Ah, yes delinquency, there's that umbrella term we were looking for.

The rationale is that 2FA was being abused by some telcos with sockpuppets at a net cost of (ostensibly) some 50+Million a year for twitter.

If that's true, and because it's the least secure MFA option, I don't see it being that difficult or controversial of a decision.

I also do enjoy that this is listed as an 800% increase, not really how 0->$8 works.

We call that trauma an anecdote, that's orthogonal to whether modern American culture is conducive to children roaming. Anecdotally I also grew up in the 90s and I wonder how playing cops n robbers feeling 100% safe before curfew shaped me, my kid never will. We had cars as well but I don't have the equivalent to your story re: fast traffic;save that we had it nearby as well and roamed far with parents telling us to avoid it.

Anyway, sorry for the injury and the carelessness.

My perspective is that we went from trains being novel and a radio unheard of to handing toddlers iPads in a few centuries. Biology doesn't evolve that fast. It makes me wonder what an alien looking in would consider closer to child abuse given your comment. Unfettered iPad access or teaching a kid fast cars and roads are dangerous so going outside is bad.

He has shown time and again that his backbone's strength depends on how loud the public noise is. Kiwifarms most recently. You can dislike them(kiwifarms etc) and there is a case for them to be taken offline imo, but it is the governments job.

Exactly what you do _not_ want protecting the neutral internet. They've done better being neutral than some might have, but that's in reality more insidious because clearly there are points they will bend on and those points will change over time and almost certainly continue to erode.

It's nothing in isolation of your single act. Maybe. In aggregate it of course deprecates the library(they have e-checkouts already but you're talking untracked piracy). I like libraries; I think they're mostly performative in small towns and providing social services in cities rather than functioning as actual libraries. Kinda sad.

I pirate all my books btw, just saying if everyone did it ofc there'd be(already is) impact. Easily smartphones+kindle is worse though.

It's in the article, the revoked approvals were not for 'fake' certificates, they were for valid certs from Chinese Bay Area Compliance Laboratories(BACL) offices.

It's unclear the cause of this, one might infer it was US pressure to adhere to the agreement after finding non-compliance, alternatively it could be internally originated investigation.

I think this is a terrible choice and wish they would explain why the decision was made.

Was it something that amazon imposed(ostensibly)? If so, please share.

Depends on your definition of a heater, certainly there's no separate heating module but here's[0] a SpaceX team member saying it has 'self heating capabilities' in their reddit ama.

Mailservers are just as much in the public view as they have been historically to be honest.

If IMAP is viewed as nostalgia install postfix/dovecot on something and play around.

Yes, they can; regardless of your resolver they can collect that if you're not using DNSec.

Same goes for https handshakes leaking your target domain(otherwise SNI wouldn't work), so DNSSec alone is fairly pointless for regular web traffic obfuscation; and of course the IP is in each TCP frame regardless.

It becomes more a matter of are they doing it yet(re:DNS monitoring in this manner); with enough people using third party resolvers(I'd argue google's public DNS already has enough usage to warrant it) they will be.

Optimally you'd VPN at all times to a provider you trust or one you've setup yourself.

What it all really boils down to though is that the populace simply can't be trusted(nor should they need to be) to make themselves acceptably secure from third party monitoring. We need to have much more discussion around data privacy and retention for ISP's.

It's not a matter of if the data will be misused, it's truly a matter of when and it's not fair to the general public.

You're aware this is how the vast majority of email providers legacy operated right? (And sadly a few still do)

E.g. in this case likely a 2 point auth system (security question and e.g. payment details (last four of latest payment meth/etc))

Seems you're shocked that a lower tier support agent can auth this kind of request when the reality for most email hosts is that they can.

They(likely a new employee) got socialed.

Yes, they should have systems in place to prevent this from being possible in the first place; no, I do not find your incredulity genuine, albeit rational.

Perhaps the fact that they're human?

I interface with my local police at least once a month, not for recalcitrant reasons; they are good people.

Is this an anecdote? Yes.

Do I like seeing police as a whole cast as evil? No.

Yep, that is exactly it.

Infinite Jest is a look into the sick self-doubting mindset that has infected the US(and other parts of the world).

I read while I was severely over-weight and 'depressed' and it was extremely validating to see the mindset so accurately reflected. I've never had a book where I can't read it without stopping if desired before(unless it's purely technical).

I couldn't get through more than 50pages/sitting for Infinite Jest.

It was pretty good.

This is definitely not a clickbait title

That's subjectively defined so I'm not sure how you can be authoritative judge here.

I think it is clickbait, and I think the people here are pretty smart and completely understand why this is relevant given current events. (By relevant I do not mean accurate)

The bias and incompetence is getting old as well.

Your implication is that I haven't thought about it in depth. I have. I care a lot, about my community, the country and our world.

Wikileaks has a 100% accuracy rating(meaning they have not once pushed a falsified leak).

You showing other falsifications by other corrupt organizations isn't enough for me to throw away evidence as 'false' when there is no reason to do so. Again, if there was an individual falsification why wouldn't DNC officials call it out? Can you provide me a rational explanation.

In the context of a leak dropped a day before the election with no chance to fact check, sure, I could entertain the possibility there might be forgeries to control the election results.

Weeks ahead? What is stopping any forgeries from being called out? Where is _your_ proof these are false emails?

You have none, because there is none.

Yep, this.

This is not to mention that they aren't advocating 'free speech' like Alex Jones(not that I agree with him); they are actively fostering division and inciting violence between American citizens(using the mentally ill as their pawns) to manufacture outrage and promote a narrative.

I encourage anyone reading to watch the video, acknowledge it's biased and draw your own conclusions.

You can't edit words into someone's mouth.

Yes, the DNC wouldn't have called them out as fake immediately if they were... Come on.

Podesta himself admitted he got hacked and the password he emailed himself in plaintext worked for his other social media accounts.

That's not even close to equivalent.

Likely 46 is due to his IPv4 pool, hence waiting for the IP space assignment before scaling up.

It might not re-hide the documents, but it does send a message.

Very true, I am just worried, and clearly not thinking completely rationally.

I guess time will tell.

This particular 4channer posted this well before Assange's internet was cut.

We now have complete radio silence from for >12 hours and embassy employees are no longer allowed to talk about him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_jhLcvoZqc

He just says he doesn't know what he's doing, he's actually quite competent.

You can care about your countries politics and not support either primary candidate, or the political structures they represent.

Did I say or even imply you couldn't? No, I didnt. I was simply disagreeing that these candidates are the same.

I'll be voting for my interpretation of the "lesser evil" unapologetically.

I'm not 'wasting my life in the trenches', I'm an American citizen with an opinion. I respect your decision to vote third party or not at all, but please stop trying to shame me for "being evil" and voting how I see fit.

TYVM

Actually me saying they're not the same would be a statement of fact.

As an American, forgive me for actually caring about my countries politics.
