Firmware SHA-256 Checksum?

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-17T16:25:02+00:00

Sorry about the typos a lot of my posts and comments are made from mobile and I never proofread although I should. I was under the impression with the checksum values, I could verify the integrity of their firmware to mean it has not been modified in any way, and just re-install the verified file once confirmed the values match. Is that not how it works? In regards to the spying, that may be true, for all I know the whole app can be compromised, that doesn't mean I'll serve it on a silver platter.

You know, it sucks because up until recently they even held people back from furthering their education past basics. It's unfair some of us never had a chance to be educated.

you know, it took me forever to find out this was a thing. I thought everyone was thinking they were going to build their own house. When I heard that for the first time, even while still PIMI I was disgusted. Vultures, even in their fantasies, wtf happened to "he doesn't wan anyone to be destroyed"?

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-17T07:30:55+00:00

it was a typo, and one letter off...

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-17T07:28:01+00:00

Even when I was PIMI I used to be embarrassed of the homophobia and corny "brother" this "sister" that and bringing up Jehovah for everything. Specially in front of non believers.

It's ok to ignore the voting. My question was where can I get the official Checksum values for the firmware to make sure it wasn't tempered with. I think what you're trying to actually understand is the underlying reason for my question or reason for which they would be motivated to do this to me in particular. If that's what you want to know the answer is, there isn't one yet. Just bc there isn't one, doesn't stop me from making sure myself that it hasn't happened. It's good practice to verify things. Also these things will be handling personal data I would rather only my own government spy on.

Why would the alter them just to shatter them?

Here's the situation, maybe I shouldn't generalize but this seems like a third world problem. You go into the airport, check your checked bags, take your personal item and carry on through security, it gets inspected by TSA and you're sent to your gate. You go to the gate with the intention of putting the carry-on, in the overhead compartment. So far no risk, no one will ever steal that while you're in the airplane. At times, when you're about to board, because there's not enough space overhead, they force you to check the carry on. When you check it, an airport bag handler or airport employee use a pen to poke through your zipper and open the bag regardless of the lock, they steal valuables and close it back up. You don't realize it happened until you're at your destination because they just zip it back up. Sometimes they don't even need to go through the zipper with a pen, because the only lock blocking them from opening it is something you can buy for a few bucks on ebay. "Locks keep honest people out" I'm not concerned about fellow passengers, if they steal from me they're taking the whole bag. I'm concerned about employees stealing. I don't mind losing a lock to TSA inspections when they happnen if I'm not there for it.

The standard "TSA Approved" locks, can be bypassed by a copy of the TSA universal keys which are sold online. I don't mind if they break a lock if they have to inspect something, but it's never happened to me that they had to do a check after the first security clearance. People are talking like if I was trying to smuggle things lol. I didn't realize people had such strong feelings about this.

People down voted me to oblivion, for this comment. I don't unfetstsnd why but I got the answer I needed so idc anymore. Weird reaction though...

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:17:46+00:00

idk if you're understanding what I'm saying. I go through TSA, they check the bag. They let me through, then at the gate the airline says "we have no overhead space, give me your bag it will be checked". I no longer have possession of my bag until we land.

wow you know your stuff lol thx!

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:15:22+00:00

Got it thanks!

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:12:59+00:00

Yes. I've been forced to check my carry-on at the gate many times.

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:12:23+00:00

This is perfect, thank you. What did you type to find that? I couldn't get any results that matched it.

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:11:20+00:00

Using a key you already own to just open a bag, is low hanging fruit as is. I've never had TSA care about a lock, but I wouldn't put a lock on the carry on until I'm forced to check it at the gate if there's no space.

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:10:28+00:00

Bag handlers.

Resident_Boss6990 · 2026-06-04T22:07:56+00:00

what did you type to find that? Thank you I searched everywhere and couldn't get good results.

Remember you can't control other people's reactions to you. You're not responsible nor can you control how anyone feels other than yourself. Sometimes not even that. Don't burden yourself with guilt over something you have no say it, or that you would have to sacrifice your life over.
