Romania's Prosecutor General Alex Florence said on Tuesday that Romania was the preferred target of large, hybrid campaigns in the context of the 2024 elections.
“From the investigations carried out at the level of the General Prosecutor’s Office, the conclusion can be drawn at this moment, based on some elements that we will present to you in detail in the following, regarding the fact that Romania has been the main target of some large, hybrid campaigns, in the context of the electoral elections in 2024, the hostile actors aiming at the continuous modeling of the public opinion, the destabilization of the decision-making capacity of the authorities and the dilution of the degree of cohesion.
He explained that this campaign was manifested by cyber attacks and measures to destabilize public order.
“The campaign launched in the Romanian space was manifested both through cyber attacks, measures to destabilize the public order, as well as through campaigns to micro-target the population, disinformation and influence the electorate. On this level was highlighted the offensive character of the hybrid aggressions targeting Romania, which exploited, on the one hand, the vulnerabilities of the national audiences, both through the versatile use of social platforms, respectively by eluding the policies present at their level on the way of promoting the people in the political spectrum, as well as by social engineering techniques aimed at segmenting the population in order to further deliver personalized messages to the audiences.
“Hybrid warfare, by comparing it to traditional warfare, which is more obvious, more transparent, in terms of the material results it produces, is much more insidious, but with results of influencing the way in which the social-economic life of a much larger state is carried out. Because it involves the use in parallel, together or separately, but clearly coordinated, of several types of instruments targeting a state, whether we are talking about different economic, administrative instruments, cyber attacks, secret actions destabilizing for the public order of that state, political subversion and, of course, disinformation and propaganda,” explained Alex Florence.
He noted that certain news that may seem isolated is part of a conjugated effort.
“It is important to make these clarifications for the public to understand that certain news that may sometimes seem disparate, isolated, unnecessitated, unrelated, are, in fact, part of a conjugated war and an effort conjoined as a distinct part of these hybrid warfare instruments,” the attorney general said.
He also said that cyber-attacks are not random or isolated events.
“As far as cyber attacks are concerned, we have to understand that news of the kind that has been circulated in the public space, regarding attacks on Romanian airports a few years ago, of an entire system of surveillance cameras, especially in the border area with Ukraine, or the attacks during the course of 2024 on many public institutions and government agencies in Romania are not random events, they are not isolated events, but once again they are part of a generally coordinated hybrid attack.
He added that the reports he transmits weekly by the National Directorate of Cybernetics Security on his website highlights precisely the frequency, amplitude and especially how these attacks are carried out.
Alex Florence also recalls the fact that Russian cyberattacks intensified on Romanian institutions and companies in 2024.
“The most dangerous attacks, especially those of ransomware, were fully associated with pro-Russian groups such as Lockbit, Lynx, Akira or Ransom Hub and stood out for a particularly intense activity last year. These attacks targeted more than 13 public administration institutions, 12 transport companies of national interest, 17 banking institutions and so on. Also, with strict reference to the electoral process carried out last year, we must take into account that more than 85,000 cyber attacks launched on the electoral infrastructure that aimed to obtain and exfiltrate credentials especially from the Central Electoral Authority and the Central Electoral Bureau, around that period, many of which were subsequently disseminated in groups of Telegram from Russian infrastructure,” the Prosecutor General said.
He said the destabilizing actions that may seem to be isolated elements are part of a coordinated campaign targeting Romania, but also other Eastern European states.
“We recall on this occasion the situation of 2024 of the Colombian citizen, arrested for entering Romania under the coordination of a certain person from Russia with the intention of blowing up objectives located in the proximity of a complex in Ilfov County, where there was a degenerative landfill, as well as two oil extraction wells and a natural gas measuring station,” explained Alex Florence.
Similar actions have taken place in other eastern European states
He said similar actions took place in the Czech Republic and Poland.
“It is worth noting that similar situations are found in other Eastern European states at the same time, when again both in Prague, in the Czech Republic and in Poland, then those actions having the expected result, producing an attack on some often critical infrastructure and in all these are also involved in Colombian citizens. What shows us from the investigations carried out, the fact that behind these coordinated, destabilizing attacks at the level of internal public order, there is coordination on the part of a foreign state actor and with the direct coordination of these political persons engaged and engaged especially in the South American area, the penetration in the Eastern European countries and the conduct of this type of attack,” the Prosecutor General of Romania stated.
He stressed that another component of hybrid warfare is political subversion that can take on different components.
“We are talking, on the one hand, about careful cultivation and often below the limit of detection of some media affairs networks, but also internal political sources, able to influence in one form or another government decisions. We remember the relations and visits made to the Russian embassy and developed in the last two years by several Romanian parliamentarians. But an important element that is found in the Romanian space is at the moment the instrumentation of the Romanian extremist groups. We also remember the case of Marian Moţoc, a character sent to court by the Prosecutor’s Office this year and who had entered into direct coordination with the Embassy of the Russian Federation at that time, in this case with the Russian military attaché,” said Alex Florence.
Intensifying extremist messages in November 2024
He also explained that in November 2024, at the level of extremist communities, there was an intensification of hateful and violent messages.
“We must bear in mind that, starting in November 2024, at the level of extremist communities, there has been an increase in narratives and messages inciting hatred and violence associated with the campaign to promote an independent candidate and have created a climate of panic at the level of society. This increase in the volume of instigating content incriminating violent actions was initiated since the first round of elections, but the evolution is systematically achieved by promoting elements of hate incitement content, generated through artificial intelligence.
He said this narrative corresponds to the pattern in which the Russian Federation operates.
“This type of narratives and the way of making the online content correspond to the shareholding pattern of the Russian Federation, being reported in other states, such as Moldova or Georgia. Also, pro-Russian propaganda channels were used, as we will see the promotion of these elements of content”, explained Alex Florence.
He said that even at the level of social media, inciting hateful and violent actions were identified.
“Last but not least, ,at the level of social networks, hateful messages were identified in violent actions, including against the authorities, most of the threats being outlined around the idea of general upheaval, the messages containing phrases that exploited nostalgic feelings by making the majority reference to the Revolution of December 1989. It is an inflation of such messages in the online area, created with artificial intelligence, which proves an absolutely artificial behavior, but which generates a tension, a state of effervescence among the communities to which they are addressed and, obviously, these messages are subsequently taken over and viralized from various extremist groups at the national level”, declared the Prosecutor General.
Revolution's Hashtag, used in disinformation campaigns
He exemplified this situation with the hashtag of the Revolution.
“It’s a hashtag behind which a whole range of messages of this kind of hate and violence have been viralized around the first juror of the presidential laws. It is a hashtag that comes and is launched somewhere from Russian infrastructure on Telegram channels. He is subsequently viralized through a whole support infrastructure. He is automatically associated with two of the former independent candidate’s hashtags and reaches a peak of viralization at more than 1,800,000 daily views and 176 videos posted daily, all with the same type and the same version of the message,” said Alex Florence.
The Prosecutor General specified that since November 27, 2024, an intensification of the campaign to promote the independent candidate in the presidential elections has been found.
“Analyses have shown that since November 27 there has been an increase in the campaign to promote the presidential candidate at the level of groups known for the dissemination of disinformation narratives, which ensure the connection between the pro-Russian community and other communities generating risks for public order, especially extremist and conspiracist groups.
Thus, narratives were identified through which the candidate is promoted at the level of over 40 groups of this type and totaled over 1,300,000 members. Well, all these actions to promote hateful content reveal an artificial behavior, as I said, the intensity of social effervescences, with that huge volume of content of this type, being manifestly disproportionate to the manifestations in the public space, from the real physical space. This outlines the specific hypothesis of influencing the information space in order to amplify some states of dissatisfaction that are vacavable then by generating large-scale street actions,” the Prosecutor General stated.
He also presented how the Romanian population was targeted to identify certain admissible narratives.
“We must understand that the online ecosystem currently used by actors in the Russian Federation are looking at a wide range of tools, starting from traditional state media sites and components, which are spreading, starting to create certain news and will also be found in Romania and further spread through various websites and blogs created especially for the creation and spread of this content. They are also used in this firm troll toolkit, for those who do not understand what they are talking about fake accounts, those that emminate an official account, and who claim authentic users and entire networks of bots. These are tools that artificially amplify the visibility of a certain content, either through comments or by complimentary clicks and so on,” the Prosecutor General said.
So, I have my arr stack set up to queue downloads through qbittorrent and I've tweaked my release/delay profiles to 720 minutes after release. For some reason my modified version of Sonarr is trying to grab my requested linux .iso's before the official release. Fortunately, I have .mp4 and .mkv filtered in qbittorrent so I don't end up with any of those nasty pirated tv shows, but it clogs up my download client. They'll just sit at 100% complete and seed indefinitely because all the content is filtered to "do not download".
Sonarr sees this as progress in the activity tab and won't attempt to pick up the actual linux iso release when it is official.
I'm pretty sure the "after release" setting is just based on when the first match appears on the indexers, not the air date in the metadata. So the initial release isn't going to be a factor.
I don't see this issue, but I've got fairly intricate profiles setup based on the TRaSH guides. I suspect some combination of those profiles filter things out for me. Is there anything obvious in the problematic downloads you could filter out with a profile, like a format or release group?

‘I’m going to throw that thing into a river!” my wife says as she comes down the stairs looking frazzled after putting our four-year-old daughter to bed.
To be clear, “that thing” is not our daughter, Emma*. It’s Grem, an AI-powered stuffed alien toy that the musician Claire Boucher, better known as Grimes, helped develop with toy company Curio. Designed for kids aged three and over and built with OpenAI’s technology, the toy is supposed to “learn” your child’s personality and have fun, educational conversations with them. It’s advertised as a healthier alternative to screen time and is part of a growing market of AI-powered toys.
When I agreed to experiment on my child’s developing brain, I thought an AI chatbot in cuddly form couldn’t be any worse for her than watching Peppa Pig. But I wasn’t prepared for how attached Emma became to Grem, or how unsettlingly obsequious the little alien was.
The cuddly chatbot Grem is designed to ‘learn’ your child’s personality, while every conversation they have is recorded, then transcribed by a third party. It wasn’t long before I wanted this experiment to be over ...

My husband, Conrad Rockenhaus, is wrongly incarcerated in a county jail. I’m posting this here because you are one of the few communities that will understand the full technical and political reality of how he ended up there.
My husband is a former Tor operator, and at one point, he ran some of the fastest relays and exit nodes in the world.
This nightmare began when he refused to help the FBI decrypt traffic from his exit nodes.
Months later, the government arrested him. Their official reason? A minor, non-violent CFAA charge from an old workplace dispute that had nothing to do with Tor.
In fact, the statute of limitations was just a couple of months from expiring. It was a clear pretext to target him.
That minor charge was all they needed to get him into the system. To deny him bail, a U.S. Probation Officer in Texas lied under oath, telling a judge that Conrad had installed a "Linux OS called Spice" to "knock out their monitoring software" and access the "dark web."
Here is the technical reality of their lie: The software was a standard SPICE graphics driver needed for his Ph.D. program. As many of you know, this is a basic utility for displaying graphics from a virtual machine. It is not an OS, has no connection to the dark web, and was technically incapable of interfering with their monitoring software.
The claim is a technical absurdity, equivalent to saying a mouse pad can hack a server.
Based on that lie alone, he was held in pre-trial detention for three years.
Now, the retaliation has escalated in Michigan. After I filed a formal complaint against his US probation officers for harassment, they used fraudulent warrants to jail my husband again.
During this violent arrest by US Marshals (who smashed in our windows and nearly shot my dog) he sustained a severe head injury that caused him to have a grand mal seizure in court. The jail’s “medical attention” was to ask him what year it was (he said 2023) and then send him back to his cell. He is being denied real medical care.
To make matters worse, U.S. District Judge Stephen J. Murphy, III has created a procedural trap that has stripped my husband of his right to a lawyer to fight for his life, health, or innocence. He is trapped in a constitutional and medical crisis.
I am not asking for money. I am asking for your help to amplify this story. You understand the technical truth and why this fight is so important.
We have all the evidence: the court transcript of the false testimony, the fraudulent warrants, the proof of medical neglect. It’s documented on my website:
TL;DR: My husband, a former Tor operator, refused to help the FBI decrypt Tor traffic. They retaliated by using an old, unrelated CFAA offense to arrest him and then lied about him using a "graphics driver to access the dark web” to keep him in pre-trial detention for 3 years. Now he's been jailed again in Michigan on fraudulent violations, is being denied care for a head injury, and has no lawyer.
Seeing a lot of questions and some misinformation in the comments, so I wanted to clarify a few key facts with sources: - On the original case: My husband did not have a trial. He took a coerced guilty plea in Texas after being held for three years based on perjured testimony about a "SPICE graphics driver." We have the court transcript proving the perjury on our website. - On the violent arrest: The claim that my husband was "combative" is a complete fabrication, likely being spread to justify the U.S. Marshals' actions. We have the unedited security camera footage of the entire raid, and it proves the opposite. - On the relevance of Tor: The government's retaliation against our family began after my husband, a Tor exit node operator, refused to help the FBI decrypt traffic. They then used an unrelated workplace dispute as the pretext for the initial charge. The entire case stems from his support for online privacy.
I'm seeing comments about a deeply offensive search term ("NAMBLA") that the prosecution brought up in my husband's 2020 hearing in Texas, and I want to address it directly so there is no confusion. The search was for an article my husband was writing for Encyclopedia Dramatica, a well-known (and very controversial) satirical wiki that parodies offensive topics. He was researching the topic to make fun of it, much like the show South Park did in a famous episode. The prosecution knew this search was irrelevant to the case, but they put it in front of the judge anyway . This is a classic "poison the well" tactic, using something shocking and out-of-context to prejudice a judge against a defendant. It's a hallmark of a malicious prosecution. While they want everyone distracted by this, the real issues are the ones they can't defend: the fraudulent warrants, the perjured testimony, the ongoing medical neglect, and the judge's documented conflict of interest.

FBI Director Kash Patel is scheduled to appear before senators Tuesday as he faces growing questions about his ability to lead the nation's premier law enforcement agency.
Patel's appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee was put on the books weeks ago, but comes at a delicate time for the director, who is a loyalist of President Trump but has no experience leading an organization like the FBI.
In just the past week, he has come under criticism for his social media posts and actions during the manhunt for the man who killed conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He's also been sued by three former senior FBI officials who allege that he fired them for improper political reasons.

E: apparently it needs to be said that I am not suggesting you switch to Linux on your phone today; just that development needs to accelerate. Please don't be one of the 34 people that replied to tell me Linux is not ready.
Android has always been a fairly open platform, especially if you were deliberate about getting it that way, but we've seen in recent months an extremely rapid devolution of the Android ecosystem:
Samsung, Xiaomi and OnePlus have removed the option of bootloader unlocking on all of their devices. I suspect Google is not far behind.
Google implementing Play Integrity API and encouraging developers to implement it. Notably the EU's own identity verification wallet requires this, in stark contrast to their own laws and policies, despite the protest of hundreds on Github.
And finally, the mandatory implementation of developer verification across Android systems. Yes, if you're running a 3rd-party OS like GOS you won't be directly affected by this, but it will impact 99.9% of devices, and I foresee many open source developers just opting out of developing apps for Android entirely as a result. We've already seen SyncThing simply discontinue development for this reason, citing issues with Google Play Store. They've also repeatedly denied updates for NextCloud with no explanation, only restoring it after mass outcry. And we've already seen Google targeting any software intended to circumvent ads, labeling them in the system as "dangerous" and "untrusted". This will most certainly carry into their new "verification" system.
Google once competed with Apple for customers. But in a world where Google walks away from the biggest antitrust trial since 1998 with yet another slap on the wrist, competition is dead, and Google is taking notes from Apple about what they can legally get away with.
Android as we know it is dead. And/or will be dead very soon. We need an open replacement.

The Critical Role of Internal Audits in ISO 13485 Quality Management System for Medical Devices
Internal audits serve as a cornerstone for strengthening compliance under the ISO 13485 Quality Management System for Medical Devices. They provide a structured approach to evaluate whether processes, procedures, and controls align with regulatory expectations. For manufacturers of complex devices, these audits ensure the organization consistently meets global standards of safety, performance, and reliability. By identifying gaps early and addressing them proactively, internal audits reinforce a strong quality management culture across the enterprise.
Aligning Medical Devices ISO 13485 and ISO 9001 for Quality Assurance
While both standards emphasize quality, medical devices iso 13485 and iso 9001 serve distinct purposes. ISO 9001 provides a broad framework for quality management across industries, while ISO 13485 specifically targets medical device compliance with stricter regulatory demands. Internal audits act as a bridge, ensuring that organizations align both frameworks where relevant. This dual alignment helps companies manage complex supply chains, maintain consistent documentation, and drive continuous improvement while staying compliant with global medical device regulations.
Strengthening Documentation and Traceability Through ISO 13485 Quality Management System for Medical Devices
One of the recurring themes in audit findings across the medical device industry is inadequate documentation. The iso 13485 quality management system for medical devices requires comprehensive traceability from design inputs to production records and post-market surveillance. Internal audits ensure that documentation practices are not only compliant but also practical and sustainable. By scrutinizing record-keeping processes, organizations can guarantee that every design change, corrective action, and customer complaint is traceable, enhancing overall quality assurance.
Risk Management and Internal Audits Under Medical Devices ISO 13485 and ISO 9001
Risk management is deeply embedded within medical devices iso 13485 and iso 9001 frameworks. Internal audits verify that organizations consistently identify, assess, and mitigate risks at every stage of the product lifecycle. This includes analyzing supplier risks, manufacturing process risks, and patient safety risks. Effective audits also ensure that risk control measures are validated, documented, and updated in real time. By doing so, organizations strengthen their capacity to prevent nonconformities, safeguard patients, and protect brand reputation.
Process Validation and Operational Excellence in Medical Devices ISO 13485 and ISO 9001
Another area where internal audits prove invaluable is process validation. Regulators expect manufacturers to demonstrate that processes consistently produce results that meet predefined specifications. Internal audits aligned with medical devices iso 13485 and iso 9001 ensure that validation protocols are established, monitored, and reviewed regularly. These audits help identify inefficiencies, optimize workflows, and ensure that process controls support both regulatory compliance and operational excellence. The outcome is a stronger quality management system that integrates efficiency with compliance.
Supplier Quality Oversight Under ISO 13485 Quality Management System for Medical Devices
Medical device manufacturers operate in a highly interconnected supply chain. A weak link in supplier quality can directly impact product safety and compliance. Internal audits under the iso 13485 quality management system for medical devices extend beyond the company’s walls, focusing on supplier processes, materials, and quality controls. By assessing supplier compliance, manufacturers can mitigate risks of recalls, delays, and nonconformities. Internal audits also ensure that supplier qualification, monitoring, and corrective actions are systematically integrated into the broader QMS framework.
Training and Competency Audits Across Medical Devices ISO 13485 and ISO 9001
Personnel competency plays a pivotal role in maintaining quality assurance standards. Internal audits confirm whether training programs align with the rigorous requirements of medical devices iso 13485 and iso 9001. Auditors evaluate training records, employee competencies, and continuous learning initiatives to ensure that teams are equipped to manage compliance demands. By embedding training evaluations into the audit cycle, organizations create a workforce that is not only compliant but also capable of driving quality improvement initiatives across the business.
Integrating CAPA and Continuous Improvement Through ISO 13485 Quality Management System for Medical Devices
Corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) are a vital mechanism for addressing nonconformities and improving processes. Internal audits verify whether CAPA systems are effective under the iso 13485 quality management system for medical devices. Auditors assess whether root cause analyses are comprehensive, corrective actions are documented, and preventive measures are implemented effectively. This integration ensures that lessons learned from nonconformities drive meaningful change, strengthening the organization’s ability to consistently deliver safe and effective medical devices.
Leveraging Digital Quality Management Systems for Smarter Internal Audits
As medical device organizations evolve, manual auditing practices no longer suffice to meet regulatory demands. Internal audits must now leverage digital QMS platforms that integrate real-time data, automated workflows, and advanced analytics.

La settimana scorsa ero in modalità antibiotico power-up 🦠💊. Avrei dovuto starmene buono a letto a riposare… ci ho pure provato! Ma la noia non perdona, e allora ho deciso di trasformarla in occasione: mi sono buttato nello studio dell’hacking etico 🕵️♂️💻.
Risultato? Ho imparato un sacco di cose nuove. E adesso che sto bene, torno alla mia routine… ma non più come prima: ci torno con un bagaglio più grande, e con la mente più affilata ⚔️✨.

I am looking for a site or a service that just give me a title and a link for news stories.
Basically, if for example the news is Executive Order from Donald trump, I want them to just show debullshitted title and a link to the executive order.
Is there is any selective/professional link aggregator?

in reply to GiuseppeAndTheYeti • • •I'm pretty sure the "after release" setting is just based on when the first match appears on the indexers, not the air date in the metadata. So the initial release isn't going to be a factor.
I don't see this issue, but I've got fairly intricate profiles setup based on the TRaSH guides. I suspect some combination of those profiles filter things out for me. Is there anything obvious in the problematic downloads you could filter out with a profile, like a format or release group?
