Just got assigned to lead an #IPv6 security assessment. Been using it since 6bone, but there are little features/functionality/helper protocols that I'm not familiar with.
Anyone wanna give me a brain dump of things to look into? Stuff that differs from IPv4.
Boost please :)

UK, racism in my local area
This chap who is a chef in one of the local pubs (and around the same age as me) relates various experiences of racism he has experienced, including insults shouted from a car when he was walking in Mid Suffolk/Babergh area (very close to where I work)

If it wasn't clear already that #Zoom cares more about money than its users' #privacy and #security, here you have it:
"Only our paid users will have access to end-to-end #encryption for their meetings."

This one nails it: anti-vaxx is good at PR, interactive, welcoming. Health education at the same time... does not exist apart from direct doctor-to-patient contacts and static NHS pages which announce their message from the position of authority.
"Understanding Conspiracy Theories" has a noticeable contribution from Polish scientists based on research done in Poland. "Collective narcissism" is one of the most frequently mentioned population characteristics in this context 😂
"Conspiracy theories appear to appeal to individuals who seek accuracy and/or meaning, but perhaps lack the cognitive tools or experience problems that prevent them from being able to find accuracy and meaning via other more rational means"

After spending a few hours in sci-hub archives, I'm once again extremely grateful to Alexandra Elbakyan https://sci-hub.tw/alexandra who helps millions of people globally get free access to scientific publications that were paid for from public money and then privatised & paywalled
"The Mount Vernon Police Tapes: In Secretly Recorded Phone Calls, Officers Say Innocent People Were Framed"

Greenpeace posts a comparison of CO2 emissions between gas, coal, wind and solar based... but they could not resists manipulating the IPCC data they used and remove nuclear power from the picture.
Let's bring it back: nuclear power should be next to Windkraft with 12 gCO2eq/kWh.
The conventional wisdom that "facts don't matter" in public understanding of science-related controversies is too cynical. Even with polarized respondents on climate, clear scientific explanations can transform attitudes.
Precisely why we desperately need public science-based education campaigns on medicine, climate, energy and telecommunications. Today these have been left to biased industry on one side, and anti-scientific activists on the other.
