I have a few devices with no public drivers of any kind. Thinking about how to develop drivers on Linux, I’m guessing I should lookup into the chipsets used on the board and see if those companies have drivers I can use as a starting point?
You misunderstand how end to end encryption works and what the vulnerabilities were. These are not MITM attacks. I suggest you read the article or the affidavit, they do a good job explaining what happened.
Sometimes you can do a deal for a smaller dollar value, less intense legal / financial hurdle. Get on the approved vendor list, receive income while you negotiate a larger more complicated approval process for a larger deal.

So it’s better to get that set aside for as far out as possible so you don’t have to go back to congress every year and risk political machinations. The 12 year funding is likely a 6 year contract with two optional 3 year renewals or one 6 year optional renewal.

If everyone could afford to hire a PI to dig up dirt on some random person they didn’t like, it would be a highly regulated industry. Because it’s mainly a service only the powerful or wealthy can afford no one bothers.
Any improvement in reading plates at a angle? From my experiments it’s very difficult to ready plates from dash cameras of cars in the left and right lane, even though the human eye can identify them.
