Blog post about a talk by Ken Thompson and the original Trusting Trust attack finally released

[Marcel Fourné]

Hello list,

Russ Cox posted https://research.swtch.com/nih and disseminates the original Ken Thompson compiler backdoor in this, together with a link https://research.swtch.com/v6/ to follow along in a simulator.
More of historical importance, but definitely interesting and relevant to this group, which is also mentioned in the posting.
The talk by Thompson which sparked all this is linked to as well at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kaandEt_pKw&t=643s

Cheers
Marcel
