The Security Box, podcast 160: Freenom sued, drops free domains, more

<p>Hello folks, welcome to podcast 160. On this week&#39;s edition, we&#39;ll reveal the sudden absence of TSB, we&#39;ll have news and notes from around the landscape that folks may have read, and aa very interesting topic that deals with Freenom and the phishing landscape. Apparently, Facebook is in this too. Of course, we&#39;ll have any questions answered that people have too. Thanks for your support of TSB and thanks so much for listening!</p> <p><br></p> <p>&lt;h4&gt; The Absense of TSB &lt;/h4&gt;</p> <p><br></p> <p>The sudden departure of TSB was not one the JRN was necessarily prepared for. While we have from time to time rescheduled TSB, and/or took specific holidays off like the Christmas break, Thanksgiving week, and possibly others, this was so sudden. </p> <p><br></p> <p>While working on TSB&#39;s release and catching up its &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.emailhostsecurity.com/tsb.php&quot;&gt;EMHS page &lt;/a&gt; we got a message on Dice World. While that wasn&#39;t out of the ordinary, as I have gotten messages on Dice World before, the source and what the message contained was one of shock and grave concern. </p> <p><br></p> <p>The short version is that the JRN&#39;s MENVI helper, Janet Quam, passed away on the 30th of the month of August. While I have been told numerous things, a letter which I published on September 10th goes in to what Janet did with the network from various podcasts which don&#39;t exist anymore, to tech skills and a willingness to learn. </p> <p><br></p> <p>There was no health related stuff discussed except to state that we were aware of health concerns. To read the letter, please &lt;a href=&quot;https://technology.jaredrimer.net/2023/09/10/a-death-across-the-network-heres-a-letter/&quot;&gt;read the blog post titled A death across the network, here’s a letter. &lt;/a&gt;</p> <p><br></p> <p>It links to a Youtube copy of the funeral. MENVI&#39;s links page also has a link to the Obituary. We thank you for your support! A song appropriate will be played at the end
