Computer Scientists Achieve ‘Crown Jewel’ of Cryptography - indistinguishability obfuscation

2020-11-11 Thread coderman
https://www.quantamagazine.org/computer-scientists-achieve-crown-jewel-of-cryptography-20201110/

In 2018, [Aayush Jain](https://sites.google.com/view/aayushjain/home), a 
graduate student at the University of California, Los Angeles, traveled to 
Japan to give a talk about a powerful cryptographic tool he and his colleagues 
were developing. As he detailed the team’s approach to indistinguishability 
obfuscation (iO for short), one audience member raised his hand in bewilderment.

“But I thought iO doesn’t exist?” he said.

At the time, such skepticism was widespread. Indistinguishability obfuscation, 
if it could be built, would be able to hide not just collections of data but 
the inner workings of a computer program itself, creating a sort of 
cryptographic master tool from which nearly every other cryptographic protocol 
could be built. It is “one cryptographic primitive to rule them all,” said 
[Boaz Barak](https://www.boazbarak.org/) of Harvard University. But to many 
computer scientists, this very power made iO seem too good to be true.

Computer scientists set forth candidate versions of iO starting in 2013. But 
the intense excitement these constructions generated gradually fizzled out, as 
other researchers figured out how to break their security. As the attacks piled 
up, “you could see a lot of negative vibes,” said [Yuval 
Ishai](http://www.cs.technion.ac.il/~yuvali/) of the Technion in Haifa, Israel. 
Researchers wondered, he said, “Who will win: the makers or the breakers?”

“There were the people who were the zealots, and they believed in [iO] and kept 
working on it,” said Shafi Goldwasser, director of the Simons Institute for the 
Theory of Computing at the University of California, Berkeley. But as the years 
went by, she said, “there was less and less of those people.”

Now, Jain — together with [Huijia 
Lin](https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~rachel/) of the University of Washington 
and [Amit Sahai](http://web.cs.ucla.edu/~sahai/), Jain’s adviser at UCLA — has 
planted a flag for the makers. In a [paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/1003) 
posted online on August 18, the three researchers show for the first time how 
to build indistinguishability obfuscation using only “standard” security 
assumptions.

Aayush Jain, a graduate student at the University of California, Los Angeles, 
in Oakland this month.

Eleena Mohanty

All cryptographic protocols rest on assumptions — some, such as the famous RSA 
algorithm, depend on the widely held belief that standard computers will never 
be able to quickly factor the product of two large prime numbers. A 
cryptographic protocol is only as secure as its assumptions, and previous 
attempts at iO were built on untested and ultimately shaky foundations. The new 
protocol, by contrast, depends on security assumptions that have been widely 
used and studied in the past.

“Barring a really surprising development, these assumptions will stand,” Ishai 
said.

While the protocol is far from ready to be deployed in real-world applications, 
from a theoretical standpoint it provides an instant way to build an array of 
cryptographic tools that were previously out of reach. For instance, it enables 
the creation of “deniable” encryption, in which you can plausibly convince an 
attacker that you sent an entirely different message from the one you really 
sent, and “functional” encryption, in which you can give chosen users different 
levels of access to perform computations using your data.

The new result should definitively silence the iO skeptics, Ishai said. “Now 
there will no longer be any doubts about the existence of indistinguishability 
obfuscation,” he said. “It seems like a happy end.”

The Crown Jewel

For decades, computer scientists wondered if there is any secure, 
all-encompassing way to obfuscate computer programs, allowing people to use 
them without figuring out their internal secrets. Program obfuscation would 
enable a host of useful applications: For instance, you could use an obfuscated 
program to delegate particular tasks within your bank or email accounts to 
other individuals, without worrying that someone could use the program in a way 
it wasn’t intended for or read off your account passwords (unless the program 
was designed to output them).

But so far, all attempts to build practical obfuscators have failed. “The ones 
that have come out in real life are ludicrously broken, … typically within 
hours of release into the wild,” Sahai said. At best, they offer attackers a 
speed bump, he said.

In 2001, bad news came on the theoretical front too: The strongest form of 
obfuscation is impossible. Called black box obfuscation, it demands that 
attackers should be able to learn absolutely nothing about the program except 
what they can observe by using the program and seeing what it outputs. Some 
programs, Barak, Sahai and five other researchers 
[showed](https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/3-540-44647-8_1), reveal

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/trump-files-emergency-injunction-michigan-demands-recount-over-fraud-malfunctioning

The Trump campaign has requested an emergency injunction in a federal
lawsuit aimed at preventing the State of Michigan from certifying the
results of last week's election until election officials can certify
that only legally cast, on time, and legally observed ballots are
included in the count. The campaign is alleging several types of
fraud, misconduct, and invalidated ballots based on a number of
reasons - including 'malfunctioning' vote counting machines made by
Dominion Voting Systems.

The Tuesday night filing in the US District Court for the Western
District of Michigan alleges, among other things, that officials
prevented GOP challengers from observing the count, scanned "batches
of the same ballots multiple times," illegally accepted and pre-dated
late ballots, including from unmonitored drop boxes, and that election
workers illegally duplicated ballots," according to a statement from
the campaign. The lawsuit requeusts that the court toss all ballots
not observed by a GOP election challenger who has been "allowed to
meaningfully observe the process and the handling and counting of the
ballot."

2020 (photo: Kimberly P. Mitchell, Detroit Free Press)

The complaint includes "more than one hundred credentialed election
challengers" who have provided "sworn affidavits" that they were
prevented from reviewing the ballot count, or validate the legitimacy
of absentee ballots. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is
accused in the suit of failing to follow state election code, which
allowed "fraud and incompetence to corrupt the conduct of the 2020
general election."

GOP challengers allegedly blocked and intimidated:

Many challengers testified that their ability to view the
handling, processing, and  counting of ballots was physically and
intentionally blocked by election officials.

At least three challengers said they were physically pushed away
from counting tables by election officials to a distance that was too
far to observe the counting.

Republican challengers who left the TCF Center were not allowed to
return, while Democrats were, resulting in "many more Democratic
challengers allowed to observe the processing and counting of absent
voter ballots."

Many challengers testified that they were intimidated, threatened,
and harassed by election officials during the ballot processing and
counting process.

Batches of ballots run through multiple times:

Multiple GOP challengers attested that "batches of ballots were
repeatedly run through the vote tabulation machines," with one
challenger saying she observed "a stack of about fifty ballots being
fed multiple times into a ballot scanner counting machine." Another
challenger claims they "observed a station where election workers were
working on scanned ballots that had issues that needed to be manually
corrected," adding "I believe some of these workers were changing
votes that had been cast for Donald Trump and other Republican
candidates."

When challengers did bring up issues with ballots, they were "ignored
and disregarded," according to the complaint, with one claiming that
"ballots with votes for Trump were separated from other ballots," and
that when they raised challenges over ballot numbers which didn't
match their envelopes, they were "disregarded and ignored by election
officials," and the "ballots were processed and counted."

The filing also claims that ballots which could not be read by a
machine were unlawfully duplicated out of the view of challengers, and
weren't conducted by a bipartisan pair of election inspectors.

Faulty tabulation software:

The suit notes that in Antrim County, Michigan, voting machines
manufactured by Dominion Voting Systems "were at fault" when they
erroneously gave over 6,000 Trump votes to former Vice President Joe
Biden. The 'error' - potentially affecting the same machines used in
Wayne County - was blamed by Secretary of State Benson on a county
clerk who failed to update certain "media drives."

Also noted were Dominion machine errors in Oakland County Michigan,
which resulted in a Democrat being wrongly declared the winner of a
commissioner's race by 104 votes - only to

“Shredding The Fabric Of Our Democracy”: Biden Aide Signals Push For
Greater Censorship On The Internet

We have been discussing the calls for top Democrats for increased
private censorship on social media and the Internet.  President-elect
Joe Biden has himself called for such censorship, including blocking
President Donald Trump’s criticism of mail-in voting. Now, shortly
after the election, one of Biden’s top aides is ramping up calls for a
crackdown on Facebook for allowing Facebook users to read views that
he considers misleading — users who signed up to hear from these
individuals.  Bill Russo, a deputy communications director on Biden’s
campaign press team, tweeted late Monday that Facebook “is shredding
the fabric of our democracy” by allowing such views to be shared
freely.

Russo tweeted that “If you thought disinformation on Facebook was a
problem during our election, just wait until you see how it is
shredding the fabric of our democracy in the days after.” Russo
objected to the fact that, unlike Twitter, Facebook did not move
against statements that he and the campaign viewed as “misleading.” He
concluded. “We pleaded with Facebook for over a year to be serious
about these problems. They have not. Our democracy is on the line. We
need answers.”

For those of us in the free speech community, these threats are
chilling. We saw incredible abuses before the election in Twitter
barring access to a true story in the New York Post about Hunter Biden
and his alleged global influence peddling scheme. Notably, no one in
the Biden camp (including Biden himself) thought that it was a threat
to our democracy to have Twitter block the story (while later
admitting that it was a mistake).

I have previously objected to such regulation of speech. What is most
disturbing is how liberals have embraced censorship and even declared
that “China was right” on Internet controls. Many Democrats have
fallen back on the false narrative that the First Amendment does not
regulate private companies so this is not an attack on free speech.
Free speech is a human right that is not solely based or exclusively
defined by the First Amendment.  Censorship by Internet companies is a
“Little Brother” threat long discussed by free speech advocates.  Some
may willingly embrace corporate speech controls but it is still a
denial of free speech.

This is why I recently described myself as an Internet Originalist:

The alternative is “internet originalism” — no censorship. If
social media companies returned to their original roles, there would
be no slippery slope of political bias or opportunism; they would
assume the same status as telephone companies. We do not need
companies to protect us from harmful or “misleading” thoughts. The
solution to bad speech is more speech, not approved speech.

If Pelosi demanded that Verizon or Sprint interrupt calls to stop
people saying false or misleading things, the public would be
outraged. Twitter serves the same communicative function between
consenting parties; it simply allows thousands of people to
participate in such digital exchanges. Those people do not sign up to
exchange thoughts only to have Dorsey or some other internet overlord
monitor their conversations and “protect” them from errant or harmful
thoughts.

Russo’s comments mirror the comments of other Democrats who are
seeking greater censorship. Indeed, in the recent Senate hearing on
Twitter’s suppression of the Biden story, Democratic senators ignored
the admissions of Big Tech CEOs that they were wrong to bar the story
and, instead, insisted that the CEOs pledge to substantially increase
such censorship. Senator Jacky Rosen warned the CEOS that “you are not
doing enough” to prevent “disinformation, conspiracy theories and hate
speech on your platforms.”

Again, as someone raised in a deeply liberal and Democratic family in
Chicago, I do not know when the Democratic party became the party for
censorship. However, limiting free speech is now a rallying cry for
Democratic members and activists alike. At risk is the single greatest
invention for free speech since the printing press.  Russo’s comments
reaffirms that the Biden Administration will continue this assault
against Internet free speech.  What is most unnerving is that Russo is
denouncing such free speech as “shredding the fabric of our
democracy.” There was a time when free speech was the very right that
we fought to protect in our democratic

and looks suddenly at State Worker):  "The fuck???" 

Dead State Worker's Mobile Phone: "Contacting Cleanup.  Thank you for using

#2

panel 1: (torture victim, excited supporter, and/or rebel worker visit
mailing list, assume it is super cool, archive it and spread it everywhere)

panel 2:
Scene: Former Secretary of State's office

Cleanup Worker (formerly secretary of state, bloody wires leaving neatly
combed hair, gesturing at corpse of State Worker, talking to Machine
Learning Marketer): "Boss can't see well and needs to hear it from the
horse's mouth, and the horse is dead.  Could you fix up a video chat for us
where the horse is alive?"

Machine Learning Marketer (knows nothing about machine learning, is new to

still alive.  Boss is in a hospital bed.

Corpse of State Worker (blurry due to severe issues Boss is having): "Boss,
I am your loyal servant.  The mailing list has been cleaned up."

#3

Standing Corpse of State Worker: "I have bad news.  The rebel mailing list
posts we've been using to share propaganda are predicted to make more
rebels than propaganda."

every old person's home in a county, by amazing coincidence, applying
for an absentee ballot at the exact same time, different people in
different nursing homes all happen to take action simultaneously.

How is someone in an old person's home going to secure their
cryptographic keys?

Of course this would not be a problem with sovereign corporations,
because a share is a vote controlling assets, and you are supposed to be
able to buy and sell your vote.

I like Moldbug's idea of sovereign corporation whose product is the
protection of people and assets.

Democracies have a long and disastrous history.  They work for a little
while, work great, unlike socialism where people usually start going
hungry the second harvest after socialism was instituted.

But they end horribly, with a mob of degenerates on welfare being
manipulated by the shapers of public opinion, and eventually who is in
charge is actually settled by frequent violence, rather than by voting.

Trump has six hundred millon in debt, and, according to you twenty
billion in assets.

Hence nineteen billion, and I think you are wildly under estimating his
assets.  Most of his assets are far beyond Manhattan.  I can visit Trump
facilities all over the world.

Darling,

Read 2016 archives.  I know exactly who I am and what I did before.

I am not being a coward, or a lazy, I am just giving priority to my
physical and psychological health in this moment.

A dead person can _not_ research, so I need to keep myself alive and, if
possible, comfortable.  So I gave up of two personal projects tonight
because they were hurting me.

Respect my pain, please.  I've spent more than an year in an inutile,
unuseful way.  Now I need to fix everything, uff...  :-/

Sorry, I don't understand part of your references and I am not trying to
play the "good cop".  I am completely free for choosing what I want to read
or not, what I want to do or not.  Anarchism and Freedom, correct?  :)

Peace, please.  <3

Ceci
