*** Masscan: the entire Internet in 3 minutes ***
---------------------------------------------
Masscan is the fastest port scanner, more than 10 times faster than any other port scanner. As the screenshot shows, it can transmit 25 million packets/second, which is fast enough to scan the entire Internet in just under 3 minutes. The system doing this is just a typical quad-core desktop processor. The only unusual part of the system is the dual-port 10-gbps Ethernet card (most computers have only 1-gbps Ethernet).

*** Google knows nearly every Wi-Fi password in the world ***
---------------------------------------------
If an Android device (phone or tablet) has ever logged on to a particular Wi-Fi network, then Google probably knows the Wi-Fi password. ... Android devices have defaulted to coughing up Wi-Fi passwords since version 2.2. And, since the feature is presented as a good thing, most people wouldnt change it. I suspect that many Android users have never even seen the configuration option controlling this.
