I don't own any crypto, but if I did, I'd probably choose to use a multisig setup with 2+ signers, including at least one (regularly pentested) software wallet.

As someone who only has a cursory knowledge of Postgres backup systems, how does this compare to something like pgBackRest? When would someone reach for one over the other?

I'm curious to know how PlanetScale Postgres would fare.

A lot of people have been very vocal about this. I use uBlock Origin Lite and haven't noticed a difference between it and uBlock Origin. Am I missing something?

I'd like to switch to Bitwarden, but my singular focus is on security. I trust 1P because of its reputation in the security community. Does Bitwarden have any drawbacks when compared to 1P, security-wise?

16e still uses a Broadcom chip for WiFi + Bluetooth, though. iPhone Air is currently the only iPhone that uses both Apple-designed baseband + WiFi/BT chips.

Are you a person of high interest? I was under the impression that these sorts of breaches only happen to journalists, state officials, etc.

Tell us more about some of these ideas and approaches that changed you as an engineer! We'd love to hear!

Given that A19 + M5 processors with MIE (EMTE) were only recently introduced, I wonder how extensively MacOS/iOS make use of the hardware features. Is it something that's going to take several years to see the benefit, or does MIE provide thorough protection today?

There's no way to easily tell that those phones have unlocked bootloaders, though. Ex-Verizon phones may be completely carrier unlocked, will work on any network, and still have locked bootloaders. This isn't an issue for anyone running stock Android, but will restrict those phones from being used to run GrapheneOS.
