He did not say that Tesla made the LiDAR afforadable though.
Migrated my email servers in 20 minutes yesterday from OVH (their MXs does not support IPv6, and Infomaniak was less expensive for basic email hosting), I found the documentation and the diagnostic tools of the DNS zone very clear, was a no brainer to add DKIM, SPF and DMARC (hey generate the records for you, just have to cpy paste in your zone manager and refresh the diagnostic to get a status after propagation), and autodiscovery and autoconfiguration of email clients are a nice bonus !

Overall a great experience, can recommend !

That's totally true, you actually have examples of unsafe capabilities delegation in the other article mentioned in the References: https://juggernaut-sec.com/capabilities/
DNS0 was launched at a time when no other EU public DNS resolver was available. Today, you have DNS4EU that is actively funded and pushed throughout the EU administration (and critical infrastructures), so I believe that the DNS0/NextDNS founders saw that there was very little differenciating factors to their proposal, and decided to shut it down.

Had they "captured" a larger marketshare in the EU while they were ahead, situation might have been different today, but in my opinion it never happened.

Which public funds ? DNS0.eu was a private initiative, from the NextDNS founders. DNS4EU is a public initiative, as mentioned in the news, and this one is still supported and actively developed.
Re:Anssi: Technical Position Paper on Confidential Computing on Friday October 17, 2025 @10:41AM (#45617327)
Highlight:

"However, Confidential Computing is not secure enough to protect data integrity and confidentiality against a hostile administrator performing targeted, active attacks. Under such a threat model, users must avoid running on shared infrastructure operated by providers they cannot trust, and are rather encouraged to leverage Confidential Computing to increase their security posture on dedicated hardware instead."

In their current form, AMD and Intel proposals never fulfilled the Confidential Computing promises, one can hope they will do better in their next iteration of SGX/TDX/SEV, but they were always broken, by design.
Security theater, mostly.
Unrelated to the topic, but does anyone know if an equivalent service (à-la-carte blood testing with online booking) is available in Europe, specifically the Netherlands (or France) ?

Exploited in the wild, difficult to say, but there has been numerous vulnerabilities reported on underlying technologies used for confidential computing (Intel SGX, AMD SEV, Intel TDX, for example) and quite a good amount of external research and publications on the topic.

The threat model for these technologies can also sometimes be sketchy (lack of side channel protection for Intel SGX, lack of integrity verification for AMD SEV, for example)

Re:Rethinking the Linux cloud stack for confidential VMs on Saturday August 23, 2025 @02:19PM (#44997962)
I'd recommend anyone interested in Confidential Computing to read the work from Rodrigo Branco (@BSDaemon) to understand why it's mostly a failure and a PR stunt from cloud providers to give the illusion that the customer stays in control, while at the same time the hardware capabilities CC is built upon are unsecure (and can't be fixed by firmware or microcode update, most of the time).

For example, a direct link to his keynote slides from ESA 3S conference last year (PDF): https://indico.esa.int/event/528/attachments/5988/10212/Keyn...

As a french living in the Netherlands, the first time I saw this behavior was in the US (SF and LA), it just never happens here, or very marginally.
Push notifications are vulnerable to MFA fatigue/"bombing" attacks, that are used in the real world, cf. this breach on Uber:

The rotation is not related to the UEFI capability to check/enforce the expiration, but the capability to sign future shim/OpROMs/drivers/bootloaders.
