Earlier, at the beginning of the #cloud era, I did not expect that the cloud would end up simply borrowing someone else’s server or datacenter. I imagined it would expand into a peer-to-peer (P2P) model. To me, a real cloud should be a true cloud network grid—distributed computing that runs through your laptop, desktop, or even phone, working together with datacenters. However, it seems that major IDC, CDN companies, and cloud providers don’t want that, because it doesn’t help them make money.

#Oracle äußert sich nun zum #Cloud #Datenleck - aber ganz offiziell nur inoffiziell: Nach dem Beginn der Sammelklage gegen das Unternehmen in den USA werden nun Kunden darüber in Kenntnis gesetzt, dass Anmeldeinformationen wie Benutzernamen, Passkeys und verschlüsselte Passwörter in die Hände von Cyberangreifern gelangt sind. Und in der Vergangenheit war regelmäßig nur die Rede von "Legacy Systemen", nun sprechen wir auf einmal über Datensätze aus dem Jahr 2025:

Lotus Blossom espionage group targets multiple industries with different versions of Sagerunex and hacking tools

The Lotus Blossom espionage group has been conducting cyber espionage campaigns targeting government, manufacturing, telecommunications, and media sectors in the Philippines, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The group employs various versions of the Sagerunex backdoor, including new variants that use cloud services like Dropbox, Twitter, and Zimbra for command and control. Lotus Blossom utilizes multiple hacking tools and techniques to maintain long-term persistence in compromised networks. The attacks involve multi-stage operations, including reconnaissance, lateral movement, and data exfiltration. The group has been active since at least 2012 and continues to evolve its tactics and malware to evade detection.

T-Mobile streicht in den USA offenbar Diversitätsinitiativen
Unter der Trump-Regierung werden Diversitätsprogramme im ganzen Land zusammengestrichen. Die US-Tochter der Telekom hat sich laut einem Bericht nun angepasst. Womöglich spielten dabei auch Übernahmepläne eine Rolle.

The Staggering #Ecological Impacts of Computation and the #Cloud

Anthropologist Steven Gonzalez illustrates some of the diverse #environmental impacts of data storage.

by Steven Gonzalez Monserrate

Excerpt: "#TheCloud now has a greater #CarbonFootprint than the airline industry. A single #DataCenter can consume the equivalent electricity of 50,000 homes. At 200 terawatt hours (TWh) annually, data centers collectively devour more energy than some nation-states. Today, the electricity utilized by data centers accounts for 0.3 percent of overall #CarbonEmissions, and if we extend our accounting to include networked devices like laptops, smartphones, and tablets, the total shifts to 2 percent of global carbon emissions.

"Why so much energy? Beyond cooling, the energy requirements of data centers are vast. To meet the pledge to customers that their data and cloud services will be available anytime, anywhere, data centers are designed to be hyper-redundant: If one system fails, another is ready to take its place at a moment’s notice, to prevent a disruption in user experiences. Like Tom’s air conditioners idling in a low-power state, ready to rev up when things get too hot, the data center is a Russian doll of redundancies: redundant power systems like diesel generators, redundant servers ready to take over computational processes should others become unexpectedly unavailable, and so forth. In some cases, only 6 to 12 percent of energy consumed is devoted to active computational processes. The remainder is allocated to cooling and maintaining chains upon chains of redundant fail-safes to prevent costly downtime."
