Putin couldn’t care less about the support from some random programmers. Be realistic, what do you expect them to do? Take up arms? Protest and get imprisoned? Vote in the sham elections?
Targeting random civilians in hopes of political change is the strategy of terrorists.
So then you agree that there is no reason to be “glad” about this?
And how exactly is banning these contributors supposed to stop the invasion? These people have no control or culpability.
Is this a threat?
This doesn’t advocate for any substantial improvement of data protections. It’s merely a convenience argument to legitimize banning Chinese cars for economic reasons. American car manufacturers will continue to harvest and sell all your data, just with less competition.
Of course, this isn’t a surprise coming from the CFR, the lobbying organization for US imperialism.
Not my idea of a good date, but to each their own
“I dropped my fair share of hard Rs back then”
Such is the fate of hypercentralized spaces. The fediverse fixes this.
I don’t see how this is so difficult. Given the choice between a narcissistic billionaire or an independent, accountable government commission that’s bound by the rule of law, I’ll choose the latter every time.
I don’t have an opinion on the matter being discussed
You know it’s an option to just… keep scrolling right? This isn’t high school, you aren’t obliged to leave a comment.
With this approach you would lose the subvolume structure and deduplication if I’m not mistaken.
Obviously acquiring publicly available data is legal
Under the EU GDPR it is often not legal. Controllers need a legal basis, which only exists if there is an appropriate relationship between the controller and the data subject.
The Google Play Store has long been the bastion for safe and worry-free app downloads
It’s nice that the article starts with this blatent lie, so that you know everything that follows is just regurgitating Google’s marketing.
Even ignoring that most of the apps in the play store are unreviewed proprietary spyware sending all their data back to Google, there have been many instances of obvious malware being distributed through the play store. It seems like they are trying to sweep that under the rug.
The most common physical attacks will be you misplacing your device or some friend/burglar/cop taking it. FDE works great in those scenarios.
RCS is walled off by design, so that users are dependent on Google and their phone carrier. If they wanted an open standard they would have adopted something like XMPP.
The uMatrix add-on for Firefox seems to do what you want.
Do you have experience with Spanish employment law?
Key servers can be dishonest, so you need to have another way of verifying that the key you receive is correct.
Even if you computer is not exposed to the internet: are you certain that every other device on the network is safe (even on public wifi)? Would you immediately raise the alarm if you saw a second printer in the list with the same name, or something like “Print to file”? I think I personally could fall for that under the right circumstances.
