The Spamhaus ProjectEver heard of the Policy Blocklist (PBL)? 🤔 It's a Spamhaus list you might actually want to be on! It helps tackle end-user abuse by listing IP ranges from which email should never be sent directly to the final destination. Whether you're an Internet Service Provider with IP ranges to declare or an end user that has received a rejection error message mentioning "Spamhaus," understanding the PBL is essential.

The exploratory consultation is scheduled to close on May 19.Last week, <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Telef%C3%B3nica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Telefónica</a> argued in a blog post that telecom should be a "two-sided market," with network operators charging Internet users and content providers.<a href="https://noc.social/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Meta</a> slams telco fee proposal, says <a href="https://noc.social/tags/ISPs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ISPs</a> should pay their own network costs <a href="https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/03/meta-slams-telco-fee-proposal-says-isps-should-pay-their-own-network-costs/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/03/meta-slams-telco-fee-proposal-says-isps-should-pay-their-own-network-costs/</a>

MortenWith it being <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/BlackFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BlackFriday</a> and all, I hope nobody is caught up in scams or phishing attacks while doing their (frantic!) online <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/shopping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#shopping</a>.Here are a few <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/security" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#security</a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#privacy</a> tips that I hope will help somebody:1) If you have a coupon code, don't follow a provided link to the shopping page. Instead find the page yourself, e.g., via a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/searchengine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#searchengine</a>, and then input the coupon code manually.2) Access online shops without being logged in, and without any <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cookies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cookies</a>, such that the shop cannot set prices according to <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/personaldata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#personaldata</a> or previous purchases (yes, they do that). Except, of course, if the discount is only available when actually having an account. Attempt anonymously first.3) An improvement to 2) is accessing online shops via <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/TorBrowser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TorBrowser</a> or similar. 4) Use a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/VPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VPN</a> such that <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/ISPs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ISPs</a> and other adversaries cannot obtain or spoof information. It also protects your data, like credit card info, if you are using public a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/WiFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WiFi</a> (never do that without VPN).5) As corollary to 4) you can even sometimes get discounts by using a different location than your own.6) Use a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/passwordmanager" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#passwordmanager</a> for your credentials such that they can be longer and harder to guess/crack. This also means you don't have to remember (or even know) them by heart.7) Setup <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/MFA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MFA</a> for your accounts such that, together with 6), it is harder for adversaries to break in and steal data and/or make automated purchases on your behalf if possible. It is highly advisable using an authenticator app instead of code-by-SMS. For further protection, you can even use <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/biometrics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#biometrics</a>, like <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/fingerprints" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fingerprints</a> or facial scans. And/or a hardware device supporting <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FIDO2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FIDO2</a>/#U2F or similar.Note that these tips are applicable also when not shopping, and I would encourage them all.Stay safe and have an awesome Friday!<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/mastodontips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mastodontips</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/feditips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#feditips</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/profiling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#profiling</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/personalidentifyinginformation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#personalidentifyinginformation</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pii</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/internetserviceproviders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#internetserviceproviders</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/tor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tor</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/multifactorauthentication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#multifactorauthentication</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/2fa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#2fa</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/twofactorauthentication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#twofactorauthentication</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/yubikey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#yubikey</a>
