As I understand the hole shebang, the German law is about "does the court think you are `hacking` something?" -- this is against the law.

Yes, there was one German pentester that got sued, because he reported a BASE64 encoded, hardcoded authentication token in an application. Not that I would wish him anything like that and am ashamed by the outcome, I also recall that he might have tried to put pressure on the vendor by doing an interview with a blogger or so?

On the other hand, I do not know of any cases regarding publication of dual-use tools as OSS.

Was thinking along the same lines; why do we hardcode a /24? Is that reality in ISP last mile networks?!

A small one, and we do not have any ties no more to these states, really (in contrast to Spain, France and whatnot)

German bus drivers sometimes stop to check the bins for leftover "Pfandpflaschen" (reusable beverage cans, 25 euro cents per)

When you enter the bus you kind of have a contract that states they will safely let you out at the designated places..

An expedition to recover what bureaucracy quietly buried. The model finds it. You bring it home.

You kind of argue it’s okay one cannot eg. Install two different versions of PHP on a Debian system. Nay!

Hot take, but concentration camps were invented in the past. No need to use them, though

Would be nice if any outlet could actually check; did, or did Microsoft not inform these devs beforehand?!

Once hooked into PAM to have a central „ssh box“ mount remote boxes filesystems on user connect. Just need to have a lookup table: which username belongs to wich customer(s server). Ezpz.
