What prevents NSA from requesting Cloudflare, under the table, put a false message?

If I owned Cloudflare, I wouldn't mind lying to my customers if it was related to the national security or if it gave me some kind of unfair advantage or special treatment against my competitors.

From wikipedia:

Seasonal affective disorder is a mood disorder subset in which people who have normal mental health throughout most of the year exhibit depressive symptoms at the same time each year, most commonly in the winter.

I usually get depressed in the summer though, even when I get enough unfiltered sunlight.

Can't wait to try it and read articles comparing its features with IDA, Binary Ninja, radare2 or Hopper. Sounds really interesting!

I hope vendors like DigitalOcean would provide more fine tuned access controls in their APIs.

Certbot, which I have setup to automatically renew my wildcard Let's Encrypt certificates, has access to my master API key on DO. I try to follow the best practices in keeping it safe, but I'd prefer if that specific API key would only have the required privileges to modify a set of specifically named TXT records and nothing more.

Why don't they analyze the data themselves instead of sending such personal information to FaceBook?!

If they don't have the available resources/capabilities to build or self host an analytics platform, do they really need that data analyzed?

Have their users explicitly allowed them to send such data to Facebook? Why not use a company that has a better record in respecting peoples' privacy. No wonder why things like GDPR exist!

DNS is required for wildcard domains.

To issue a certificate for a specific subdomain, you just need to have an http server and serve the secret under the .well-known directory.

It's a huge step forward. Does it block Google Ads too?

If so, ad companies should consider some kind of functionality to proxy the advertisements through the partners' websites.

I've seen ublock struggle with Server Side Ads Injection.

All these new transforming devices remind me of my old Nokia N90. Due to their initial cost, way too few people had one and the ecosystem was lacking.

This one is way too expensive for me but I really appreciate the form factor and the technology innovation surrounding it. I'd love to see someone like JerryRigEverything [1] stress test and disassemble it.

I wonder how much Xiaomi's foldable equivalent will cost, which has no visible hinges.

I have enabled the resistFingerprinting in my firefox about:config settings and this technique no longer seems to work on me.

The only downside is that verifying ReCaptcha takes me around a minute to solve.

I also have the link buried under an equivalent named 'h4x0r later' folder in my bookmarks since 2015. There are so many interesting things I'll never manage to play with in my lifetime, that I apparently have "postponed".

It's great others document and share their entertaining results to lazy lads like me :)

People complained when the Touch Toolbar replaced the Function keys row. Now it looks like Apple plans to replace the whole keyboard.

Haptic feedback sounds nice, but the invisible "buttons" and bumps will always remain at the same positions. Reprogramming these keys and their backgrounds might be useful in some applications, but the hardware layout wouldn't be very configurable.

The next iteration of this design would be to mechanically even out the keyboard layout bumps, whenever the keyboard or a specific key isn't in use.

Whenever I browse with the TOR browser, it's been 100% impossible for me to verify myself as a human even if all my answers are correct. I think they need to fix this bug, or at least give a message that the CAPTCHA won't be solved so we no longer waste our time.

Their No CAPTCHA's are very rare for me when I'm browsing logged in to my personal google account under the same session, on a normal browser.

They can be confident I'm not some kind of a bot, yet they still require me to solve on average two different tests to train their "AI".
