This alone doen’t make you a Nazi, but that’s still a terrible course of action.

A wise man once said…

The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.

Calling out Musk and his actions, and avoiding the company that he owns and control, are the least one can do given all the trouble he’s causing, or trying to cause.

Several companies sell electric vehicles, and unlike Tesla, most aren’t owned by a Nazi (sympathiser).

Meanwhile in the EU: TikTok, five other Chinese firms hit by EU privacy complaints

He shoudn’t send DanSupp a cheque directly, but help him setup a non-profit or foundation for Pixelfed, then give that foundation a cheque.

Dan is doing a good job developing Pixelfed, but it looks like a one-man show, and that’s a bottleneck for the project.

No source is visible in the post. I don’t know if that’s an issue with my client, or an oversight.

Privacy Badger focus on blocking trackers. uBlock origin blocks all kind of things Ads,Trackers,etc and so it have a higher risk of breaking sites.

Yes, they’re mostly redundant. Happy uBlock Origin users should probably keep using just uBlock. People who don’t use uBlock to avoid breaking websites, or just want to block trackers, should use Privacy Badger.

I strongly recommended installing EFF’s Privacy Badger on your and your relatives browsers.

This stops many trackers, and causes less side effects and less breakages than most filters (unlock et all).

A planned lecture at China’s Nankai University was abruptly cancelled in January, reportedly due to “scheduling conflicts.”

Is he scheduled to visit a “reeducation” camp?

Japan’s JPCERT released IOCs for MirrorFace malware earlier https://blogs.jpcert.or.jp/en/2024/07/mirrorface-attack-against-japanese-organisations.html

Kudos to them. Sharing IOCs and samples with other CERTs and vendors is important to protect others who may be targeted.

I’m starting to think using fossil fuel, and having a strong dependency on other countries for energy supply, may not be a good idea after all.

He said there was no risk of Slovakia itself suffering from gas shortages, as it had already made alternative arrangements.

This isn’t about Slovakia’s own gas supply. The article give some hints regarding Fico’s motivations.

This might also apply to many news article for software vulnerabilities.

If it’s not a 0day, a patch is already available. So users shouldn’t do anything particular if there’s (semi)automatic update, which is the case for Win, iOS, and many Linux distributions.

It’s worth people’s attention if it’s a critical 0day where user need to mitigate manually, or if users need to update manually due to lack of auto update.

You should know when and how you are being tracked, and you should have an easy-button to say thanks, but no thanks.

Opt-out!? That’s not even close to being a good solution.

Your data should not be collected, and you should not be tracked, UNLESS you agree yo it, ie opt-in, AND data collection is proportional/appropriate for the stated goal.

That’s the spirit of GDPR.

You’re probably being sarcastic, but I can’t help it and have to say it: “traditional values” are obviously not a solution to this epidemy. The solution include more prevention and testing.

No one deserve to get infected, not even one’s worse enemy. This is contagious and will also harm neighbouring countries.

It’s going to make even more nurses run away, when many places are lacking nurses.

In addition to not connecting stuff unnecessarily, connected devices that consume/produce lots of power need safeguards.

Like a random 0-60sec timer for remote power on/off operations. 50000 panels powering down over 60sec is easier to handle than if they do that simultaneously.

Temu sure wish they didn’t, but they do in fact need to adhere to local laws in juridictions where they’re doing business.

There already are complaints against Temu for noncompliance to EU regulation. For instance https://www.beuc.eu/sites/default/files/publications/BEUC-X-2024-046_Temu_Why_the_fast-growing_online_marketplace_fails_to_comply_with_the_DSA.pdf

It may be trickier to enforce law against Temu vs a more classic and direct seller of goods, so it may take more time, and it may become a game of whack a mole, but there will be some enforcement.

If not the chineese manufacturer, then whoever is importing them .
