What does it say about these products if Google thinks they can't be made to respect privacy laws in the EU and Canada?

Instead of blaming regulators, maybe the industry is seriously dysfunctional?

This is like a car manufacturer claiming that it's impossible for them to make a car with seat belts and a catalytic converter and opting instead not to sell cars in many of the largest markets in the world

That co would obviously and unquestionably be dysfunctional and in terminal decline

Twitter’s encrypted DM feature is technically flawed, opt-in, limited to 1-to-1 text-based messages, restricted to a small user base, and generally inferior in just about every way to encrypted apps like Signal and WhatsApp.

And all for just $8 a month. https://www.wired.com/story/twitter-encrypted-dm-signal-whatsapp/

It turns out you can simply serve a file from a domain to use it as your bsky handle.

So this guy is now S3. All of S3.

DOJ actually detected the SolarWinds hack in its network back in May 2020 and Microsoft, Mandiant, SolarWinds all looked at it at the time, but didn't grasp what they were seeing. Six months later Mandiant publicly exposed the campaign. @kimzetter back in WIRED! https://www.wired.com/story/solarwinds-hack-public-disclosure/

Here, I made you a Slack emoji for when you're talking about GenAI

back in January of 2016, we started getting reports on WordPress.com that people were publishing blog posts and the letter F was going missing. they initially thought it was a typo, but when they'd edit the post, the words would be spelled right in the post editor. but on the live site? no Fs

sounds like user error, right? but the reports kept coming in. and it wasn't just missing, sometimes it was switched, like the word "first" would become "ifrst". if you know anything about fonts maybe you can guess what was up...

Why do people remove it? Because NVD has exaggerated a curl security flaw to an inflated level, and now "security scanners" insist that the bundled curl executable has a "high severity" security flaw and scaremongers people into removing it.

And then they realize Windows update refuses to work.

Are we sure this is the best we can do?

A darknet market vendor was let go after a raid in his house while he was logged into Tor and into a marketplace, cause the police ejected the USB that was running the OS and the whole drive was wiped off :))

Today is the 30th anniversary of the announcement of the Clipper Chip, an ultimately failed proposal for "key escrow" cryptography that ignited the "crypto wars" of the 1990's.

I finished reading World Wide Waste by Gerry McGovern. I'd consider it essential reading for anyone working with computers!

https://gerrymcgovern.com/books/world-wide-waste/

It's well cited (though I still need to check those citations) & uses maths effectively to make it's point.

That computers + (surveillance) capitalism is actually worse for the environment than the predigital era. That we can and must move slow and fix things, and fund that vital work directly.

Don't get me wrong, computers can absolutely help us regain our environmental efficiency. They just *aren't*.

Not as long as we're:
* constantly syncing everything to the cloud,
* expecting same-hour delivery,
* funding our clickbait via surveillance advertising,
* buying a new phone every year,
* using AIs because they're cool rather than useful,
* running bloated software & webpages,
* buying into "big data"
* etc

Computing is environmentally cheap, but it rapidly adds up!

Somewhere, someone finally made this and I think it's beautiful
