We’re in a really strange moment in the foreign policy politics of the Democratic Party. People are looking for an alternative vision — an approach to American power in the world that would feel more moral and just, after the failures of President Biden, and the wrecking ball President Trump has taken to international rules and norms.
The answer many on the left are coming to is powerfully simple: international law. America could just start following the rules that we helped write. Is that possible? Is that enough? What would that even look like?
To talk through these questions, I invited Linda Kinstler on the show. She’s a member of the Society of Fellows at Harvard, a contributing writer at The New York Times Magazine, and the author of “Come to This Court and Cry: How the Holocaust Ends.” She’s done some incredible writing and reporting on whether what we’re watching is the death of international law. In this conversation, we talk about the Biden administration’s failures to live up to the principles it set for itself, the Trump administration’s campaign to destroy the International Criminal Court and what it would take to reinvigorate international law.

My colleague Ross Douthat is leaving The Times after 17 years to become a correspondent on “60 Minutes.” Before he goes, I’m asking him a few questions.
Douthat has had a unique vantage point on the news media and politics over the last few decades. He’s typically held the role of explaining the right to more liberal audiences, starting as an undergrad, when he was a conservative columnist for The Harvard Crimson. Douthat has also lived through the seismic changes in the media from the both the inside and the outside: He’s made his career at legacy media institutions, but I first got to know him – and spar with him – as an early-2000s blogger (and I have the 20-year-old Bloggingheads.tv clips to prove it).
So what does Douthat make of the transformations he’s lived through? How did blogging change journalism? How did a Republican Party powered by evangelical Christians become a political party dominated by Catholics and pagans? What has he learned about persuasion from writing for liberal audiences? And with the resources of “60 Minutes” behind him, will he finally crack the U.F.O. story once and for all?

Voici le 75e épisode du balado Cyber Citoyen. Cette semaine, Sam Harper et Catherine Dupont-Gagnon font le tour de certains sujets d'actualités liés à la vie privée et la cybersécurité.
On commence en parlant d'une situation aux États-Unis ou un activiste est menacé de prison pour avoir supprimer les données de son téléphone à l'aide d'une fonctionnalité du système d'exploitation GrapheneOS.
On poursuit avec la nouvelle que les russes sont présents dans le WiFi de l'hôtel. Microsoft a publié un rapport sur une campagne de piratage qui cible les clients des hôtels et c'est un bel exemple de techniques de piratage intéressantes. On vous explique donc ce qu'est la technique qui a été baptisée ClickFix ainsi que le "Device code phishing".
Pour en savoir plus, voici des liens:
Pour terminer, on discute d'un document de relations publiques publiés par Flock Security, la compagnie préférée de Catherine. Si vous voulez savoir ce que Catherine pense vraiment de Flock, écoutez jusqu'à la fin!
