Why do they have dns records around copilot and openai then?

When looking at this I became suspicious because Deepseek has/had dns records referencing openai and co-pilot. Then I got their chat to tell me what their model is based off of and it said ChatGPT. Hope my own bluesky account is okay for screenshots:

You have no idea, it is your opinion and employee counts don't mean anything there as you don't know what their org looks like or what their productivity looks like. You keep stating things as fact without any real knowledge. You have no real evidence to back up your claim of "fact" and I don't wish to argue with you. I hope you progress and learn how arrogant you are here with your claim of fact and change your attitude in the future and to give people the benefit of the doubt. Best of luck to you.

It's not a fact, it is your opinion and you should really learn the difference.

* Android version was last updated April 10 2024.

* iOS has had some issues, I actually had to remove myself from the TestFlight due to a bug but it is actively being worked on (the beta version). I'm assuming they are waiting on the iOS beta to be stable before another release but I'm not part of the team.

* Proton Drive for Mac was last updated March 29th.

Just because a team is having an issue with one piece of their software doesn't mean it's abandoned or unsupported. Again, there is a lot of hyperbole here.

I'm not sure why you think this just because they don't support Linux yet. They have a few core key products such as Mail, Calendar, Drive, VPN and Pass. All of these are great for a Google Workspace convert. Adding Notes to that makes perfect sense as I want my Notes secured end to end and as a Voyager subscriber I'm really happy they are going down this path and it seems right in their wheelhouse.

To address your Proton Drive comment directly, they are a small team and they are rolling out Web, iOS, Android, Windows and Mac. The most common platforms today which is what they should focus on. Android already has photo backup, iOS it's in beta. They are continually having new releases for all of these products and you can see that on /r/ProtonDrive. Saying they have abandoned these products or don't care about them is hyperbole. Is it taking longer than I would like, sure, do I want them to release a Public API for Drive (for rclone) and a Linux client, absolutely but lets give teams the benefit of the doubt.

I'm not sure the logic, since you have problems everyone else must have them too? Google DNS / Cloudflare DNS are both DNSSEC validating revolvers, two of the most popular DNS services on the planet. Most US based ISP resolvers are DNSSEC validating (Xfinity's 75.75.75.75 is). Google Chrome ships with DOH going to Google DNS on by default now, Firefox does DOH by default as well.

So I can absolutely see where this would easily be the case, if not more.

You can view a map of DNSSEC validation rates here: https://stats.labs.apnic.net/dnssec

Just remember, local external drives can still burn up in fires or drown in floods. I thought about this recently a lot and went with a Synology where I can have all of my data locally but backup that data to B2 (Backblaze) automatically.

Backblaze, Google Photos, iCloud, Dropbox, Onedrive or buy a Synology and use Synology Photos and then backup to one of them.

I just went through this so I can well you B&H and Microcenter both did well for me. I actually had a failed drive from B&H (one of two) who took care of it and refunded my money. The best advice I can give though it order drives from different suppliers or batches so you don't get two from the same batch which can sometimes have a problem.

I'm cautious so I sync to Backblaze from my Synology as well as S3 with a lifecycle rule to Glacier. You could easily just do B2, C2 or S3 depending on your needs.

My guess would be vibration at the top of the rack which is why when you relocate them they do much better. This is such a great thing to call out explicitly with data.

There are some options:

Mega.io

Proton Drive

Rclone to your own encrypted bucket

Mountain Duck / Cloud Mounter to your own encrypted bucket

I would recommend Protonmail because you can also have a plan that allows you to use your own domain. The interface is much better than Google IMHO and the spam filtering is up there as well.

Other alternatives:

https://www.hey.com

https://www.skiff.com

https://www.fastmail.com

https://www.icloud.com with advanced protection turned on

1password can store passkeys for you and sync between multiple devices. Then I add a Yubikey Bio to add of these accounts as a backup.

sorry thats https://matano.dev

There are some players that are more established than others but check out:

https://panther.com - Built on top of Snowflake, so it scales well and they are building a more Splunk like interface.

https://runreveal.com - Still seed but shows a lot of promise

https://matando.dev - Still seed and don't have a hosted product yet but smart founders that have the right idea

https://hunters.ai - More threat hunting than SIEM but maybe that what certain folks need

https://gem.security - Still fairly early but if you are focused on cloud use cases this could be more of an option. (Disclaimer: I'm an Investor)

AWS, Dynadot or Porkbun are all great options.

Would love one for myself if you don't mind.

You are 100% correct.

The Drata agent does exactly what you are talking about with a lightweight osquery based read-only agent. Literally just monitors some system settings like screen lock timeout, av-install, updates, etc. We collect that data to then be able to show your auditor you are meeting your controls.
