The Bazaar, the Maharaja’s Ultimatum, and the Shadow of the Future: Extortion...a001
Zero-day vulnerabilities are gaining a prominent role in the modern-day intelligence, national security, and law enforcement operations. At the same time, trading vulnerability information or zero-day exploits is considered a risky ordeal. Players in the secretive zero-day market face some inherent obstacles related to time-sensitiveness of traded commodities, trust, price fairness, and possibility of defection.
To alleviate some of these hurdles, it was suggested to:
1. Use punishment (i.e., public disclosure of vulnerabilities) to discourage a buyer from defecting;
2. Resort to the use of trusted-third parties (e.g., escrow services), as crucial entities for enabling cooperation of market participants; and
3. Build a reputation system (e.g., reputation score) as an instrument to establish trust relationships between distrustful players.
This work presents the first results of an ongoing study on extortion and cooperation in zero-day markets through the lens of game theory.
The questions motivating this research are: a. Can the zero-day market achieve cooperation and efficiency even in absence of trusted-third parties? b. Can punishment discourage the buyer from defecting? c. Under which conditions a player can extort the opponent? d. Can cooperation be sustained also in fully anonymous or semi-anonymous settings? The talk will address these questions and others, by providing an analysis of the zero-day trading strategies applicable to each scenario.
Learn which strategies allows to maximize the profits while trading zero-days in today’s marketplaces. Find out how to avoid getting extorted by zero–day traders. Learn how to extort an unwit market participant. Gain a deeper knowledge about the emergence, sustainability, and breakdown of cooperation. Discover under which conditions the zero-day markets can achieve efficiency.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
