Article 45 Will Roll Back Web Security by 12 Years

The EU is poised to pass a sweeping new regulation, eIDAS 2.0. Buried deep in the text is Article 45, which returns us to the dark ages of 2011, when certificate authorities (CAs) could collaborate with governments to spy on encrypted traffic—and get away with it. Article 45 forbids browsers from enforcing modern security requirements on certain CAs without the approval of an EU member government. Which CAs? Specifically the CAs that were appointed by the government, which in some cases will be owned or operated by that selfsame government. That means cryptographic keys under one government’s control could be used to intercept HTTPS communication throughout the EU and beyond.

🇷🇺 🤝 🇰🇵 The North Korean deliveries provide new capabilities to Russian forces. | Patricia Marins

"As I reported in September, the agreement with North Korea would be based 122mm rockets with a range of 40km, 122mm and 152mm artillery shells, as well as the KN-09 system, with its guided missiles. I also mentioned an estimated quantity of 10 million shells from North Korea, being transferred to Russia, which served as a basis for many analysts and intelligence services.

Now, let's write this down: The Russians are expected to complete their training on the KN-09 system in 2 weeks, and deploy it in Ukraine, with each unit equipped with 8 powerful 300mm guided missiles, capable of reaching a range of 200km-240km.

These new deliveries have put the allies in a challenging position, especially since Ukraine has not received any significant shipments in months.

Maybe For the first time since the war began, the Russian forces, with the assistance of North Korea, are surpassing the Western forces in terms of technological advancement on the frontline.

This is more evident in the new Lancets with a range of 70km, the effective electronic warfare capabilities, and now the KN-09 system, which outperforms the HIMARS by more than double the range. Not to mention the large deliveries of the 122mm with 40km range, what outrange most of the western artilleries.

As I'm reporting since several months, the gradual reduction of western support are degrading the Ukrainaine forces to a dangerous limit.
The Ukrainian hope rests on a potential unexpected move from the US. I am monitoring reports regarding the 31 Abrams tanks, not just about the tanks themselves, but also the possibility of a massive shipment that could include missiles and numerous Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs).

This would provide enough equipment for Ukraine to maintain its defensive lines. However, it is important to note that this remains a remote possibility, but for me, is currently the only conceivable factor that could prevent a Western defeat.

(On the video a Russian soldier thanks the North Koreans for the 122mm rockets, with longer range than the Russian ones.)"
