Yes, that was one of the important points not included in the ICE report. Several other facts were also provided that clarified Dr. Roberts' past beyond the initial incendiary statements made by ICE.

Dr. Roberts has been improving the Des Moines, IA schools greatly since he's been here. A recent article details his improvements. Despite state lawmakers and the Gov continuing to take tax money from public schools. This is so upsetting; to say the least.

Morning greetings from my Chief Security Officer, Jesse Pinkman, and me! From a few months ago.

I adopted Jesse from Doberman Rescue in Omaha, NE, in Aug 2019 when he was 6-7 months old.

Can you tell what series I was watching when I adopted & named him? 😏

He's always got my back!

BTW, that intercepted data packet was in hexadecimal. Very easily translated to other formats. This translates to the text:
m b 0 1 � p a s s w o r d 1

Combined with the full transmission, all passwords were easily discoverable for the described situation.

The need for security- and privacy-engineered medical devices is extreme. Risks are increased significantly when AI is allowed to control medical device actions; most AI algorithms are not thoroughly tested, vetted, or accurate for all contexts of use.

Literally a centuries' old truth. Caveat: tech evolves:related concepts R not always "old school." Eg, steganography was used N 400's BC when soldiers tattooed military secrets on messengers' scalps 2 send militry secrets. Tech has changed; related concepts R often longstanding & worth understanding
