Just a guy trying to promote discourse, photography, freedom, good food, and reason.
Personal privacy is a passion of mine.
Is that a Firefox issue or Google making proprietary standards that only work with chromium based browsers?
I think Google is trying to be anti competitive. I have noticed similar issues when using Firefox with Google Docs.
Take a look at what a former Mozilla exec had to say on the issue: https://www.zdnet.com/article/former-mozilla-exec-google-has-sabotaged-firefox-for-years/
I really wish it had a 3.5mm audio jack. I don’t see what companies stand to earn, other than money, when they remove the headphone jack.
I can see why Apple and Samsung removed it because the they can market their own wireless headphones.
Removing the jack only removes capability, it is not like older phones didn’t have the capability to connect to Bluetooth headphones
This link is to the same article. Was there a reason for posting it?
It doesn’t make sense while if this data, that would usually require a warrant if not already being sold, is allowed to be collected by companies.
Companies may argue that users consent to this in the terms and conditions of when they start using the product but what about those users that aren’t a Google, Facebook or “insert tech corporation here” user? Those users never consented to data collection but their data is being collected just the same.
The issue is not the government buying this data. That is just a symptom of the root cause which is lack of consumer privacy laws.
I really enjoy Darknet Diaries. It is unfortunate he went to a once a month release cycle but I understand it is for a better work life cycle.
If you are a fan of Darknet Diaries I would also recommend Hacked. It has two hosts which have a good dynamic. Plus they don’t touch politics so it avoids any controversy.
What are you talking about?
Is it not possible for two different people to share similar opinions?
I’m glad you pointed this out. We need to move past the “this person said something I don’t agree with so I will never interact with them again”
Identity politics are bad and we should not be beholden to them.
People and their technical knowledge are more than their political views.
It’s crazy to see things like this and then also think about all the attacks and intrusions that aren’t caught and are still ongoing.
The vulnerability with Moveit is just one vulnerability and there are certainly many others that we don’t know about.
Just goes to show you that just because you aren’t hearing about intrusions, doesn’t mean they aren’t ongoing.
Emotional responses don’t lead to any solutions. Only reason will create a peaceful two state solution.
