Understanding privacy challenges in the age where data is everything

The Problem

• Most critical data is in the form of plain text (CVV, phone numbers, full name, email, SSN etc.).
• Plaintext unlike an image (/soundtrack/email) lacks metadata indicating the source of the data. [ELI5: metadata is a set of attributes such as last modified, device created on etc. which is always associated with the file (such as an image) even if someone copies it to a new device]
• Now the problem with this is that a decade ago we shared important credentials only with a few sources. But now there are a ton of different apps and services with long list of convoluted clauses that make it extremely difficult to know the implications of sharing data.
• For example, there have been cases where services like TrueCaller sell user datasets for money to advertisers etc.
• The issue here is that once an adversary has gained access to private data such as email/card number/phone number there is no way to find the originating sour

Delving into the why's of AXI

**Note: In all below, slave can also mean interconnect

• Do we really need back-pressure?
  • Yes, you absolutely need backpressure. What happens when two masters want to access the same slave? One has to be blocked for some period of time. Some slaves may only be able to handle a limited number of concurrent operations and take some time to produce a result. As such, backpressure is required.
  • B and R channel backpressure is required in the case of contention towards the master. If a master makes burst read requests against two different slaves, one of them is gonna have to wait.
    • Shouldn't a master be prepared to receive the responses for any requests it issues from the moment it makes the request? Aside from the clock crossing issue someone else brought up, and the interconnect issue at the heart of the use of IDs, why should an AXI master ever stall R or B channels?
• The master should be prepared, but it only has one R and one B input, so it can't re

CoreScore Leaderboard

The intent is to capture available statistics for the CoreScore project. This could be useful to analyze cores vs specific hardware, core count over time or simply admire the glorious core numbers. Ran into this thought because I wanted to find out if someone has already run CoreScore on one of the FPGA boards that I wanted to try it on.

26-May: The statistic so far is from tweets on @OlofKindgren. Hopefully, I will continually update this. My immediate intent is to get this running on my Nexys Video. Feel free to update your results.
