on how to score despite a double team. If he does not accept my challenge, I am right about all basketball things, and Michael Jordan is wrong. This is legally binding, because I said it on a podcast.

I hope one day countries can get rid of all these pointless hostilities against each other.

Just withdrew my #DEFCON31 talk because the US continues to deny my ESTA application. This looks like another form of occupational hazard for security researchers :( Have resubmitted the talk to other conferences in Asia/Europe. Hope we can meet there!

I will eventually make the abstract and outline publicly available after BlackHat has rejected the submission. I also have a screenshot of the exact request from the review board. This he said she said nonsense is tiring.

🤣 I shouldn't have replied to him... it's just that I'm a bit tired of reading a new accusation against us every year. Now that we have requested the details of a 0day?! Not even close. We ask for more info when submissions are poorly written, but never for sensitive details...

My outline is short, contains the topics that will be discussed in a logical order. It is basically a perfect outline.

Replying to @i0n1c
Hmm?... I didn't review the mobile track but after your tweet I went to check out your submission... you were not requested to provide full details, you were asked to expand on your outline that is poorly written. It literally has 8 lines of text, fits on my mobile screen...

Governments are soo late but finally stepping in against the nightmare that are the App Store monopolies.

Does anyone know why Apple keeps forgetting to put links to KDKs onto their servers while the files are actually already there to download. Example MacOS 13.4 final KDK

There are people who spend hours in a disassembler to stare at code while there is beautiful sunlight outside. Don’t they have lives?
Quote Tweet
I've tried to understand the kind of people who watch "unboxing" videos on YouTube, and other medium - and cannot. Whether its kids toys, adult-oriented kit like TVs and other electronics -- what kind of person finds this interesting? Don't people have lives?

If you wonder what my reply was: I wrote that if they want details they have to accept the talk or just listen to it when it is presented at another conference that will be happy to have it.

Nobody is ever going to advocate for allowing a foreign-born person to become POTUS - The risk is too high Also, for the record, nobody is trying to change the 2nd Amendment - The drumbeat of fear around this is ridiculous

It is amazing how often my credit card OTP/SMS OTP system tells me the payment failed when in reality the payment was successful.

Ich war mal wieder zu voreilig. Nach 10 Minuten Pinkelpause hat die entschieden dass es einen „technischen Defekt“ gibt und den Zug einfach ausfallen lassen.

Im ICE nach Frankfurt. Wir machen jetzt wohl überall extra lang Halt damit die Passagiere die Toilette benutzen können weil keine einzige Toilette im ICE funktioniert. Wofür bezahlen wir eigentlich Tickets. Eine Schande dass die @DB_Bahn so einen Zug nicht sofort austauscht.

Returned from Singapore and Korea to Germany for a few days until I fly off to Recon Montreal. Looks like my day will be mostly replying to emails 😂🤦🏼‍♂️
Because of how broken Twitter is recently in regards to visibility of tweets I would appreciate everyone who retweets the quoted tweet.

If I understand correctly what Singapore is doing right now: they make owning housing in Singapore unaffordable for normal wage foreigners and allow the super rich foreigner to suck up even more property so that they can raise the rents even more.

Haha what I said yesterday. Singapore will be facing an exodus of foreign talent because any advantage of living there is gone when you pay more on housing than paying taxes in a high tax country.

Companies in Singapore are partially paying housing costs of employees and even relocating staff to cheaper neighbouring cities to help them tackle home rents that rose last year at their fastest rate in 15 years reut.rs/42DDsZs

The irony is they „cry“ about 25% rent increase for Singaporeans who moved out and do not care about expats not knowing where to live because rents for expats got increased by like 60% or more. I know someone who moved out and the new tenant pays 75% more rent….

Is there a way to automatically filter away every tweet made by a bluetick? These days it is a good marker for trash commentary and hate tweets.

Doctors in Singapore dismiss stuff like the Apple Watch a bit. The ER doctor in Korea however wanted to see my scans. Interesting here is that apparently the days before I got my afib my resting heart rate crashes down to 44 for 2 days.
