Yeah you probably shouldn't be using MD5 #hashes anymore: https://github.com/corkami/collisions It seems now #trivial to #generate #collisions - very cool for #cracking old #technology . We can now make *some* SHA1 #collisions happen, I imagine in the #future we can make #hash #collisions happen trivially for something like #git or for #password checking.
We're yet to see whether #china 's #ccp are *actually* #cracking down on #pollution after they apparently #jail #steel manufacturers for #lying about #air #data - something the #ccp themselves do: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. I wouldn't be surprised though if it's actually just an effort to #nationalise these #industries ...
