Jason, Mark and Raena joined the show today, where Apple and its Find My network was our first topic of conversation. Researchers at George Mason University found a vulnerability in the Find My Network that allowed hackers to track Bluetooth devices after processing the device’s unique identifier through a series of GPUs to find a cryptographic key that matches the Bluetooth address. The vulnerability is significant due to the potential to discover any Bluetooth device, including phones and smart locks.
We also discussed a recent breakthrough by French scientists and how long they could sustain a nuclear fusion reaction for in the WEST research facility. Breaking the previous record with just over 20 minutes maintained reaction time.
