So what is the case for most users? Are normal android phones getting compromised (in a way true 2FA would help) often enough it is an issue? I honestly haven’t seen any statistic regarding this and anecdotally I don’t know anyone whose internet banking was compromised. Whether on phone or desktop.
Yeah, I was the one mentioning QubesOS. Since I tried it and didn’t last a week because of how bad the user experience was. I am not a CIA spy, I am looking for a balance of security and usability and android is amazing at that. Sure, some things could be more secure. Sure, I can’t do some things because GrapheneOS can’t be rooted. But the balance is excellent. At least for me.
Well, yes. But then again, I would trust my GrapheneOS phone not getting compromised over 3 linux devices. MFA is not some ultimate solutions and it is a pain to use.
The security I am talking about has nothing to do with being locked down. Linux could easily implement the same, but it probably never will, because it requires a bit of central management and vision. And Linux really struggles with that.
I am not saying android is perfect, but too granular is also bad. I have better things to do then tweaking SELinux policies.
Not for me, no. I love the sandboxing and permissions of android (GrapheneOS). Honestly, desktop OSs should learn from it. Also, android is a lot easier to use, especially on small form factor devices.
Your phone has likely much better security for your banking apps than your computer, unless you run really niche setup like QubesOS.
Forget fired, they should face criminal charges as anyone else would if they pointed a gun on someone without a reason.
In legal terms, disparagement means any negative remarks regardless of truthfulness. It is usually used in cases where the statements are truthful or opinions.
Defamation or libel is used when it is not. Obviously, you can usually disparage anyone you want if it is the truth or opinion. However, you may sign a contract, usually as part of employment, that forbids you from disparaging someone, usually your employer. That is likely what happened here. If you signed such a contract, your statements being true does not help you.
Also note that no contract can stop you from reporting a crime to the authorities, in case you ever need to know that.
Again, yes and no. While you are right pretty much every larger website will use a cache server in some way (at least in form of a CDN), cache servers really don’t help you in any way for things like a customer canceling their subscription, which is what this post is about. That is all back-end work. Yes, those are probably those app specifics you mention but glossing over them misses the point why solving this is not as easy as enabling auto-scaleing.
That entirely depends on your application. What you described is one possible approach, that will only work in specific circumstances.
I am not sure what you are trying to say?
If your page is just static, e.g. no login, no interaction, everyone always sees the same thing then it scales easily. Scaling means you copy the site to more servers. Now imagine a user adds a comment. Now you need to add the comment to every copy of your site, so that everyone sees it regardless of which server they use. So a comment creates more work the more servers you use. And this is where scaling becomes a complex science, that you need to manually prepare for as a software developer. You need to figure out what data will be stored where and accessed how.
Came here to post pretty much this. Oh, an asshole advocating violence and calling empathy harmful is murdered? National tragedy. We have to do something. 13 presumably innocent people are murdered. Crickets.
Yeah, I thought it actually may be a rare Reddit W for 2 minutes, until I saw reddit admins will grant exceptions. So likely, mods that push reddits agendas will stay while the uncooperative ones will have to go.
keep something like this alive and happy
An AI, even AGI, does not have a concept of happiness as we understand it. The closest thing to happiness it would have is its fitness function. Fitness function is a piece of code that tells the AI what it’s goal is. E.g. for chess AI, it may be winning games. For corporate AI, it may be to make the share price go up. The danger is not that it will stop following it’s fitness function for some reason, that is more or less impossible. The danger of AI is it follows it too well. E.g. holding people at gun point to buy shares and therefore increase share price.
How can the company SENDING the takedown request be legally required to take anything down?! They have nothing to take down. If they could take it down themselves, why would they need to send a DMCA takedown request?!
Again, it’s not the companies complying with the takedowns we are complaining about. It’s the companies that automatically send takedowns, with no regard for whether the takedowns are legitimate. These companies are supposed to have a duty to verify their copyright claim is valid before sending a takedown. But no one is enforcing it, so they don’t do it. That is the biggest issue here. We need to punish companies and individuals for sending illegitimate takedown requests.
Yes. So? How is that relevant, if we are talking about companies automating the requests with no regards for their accuracy ruining the internet? Isn’t it a given?
Encrypted. Was a whole thing to recover the keys from a damaged board, only to find old videos and photos from previous dives.
Apparently they were streaming the video to the inside of the sub, so it wasn’t saved to that card.
