This is the community for all things hacking and cybersecurity, try keeping it legal. That said I don't take any responsibility for anything that happens/comes from this group but I will try being the best mod that I can to prevent anything from happening.

Hey everyone yesterday I was at a grocery store and I noticed suspicious WiFi networks and Bluetooth networks. I am quite tech savvy so I decided to investigate thinking it was probably just some skid. But when I opened Wireshark I saw the mac addressees for Cisco Merkari (A relatively advanced DPI program) , along with multiple other enterprise grade tools such as Fortinet and VMware. I have collected pcaps for both my Bluetooth and WiFi interfaces with Wireshark(available upon request). Does anyone have any idea could this be a government contractor? Or could it just be spoofed cause its relatively easy to spooph Mac addresses.

Just be careful to not to do anything to computers you don't control or have permission to access. An underage person here port scanned a bank, which then got pretty expensive. (12 000€)

As far as I understand, a/b partitions are pretty common for immutable systems, like Android & immutable Linux distributions. Why did you choose f2fs instead of something like ext4 or zfs? It's Flash Friendly FileSystem, right, or does it mean something else too?
