- Comment on Famous VPN company Mullvald says it will no longer use OpenVPN 1 week ago:
Not sure about that. I set up a wg vpn server on a system which then became unresponsive whenever wg was fully saturating the network. Turns out there is apparently no way to throttle or prioritize a wg server, the only way I could think of would be to dedicate a vm to solely the wg vpn and throttle that vm in its networking.
I instead switched to openvpn which can simply be throttled via a line in its configuration.Besides that missing feature, openvpn also doesn’t require figuring out the right iptables commands to verbatim paste into its config as startup and shutdown commands. Setting it up was way easier than wg (though openvpn too wasn’t exactly user-friendly).
WG to me seems too clunky and unfinished for more mainstream usage, though I am sure it wouldn’t be an issue for a large commercial user like mullvad that will have no issue with all that.

ImagePaperclips in your comments are a bit more annoying in comparison, also you’ll just forget them.
The newest rossmann video explains the idea more, but in short the goal is to get a feel for how large the movement is, not creating some slogan.

- Comment on Intel CPU Temperature Monitoring Driver For Linux Now Unmaintained After Layoffs 2 weeks ago:
States can control who companies do business with, and also who buys and sells them.
I’d be surprised if the US let any foreign actor buy Intel, and pretty sure specifically US chip companies (production, design, and IP) are barred from doing most kinds of business with China. - Comment on MD = oMega Dumbass 2 weeks ago:
While this may sound reasonable at first glance, it is only true most of the time. Sometimes a minute contains 59 or 61 seconds, even in Africa.

- Comment on EU age verification app to ban any Android system not licensed by Google 4 weeks ago:
That applies to play integrity, and a lot of getting that working is juggling various signatures and keys.
The suggestion above which I replied to was instead about software-managed keys, something handed to the app which it then stores, where the google drm is polled to get that sacred piece of data. Since this is present in the software, it can be plainly read by the user on rooted devices, which hardware-based keys cannot.Play integrity is hardware based, but the eu app is software based, merely polling googles hardware based stuff somewhere in the process.

- Comment on EU age verification app to ban any Android system not licensed by Google 4 weeks ago:
In the eu, phone numbers by law are tied to state identities.
And the phone provider can naturally resolve their sim IDs down to the phone number they are assigned to.
Anything related to celltower interactions is PII. - Comment on EU age verification app to ban any Android system not licensed by Google 4 weeks ago:
If it is about hiding some data handled by the app, that will be instantly extracted.
There are plenty of people with full integrity on rooted phones. It’s really annoying to set up and keep going, and requiring that would fuck over most rooted phone/custom os users, but someone to fully inspect and leak everything about the app will always be popping up. - Comment on Women Dating Safety App 'Tea' Breached, Users' IDs Posted to 4chan 5 weeks ago:

This issue here is very different to the xz backdoor.
The xz backdoor was well obfuscated, planned out, and inserted by another actor.This here is easy to notice, can reasonably be explained as a mistake, and can only benefit the og main devs of lemmy.
A “huh this is odd, also change yalls admin passwords” is appropriate here. Even if we got further indication it was malicious, it would still be far less crazy than the xz backdoor.

- Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink 2 months ago:
Yeah.
The maintenance of these conatellations is pricy, so perhaps if such an international program does prove itself trustworthy you’d see other national alternatives get retired.I mean it’s not like the US would do it anyway as things stand, more likely for such a program to get started independently and to end up outcompeting starlink down the line.
- Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink 2 months ago:
You want a truly multinational organization responsible for it, nothing that can be controlled by a single nation, even one as (ex)influential as the us.
Something based on the UN perhaps.Combine that with making internet access a human right, to stop denying connectivity outright.
Ideally then you could’t enforce meaningful censorship, but more realistically you would route regions to their respective governments servers so they could censor as before on their territory.
That would not guarantee free access to the internet to everyone, but should be an acceptable compromise to basically all nations.After that, other doubting nations could still pull their own constellation, nothing is stopping that.
I would love if the internet program was uncensored, but that probably needs personal circumvention same as now, if such a program wants any degree of success.
- Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink 2 months ago:
Starlink should not just be nationalized but internationalized.
It is internet for everyone on earth, not everyone in the USA.Every larger nation deploying their own constellation would be a pointless waste of resources, and every smaller nation having to find reliable partner-nations to tap into for that internet access would inevitably lead to people ending up without access due to political games.
Low orbit satellite constellations are the perfect candidate for sharing, they would literally sit unused over most of their orbits otherwise.
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 2 months ago:
Was about to say this.
I saw a small-time project using hashed phone numbers and emails a while ago, where assume stupidity instead of malice was a viable explanation.
In this case however, Plex is large enough and has to care about securiry enough that they either
did this on purpose to make it sound better, as a marketing move,
did not show this to their security experts,
or chose to ignore concerns by those experts and likely others (turning it into the first option basically)There is no option where someone did not either knowingly do or provoke this.
