IIRC YouTube Premium also comes with YouTube Music, which coming from a former Google Music user, the plan was a no-brainer.

If YT Music great? Well, no but it's fine. It has my music, podcasts and decent recommendation algorithm. Paired that with commerical free YT and it's a stellar offer.

Also if a CE enters into a BA with some company, AFAIK, data sharing can basically occurs without issue and still maintaining compliance since patient consent to data sharing occurs with the CEs.

I might not be articulating my point super well since this is HN and I hate typing long drawout thoughts on boards. That being said I understand the situations are different but to me, the sentiment still feels like it should be applied?

On one hand you have the FTC fining a company for violations of data sharing, which I am assuming of the one of the concerns is patient privacy. Which to me, seems like a net good thing. Again I would prefer it to be more, but better then not doing nothing at all I suppose.

On the other hand, you have one giant company with access to mounds of consumer data purchasing even more sensitive healthcare data without even a blink of the eye.

Why was this not challenged? Why fine one company? I might be overthinking it but it seems like a misalignment of priorities. The point of the FTC is to protect consumers, shouldn't both have been investigated? I guess that was the point I was trying to make. Idk, I feel like I'm just rambling at this point.

Doesn't allow data sharing from GoodRX to FB, Google etc. But does allow Amazon to purchase One Medical. I feel like both are pretty bad. But I am trying to understand the logic between allowing one and not the other? Am I missing something?

Also $1.5 million, in relative terms, seems pretty small. So again, data violations just seem to be the cost of doing business.

I actually just applied. I'm not expecting to hear anything back, but I just want to say how much I appreciate the in-dept explanation of how roles in the company are designed and how long each portion of the interview process would take. That kind of detail and information is rare, but I appreciate the thoughtfulness.

Hello all, I'm Benjamin and I am a IT/Security/Network/Sys admin located in Ohio. My company is exiting the business and closing up shop and is no longer in need of IT personnel. I am attempting to find a job in any form of IT or IT Security. I have a few certs under my belt and I am currently studying for an Azure cert to improve my cloud game. I love learning and I am willing to take a stab at anything. Thanks!

It did, but it wasn't a huge success. Cobra Kai was actually a YT OG, it was a gem among a lot of duds.

We went from HipChat to Teams and Teams is much better.

Huh, I always had this concept in my mind but never knew it actually had a phrase with some legal precedent.

I think it is, but there is also a fork call VSCodium without the telemetry, I guess people could just pivot to that?

Any advice you would give for brushing up a resume? I'm not a dev but work in IT and do a lot of admin work, networking and a lot of security work. I am having a super hard time fitting all of the skills and tools I use on a one page resume. I had considered using like a GitHub Pages resume but haven't had a solid reason to do so.

This has led me to calling Indigenous people, North American Indians, Central America Indians, etc.

I mean, I might be generalizing here but I think the target audience for Krebs is usually security minded individuals who probably don't need an explanation as to why having your credit information leaked is bad.

Someone is doing a Hyperion adaption?! Man. That could be some GoT/HotD level of scope.

IIRC Gibson stated that Neuromancer is basically "un-movieable". I love the book and the rest of the Sprawl series but man. Neuromancer is a SUPER busy book with a lot going on. And I just think in today's world it would be hard to really capture the vibe AND have a good plot that isn't convoluted.

But I am with you. Hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

This is correct. They use census blocks for reporting. So all of these claims are widely over-represented. In theory if an ISP has "Broadband" to one household in a census block, the entire block then is considered to have "Broadband" access even if that is not the case.

Wrote my thesis on US broadband the whole thing made my blood pressure go up.

I have had these concerns with public tools like VirusTotal JoesSandbox, Hybrid analysis and the like and whenever I utilize them I always make a point of not submitting something that is sensitive to the org I work for. Most of it revolves around domains/URLs I want checked as apart of my phishing "toolkit".

But wow! I did not realize just how much data they had access to and the types of URLs people would want scanned.

That being said, good on urlscan for making changes, reaching out to customers and setting up a best practice guide in response to these concerns.

I disagree with some of your second statement. I'm pretty handy and my dad is a carpenter. My significant other sand I spent almost a year and a half looking for a "fixer-upper" homes with the intent to buy and fix and live. For that entire year and a half almost every time we found a home that wasn't a complete trainwreck, someone would come in (sometimes from out of state) pay cash sight unseen and they would get the home. Considering this was going to be our first home, we couldn't compete.

A few months later, we would see the same home back on the market, with a significant markup and basically some light tile work, and a coat of paint. Not really worth the "fee" IMO.

Further, most of the "flipped" homes we looked at were absolutely done by DIYers. Not to knock people who have the drive to do it, but the work was absolutely not to professional standards and not worth the price listed.

So to say that buyers are free to buy fixers-uppers isn't completely true, nor fair.

Other "fun" fact. I went to a B-Sides conference where one of the higher ups from the Bro Platform talked about how they had to purchase the domain from a fraternity.

Zeek is cool but I always thought Bro was a neat name for a sec product.

Wowza. I would ask a sort of rhetorical question about how could Microsoft let this happen. Then quickly realize that is Microsoft and I'm not all that surprised.

The icing on the cake? "The report was not considered meeting the bar for security servicing, nor is it considered a breach. No code change was made and so no CVE was issued for this report."

So basically, they know about it and don't seem to give a shit.

Not surprising. I did my thesis on community run broadband networks and the handful of WISPs I studied all had really pitiful offerings (comparatively speaking). Kind of sad, but the writing was on the wall with 4G being generally available in the US.

WISPs are such a cool idea, but I'm glad to see fiber and 5G being rolled out. Not a huge fan of mobile providers gaining bigger market shares but that's the nature of the beast.

Parrot (French) drone company, I think had some Swift dev work.

What would be the ramifications? IBM now has a forked version of ODF and Ceph with enterprise support? Ceph and ODF get abandoned?

Serious question - given its track record, why would anyone trust the CIA at this point? The promise of something better? Blackmail?

I agree. I enjoyed Roadside Picnic as its such a unique take on the ET visitation genre but my god is it depressing.

I still think it could have the potential be a really interesting TV show. Personally I think the slow nature of the book lends itself towards the show format.

Further, IIRC I believe that soviet authors/translators were able to skirt censorship for the LoTR books by wrapping them in a Sci-Fi setting. Soviet writer for science fiction are some of my favorites.

I think the reasons are just that: an administration change, fumbling about, lawsuits (if any) among other things. One specific reason appears to be that some hospitals were able to file waivers apply for exceptions. [1]. Not that I agree with any of these reason.

Really? Thats actually a super interesting theory that I had never considered before. Any more info, I'd love to look into this.

I understand that is the intent, but again, seems unfeasible and more then likely, impossible. So again - how does one enforce this?

Asking because I would genuinely love to know. But how could they enforce a provision like that in the current globalized economy? China for good and bad is basically the worlds factory and even if a product is made in the US, chances are some of its components or raw materials came from China, so essentially to my untrained perspective seems impossible.

It might not be so much that the fiber itself is expensive. It might just be the conduit or other delivery mechanism that can be rather costly to run. But in general, fiber is absolutely a viable option for rural communities, usually if the project/roll out is being handled by some local organization (Co-op or municipality or as you sated a smaller cable company). I wrote my thesis on community owned broadband programs in Ohio and did a fair amount of research on the topic.
