Are you able to view YouTube at all with NoScript enabled ? When I tried it out last the page itself doesn’t load because everything is JS based.

Any particular resources that you trust to share proper information?

To get governments interested in it… for tracking it’s own netizens… because just about everyone is dealing with CSAM!

IMO OverTheWire isn’t just a great (gamified) way of learning Linux, but also a good start in Linux security, and CTFs.

I have hopped around using VMs in the past, however this year my HDD was dying (bad sectors after about 8-ish years of use), so got an SSD and decided to install Linux instead of cloning my Windows 10 Pro.

I tried going on Debian 11 testing, but there was some issue with the installer displaying any text (as you can imagine this makes it almost impossible to install the OS…) So I hopped to Fedora for a bit -till it broke while I was trying to figure out how to run Windows games, and then to PopOS.

I’m wondering to go to Debian 12 Testing, but need to figure out how I want to partition my SSD otherwise I am currently having to keep erasing everything which of course means I am having to copy data after each new install. This will work till such time that my HDD is alive.

Any suggestions?

I like the phrase “Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely”.

KOSA is not the only thing one should be worried about, illiterates from UK are bringing in an Online Safety Bill which needs all services with encryption to provide a backdoor for the UK government under the reasoning of “monitoring for CSAM content”.

This doesn’t just impact UK citizens, but will do for the world.

If I recall correctly, Australia did something similar.

Interesting to see how the 5-eyes try to push similar dumb ideas together.

I see, but how is this different in a phone app? Wouldn’t the request still be made to a backend?

Uhh… not clear on what you’re claiming here… you can validate the traffic is going to the expected instance using a web app, without requiring any special software by running Developer tools and heading to the network tab.

Probably because of MS’s stranglehold on so many customers with their O365 and standalone Office suite ?

Over here we consider Broadcom is where things go to die a slow death. There should be some form of rule if a company is not actively working on their products / retiring them then they need to make it freely accessible to the public.

Probably as a result of this: https://youtu.be/B5d_MPw1nQs ?

Regarding the undemocratic part, let’s not forget it was a part of the Axis. Ideologies of leadership don’t change so easily…
