  2.  @absolutelydegenerate1900  it has nothing to do with effort. Big brands were spending a lot of money on sponsored videos just to get a ton of negative attention. YouTube knows that if a viewer can't see the number of dislikes that they are much less likely to dislike the video themselves.

  3.  @silver6229  Starlink literally cannot be blocked in Brazil because it does not rely on any hardware on the ground other than the dish which is owned by the customer. They'd have to target the specific frequencies that Starlink uses. Even then jamming like requires a ton of power and would only affect connections near to the jammer.

  6. It is very likely the exposed azure api key was used in many critical services and revoking the key wasn't an option. Imagine it was an actual hack what would have happened.

  9. They should release code that patches the APK to not risk IP laws. They'll still get legal pressure but they'd be in the legal right. Adding adblock to your own software isn't illegal which is already confirmed by existing case law. Magisk offers a feature for patching parts of the OS or post patching apks

  11. Does Monero support arbitrary data on the chain? Is this going to be a separate blockchain?

  14. LUKS does not decrypt all the files on the file system when you enter the password. What LUKS is doing is creating a virtual mapper that intercepts read and write requests to the storage device and either encrypts or decrypts the data in memory. This mapper is never stored on the storage device. It only exists in memory which is why the hard drive is able to stay encrypted even if you yank out the power cable.
    48
  15. Suckless software falls short because it requires you to modify code to change basic settings. I do not want to have to configure my applications in code. The idea of making software patchable as a first class citizen is great and should be the norm but configuration should be done in config files.

  18. ​ @matthias6933 the email protocol cannot support encryption in its current state. There'd have to be a complete overhaul of the standard.

  19. My company blocked my use of tmux for 3 weeks until they could do a security review. Maybe security needs to not be a joke before I take them seriously.

  20. Can you explain what full chain membership proofs are?
    29
  21. You could tor proxy to that service to bypass Tor exit node blacklists. Without it services can block all tor and VPN access essentially requiring users to doxx themselves.

  23. Protonmail just released a cloud storage and collaboration product. It's very likely this could be adapted for that relatively easily.
    26
  24. They need to make the tx-extra data a one way transaction to a separate chain that way you can't associate specific tx extra data with a specific transaction. All the malicious actor would be able to see would be the presents of tx-extra data or not.

  25. It must have been downloaded over long periods of time. Pulling something that large too quickly would trigger automatic detection.

    25
  27. ​ @zuighemdanmaar752  interesting. I was unaware of ram being encrypted in enterprise settings. That would make encryption at rest much more effective since Linux uses a mapper to access data which runs in memory. The partitions themselves are never decrypted so the feds wouldn't be able to image the decrypted data without beaching the encrypted ram somehow.
    24
  28.  @robotron1236  I'm a software engineer for nearly 10 years. For me, it's not about know how. It's about not wanting to unnecessarily overcomplicate what should be a simple process. Just make it read from a file and call it a day. Making compilation required for configuration is unnecessary and tedious. Now I have to setup auto builds if I want quick iteration instead of just having it hold a socket to the files contents.
    23
  29. Yes, FOSS is only as secure as the number of people reading the code

  30.  @ezmodey1105  they're not extreme. They're just incompetent. Don't know what threat vectors to focus on. It's more about job security than actual security to these people.
    22
  31.  @Yoro.Thatcher.Demllion  not really. Most of the ddos mitigation comes from distributed caching with intelligent verification. Without massive hardware distributed it becomes near impossible to create what CloudFlare has.
    21
  32. The way they implement harm reduction is hardly harm reduction at all. It was more blanket decriminalization with no plan for harm reduction. Harm reduction can be successful if implemented correctly but the cities don't actually care about harm reduction and just care about pandering.

  37.  @thewhitefalcon8539  They can make it more difficult to download vulnerable software by making a standardized way of distributing software that isn't garbage. A trust based system is how most linux application repositories do this with open source install scripts, builds, and changes to the software is how the AUR handles it. Windows is trash because there is no easy way to know what you're running before running the application. On linux usually the binaries are openly hashed and maintained by teams of very talented people.

  38. It's not going anywhere. There's a demand for this type of service. There will be a new company that pops up tomorrow.
    15
  39. Problem with the exit nodes are that they are a single point of failure. Law enforcement and ISPs have for as long as Tor has existed targeted exit node operators with warrants, cease and desist orders, etc. Additionally, Tor has a known vulnerability where if one bad actor NSA cough cough controlled enough relays they could do correlation attacks to track the flow of traffic. Tor is legacy unfortunately and it's time to move to a better solution whatever that is.

  40.  @tylerhorn3712  it typically uses a text message to trigger a notification and breaks out of the notification engine and runs it's payload. Thats about all we know about only one of the vectors pegasus has.

  41.  @visekual6248  this isn't about freedom. This is about a foreign adversary owning a major social media platform that can be used to influence the US. They're not banning you from using TikTok, they're banning TikTok from operating in the US.
    14
  42.  @dangerous8333  This is simply not true. The entire internet is built off of linux. The majority of sensitive data is stored on hardware using the linux kernel to some degree.

  44. He wont get the death penalty. The crime can warrant the death penalty which means it is an option for the judge but it is extremely unlikely.
    12
  45.  @maruseu  it's the fact I have to compile at all instead of just loading the file as its written to or having a single command to refresh the config. If you recompile you have to restart dwm for the config to take effect. It's entirely automatable, which is what I did, but I found it unnecessarily complicated for something that is not even a primary feature of the program. I use hyprland now which is a much better experience although the config is terrible in its own ways. I disagree with the philosophy that by adding a configuration file outside of the compiled language makes the program suck. The suckless devs were trying to avoid having to dictate a way to handle configuration and somehow found the only way to make configuring the software more inconvenient somehow.
    12
  46. They're not storing the actual images. They'll store a hash of the image. Still don't like anyone especially a mega cooperation having the ability to scan my phone for any reason. Right now its CP. But what happens when the FBI issues a subpoena to apple to scan your device for firearm serial numbers? Or something similar.

  47. They don't need to unite against the US infrastructure. Look at what biden and his cronies are doing to the logistics system/supply chain. He's doing their work for them.

  48. ​ @chongjunxiang3002  making software open source does not make malware any more dangerous. Linux is far less vulnerable due to its open source nature than windows.

  49.  @thomp  I made that comment before me mentioned that. I think allowing cryptographically secure one way transactions to a separate Blockchain with tx extra data is the only way to resolve this.

  50.  @Thornskade  DaVinci resolve is a great video editor and if you absolutely have to use Photoshop (gross) then run it in wine or in a KVM box.

  51.  @Chiberia  one reason security is not seen as critical is because many security teams conflate being "safe and secure" with inefficient when in reality the more automated things are with less humans directly involved the more secure things are generally.

  56. How was the anon phone even legal? People have a right to privacy and at the point the phones were aquired there was no evidence of a crime being committed. Does the fourth amendment not apply all of a sudden?

  57.  @luizcastro5246  needing to charge you gun is dumb and the concept is flawed. You want a better solution that already exists? A biometric safe with a handgun in it. Imagine that. This "bio gun" is already limited to a nightstand gun why carry all of that unnecessary weight and complexity into a gunfight when you can leave that behind with the safe?

  58. I wonder if there's any existing service that would trade Monero for a pre-activated SIM and a new phone.

  63. It would be better to have a set of standard packet sizes that incrementally increase in size. 1kb 10kb 1mb 10mb etc. All traffic would have to pad the packets to match one of the sizes whatever is closest to make it more difficult to track. Adding random data doesn't make it any safer since it is still a distinct size from other traffic. It's all about anonymization.

  64. ​ @durchfaII  it's a meme bro. Your press F to pay respects to something that's dead.

  65.  @egg5474  Utah is generally an extremely pro privacy state. I doubt they'd give any of the deanonymized information away. Everything is already linked to our driver's license numbers. it's probably just a way to not have to carry a physical license around while driving or going to a bar since everything just scans the barcode anyway.
    5
  66. ​ @bxdda  I totally agree. Having a foreign adversary having a vice grip on one of the most popular information distribution platforms in existence is a national security threat. There's a reason they didn't want to sell tiltok to a US company and would rather shut down. I think people forget that tiltok is part of the CCP.

  67.  @MrSplosiondude  procedural is the way
    5
  68. ​ @WanderingPassports  Can you explain further? What do you mean by "the output." I understand how ring signatures and decoy transactions increase anonymity but not quite sure what you mean. Is it similar to how Tornado Cash does it where each transaction is a one way receipt only being able to verify that the receipt exists and isn't redeemed?

  69. It encrypts user files first along with files that are likely important. DB files, third party binaries, documents, etc. Then they go on to the rest of the system.

  72. I believe Whatsapp would want the full context of the conversation. And since it's not a rolling key they'd have access to the whole conversation.
    4
  73. Your client encrypts the traffic with all three public keys (I'm not sure how the client gets all three keys). And the traffic is decrypted at each step using the nodes private key. The exit node has the original traffic but does not have enough information to know where the source of the traffic comes from.

  74.  @durchfaII  I assumed you weren't aware because anyone who was aware should understand it's a meme and not act like a big Karen in the comments section

  75. Memory safety is very obviously a security enhancement. If rust is the language we should use to get memory safety, that's TBD. I think in general the US Gov has ways to deanonymize people without using memory overflow bugs so I think it mostly helps protect against other foreign actors.

  76.  @TJXD  they didn't need to crack the onion to get DPR. He had poor opsec.

  77. These hackers have been targeting government surveillance portals in addition to the infrastructure itself. Why break into each part of a very complex system when the US Gov has created a portal that grants access to all of the data the threat actor could ever want.

  85. I'm not in favor of the regulation. If people cared enough they wouldn't buy iPhones. They like the iPhone enough that they are willing to buy a proprietary chargers. Apple is no longer the only super high quality smart phone on the market. I'm not in favor of the government trying to force markets. Now when the USB-C standard goes out of date we will be stuck with an outdated charger. Still, I'm not crying because apple is a terrible company

The vi setting is usually enough to fill the same role you describe but I think !! has many more uses than you give it credit for especially when piping the output to other commands. It's all personal preference. I wouldn't say either are optimal choices. Seems like there's a serious gap in the shell for editing command parameters without some serious mental overhead.

  112. Someone posted a bomb threat on the farm. It was posted from a sleeper account that was vacant for 4 years. It was most likely a compromised account and the bomb threat was a false flag.

  128. The Dallas shooter barricaded himself in the back of a room with only one entry in an office building. They used a EOD bot to deliver a payload of explosives into the room ending the threat. I personally don't have an issue if it is used like that. The robots are not autonomous and the triggering of the explosive is manual and intentional. I take major issue with any automation of policing. Any automation from red light cameras to killer death robots does not allow for a vital component of policing which is officer discretion. My state has outlawed all automated policing for this reason.
