That'd be nice.

But all we got is Linux on the desktop...

Somewhat? I often compare it to a mix of Twitter and Reddit for people that haven't experienced IRC.

If you have experienced IRC, it's basically that. You have smaller rooms (groups) and bigger ones. Every room has their active 1%, their own rules and customs and after a while, their own inside jokes etc.

Otherwise, it's a bit like reddit because you join groups that are usually about a certain topic / niche (general programming, JavaScript, Counter Strike, cooking, what have you) and it's also a bit like twitter because there's often a "hot topic" for a day or two with small things happening in between. Also because no one in their right mind treats those chats like actual group chats, as in, you don't read all the messages you missed. After a weekend i have at least 10k "missed messages".

This comparison is also cool because it reminds you to treat telegram just like reddit and twitter: it's public basically. Anyone can join groups you're in and log every message (there's plenty bots that do that) and they can see the contents of a public group even without joining. It's not encrypted by default and frankly, barely anyone uses secret chats, if only because ppl are on their desktop half the time anyway

What is "listening" to music though. I remember multiple instances where I put on a Spotify playlist or an album, and went into full-focus for 2hrs, only to realize that I disabled looping and I have actually not heard any music for half the time at least.

I turn off my phone when I go to sleep and turn it on in the morning. It requires me to enter the password then, while I'm still at home and never prompted me to enter it over the day again

Additionally, take a look at the official Californian data Broker registry:

https://oag.ca.gov/data-brokers

a) Yes. Amongst others, many ISPs sell data. I picked comcast as a random example, here in Germany ISPs do that too:

"We may also share personal information that does not identify you with third parties for their own marketing and advertising purposes, which you can opt out of. This mainly occurs when you interact with our websites and mobile applications that contain third-party cookies or other advertising trackers. To learn more about this, please read our Cookies Notice."

Coupled with: https://www.vice.com/en/article/gygx7y/your-anonymous-browsi...

b) Afaik there's data brokers that know this and collect data from many different kinds of sources (isps being only one of them) those then sell to people like private investigators and private intelligence companies. Sadly I don't have a source ready, I learned this on a podcast and completely forgot which one. But the vice article above goes into that direction too.

c) That's correct, but that's also already valuable on it's own. I assume the /pathnames/ can come from third party tracking / ad companies, but dns data alone is also valuable. It's all in the patters of the (meta)data

d) Very likely exciting to many. Voyeurism and the "forbidden apple" aren't exactly new concepts

I think they're just selling their iDevices on there

In india.

Since most countries limit travel, it'll take longer to get around

Idk about why they do it, but I can remember them! I read many many blog posts and if someone happens to ask me about a certain topic and I remember reading an blog post about it, I usually have to google or search my notes for it. Not with flatkill.org and with doesmysiteneedhttps.com

These two I always remember. So that's maybe why

Not looking forward to a future where a insert CDN here outage stops me from grocery shopping.

I always hated when people sent me screenshots instead of just downloading the images, but for the reasons you mentioned I know often find myself screenshotting stuff....

At least I cut the image so it's not obvious

> chances are

There you have it

What you are describing here sounds to me like phishing, where as what is described in the article sounds like those people deliberately share their accounts with bot farms. Willingly.

explorer.exe . Has always worked for me from inside wsl

I think I explained myself badly. Im entering sites INTO https://web.dev that we make at work. Web.dev is basically Google Lighthouse and tests your website for basic performance, seo, best practices and A11Y.

So for example I enter mycustomer.com and it tells me "avoid http redirects" because I didn't enter the https:// before.

Hsts is included in one of our packages which also includes CSP settings and other security stuff, but barely anyone buys that.

I'm interested If that behavior will be the same when using web.dev

Usually when I enter a site to test it there, it always tells me to avoid redirects. I think HSTS would would have also solved this, but our (managed) hosting provider does not offer this as a default, and doing it manually for the amount of sites is not really practical. At least not the sites that are already done.

Thats kinda what the PayPal support told me when I asked why half of my in-store payments via Google Pay get rejected.

Most were payments of about 2€ in the same store next to work.

Whatever I dont use it anymore

These are exactly the cases that worry me. ML / AI is not ready to be used like that. IDK if it ever will be, but they are already using it in production anyways.

Google one gives you support it says. I had an issue with gpay once and the support chat was available and seemingly working.

But when your account is suspended that doesn't really help you eh

This happens again and again. I have had that happen to my twitter account. I see this regulary on HN.

My suspicion is that this is mostly happening because platforms that big like google or twitter rely very heavily on machine learning and other AI related technology to ban people. Because honestly, the amount of spam and abuse that are likely happening on these platforms has to be mind boggling high.

So I get why they would try to automate bans.

But after years and years of regular high profile news of false positives, one would think they eventually would change something.

I mean the guy had direct business with Google going on....

Why would they continue like that. Isn't there one single PR person at Google?

Monkey

Doesn't mean they like it

Cron maybe?

Windows 10 has themes now too

But if the data isn't even used for the ads... Why do they collect them at all? I thought this was the only reason for businesses to collect data in the first place

That just sounds like proper opsec

Can confirm. So many people asked him to write a hardening guide he just ended up doing it.

> I just don't like the idea of a flying high def camera in my face that I can't grab and smash against the wall.

How is CCTV that much different? Or people with cameras?

Do you have any sources on those? I was unaware as of yet

Except everyone already does all the time?
