Early life

Jaap Nunes Vaz was born in Amsterdam on 20 September 1906 to Isaac Nunes Vaz and Daatje Kinsbergen.[1] Isaac's father was of Sephardic Jewish ancestry and both of his parents were of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. Jaap became a journalist once he graduated from school and joined the Onafhankelijke Socialistische Partij, a revolutionary socialist political party in the Netherlands. He held multiple jobs at different press agencies including Algemeen Nederlands Persbureau where he was a star reporter at the time of the German invasion.[2] He was fired from his job in the fall of 1940 after the "Aryan Declaration".

Het Parool

Nunes Vaz hosted the first meeting of the Het Parool editorial board in his room on the Keizersgracht. He worked on the editorial board until he became the 5th executive editor, writing lead articles for the paper.[3]

Death

On 25 October 1942, Nunes Vaz was arrested by the Gestapo after his hiding place was discovered in Wageningen. He was first sent to a convict prison in Scheveningen nicknamed "Orange Hotel" but was eventually transferred to Sobibór extermination camp via Westerbork where he was killed on 13 March 1943.[1][4]

gollark: Yes, that is somewhat ungood and suspicious.
gollark: Yes, indeed.
gollark: > > There's also a few snippets of code on the Android version that allows for the downloading of a remote zip file, unzipping it, and executing said binary> so here's the thing, TikTok as an app, continuously downloads files i.e video files, it's kinda the whole point. there's nothing "odd" about being able to download and extract zip files, the odd thing is delivering executables via zip. however, this is a non-issue and honestly a red herring, why?This is irrelevant. Yes, downloading video files is normal, downloading extra code which might be doing whatever (subject to sandboxing, at least) is not.
gollark: It could record locally and upload later, though.
gollark: This person apparently reverse-engineered it statically, not at runtime, but it *can* probably detect if you're trying to reverse-engineer it a bit while running.
