With 'only one country', I assume you refer to South Africa. Are you aware that the ANC itself approved of nuclear disarmament?
If you look at the Budapest Memorandum, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine also voluntarily gave up their nuclear arsenals by becoming a party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons in exchange for security guarantees.
I found the open source Valetudo (https://github.com/Hypfer/Valetudo) project quite interesting, as it sits between the vendor firmware and (cloud) connectivity. The project is made possible due to Dennis Giese's research.
It currently supports Dreame, Xiaomi, Roborock and some others. But not Ecovacs.
And not sure it prevents this type of Bluetooth vulnerabilities.
That's a much requested feature. With imho two main challenges:
1. Much traffic data is private / requires licensing, however some countries have reasonable public data.
For example the TraffXML (https://gitlab.com/traffxml) project has some.
2. The project is free to use, but also volunteer driven. It requires setting up a privacy preserving "live data" infrastructure.
If you think this is a nice challenge and you can help, feel free to reach out!
Cool projects! I actually had a look at you gtfs-server, to use Rust for processing GTFS files. Processing GTFS (basically large zipped text files) is quite resource intensive indeed, especially if you want to do it for the whole planet. What would you do differently now?
Thanks for bringing this up to hackernews! The challenge for OrganicMaps is to make it privacy preserving and offline usable, which means on device routing and getting as much information on the device as possible.
The referred document concerns the existing static part, it's a rather cumbersome to build it yourself at the moment. There is some routing logic in the app - I think from the Maps.me time - but currently disabled.
The idea is to redesign this - in the mentioned ticket - and divide it in static (e.g. stops, routes) and 'live' data (e.g. schedule changes). It requires an efficient infrastructure. It's all volunteer driven. If you want to help, feel free to contribute!
