0:2 Against Germany’s Citizens

While Germany watches the FIFA World Cup, the Bundestag is deciding on legislation that will directly affect millions of citizens: higher health insurance costs, increased co-payments, biometric passport data in private hands, expanded powers for security agencies and restricted access to legal challenges. This does not prove a deliberate attempt to hide the legislation - but it does reveal a democratic problem: far-reaching decisions are being pushed through after exceptionally short consultation periods, during a week when public attention is focused almost entirely elsewhere.

Iran: The Camel Hacks Back – Part 1

The most dangerous cyberattack is not the one that cannot be stopped - but the one nobody took seriously. While US authorities dismiss the leaks as “historical data,” the attacks on Stryker, Lockheed Martin, and the FBI director reveal something far more troubling: not technical superiority, but systemic failure at the highest level. Stolen credentials, ignored warnings, exposed systems - and an adversary that knows exactly how to exploit them.
Iran’s cyber strategy is as simple as it is effective: not technological dominance, but the precise exploitation of human negligence. Part 1 of this analysis shows how open doors become strategic weapons - and why the West is not failing because of enemy strength, but because of its own carelessness. The camel hacks back. Not because it is stronger - but because no one locked the door.
