On one hand I respect the right to free speech and people doing whatever they want... but man, this is awful. They’re doing more harm to their brand by publishing this.

It would be better if they just linked to Unsplash.

Maybe millennials are just more efficient at spending the little money they have and don't want to spend more than they need to, which coupled with the new business models the Internet & recent technologies allow makes some legacy

In this day and age I would've expected any non-secured printer to be flooded by spam on a continuous basis, to the point where they have to be secured if you don't want them to run out of paper printing spam every single day. I

I am really surprised these kinds of printer "hacks" are still possible in 2018 .

First of all I would consider it very unethical to steal your client's idea/project or try to extort money from them just because you believe their idea has potential. You are hired to write code. Bill them for the time & effo

From my experience people who lack basic computer skills don't have them because they don't want them and trying to teach them would be a waste of time. I've noticed this with my own parents and even some friends (who use a

No enterprise would use the factory image, but a lot of small businesses would and they were put at risk as a result. We can of course say they shouldn't have trusted it, but honestly, should it be normal to expect the manufacturer

I think it’s still a worthwhile trade off. The percentage of people using network inspection for “good” like malware/phishing filtering is much lower than the percentage using it for bad stuff like ad/cancer tracking.

Technologically this was possible a decade ago or more. This was an issue with mindset (the old banks don’t want to invest in user experience) and the huge barrier to enter the banking market.

> worse if the CNIL is warned or if someone steal the zip This is the reason why you should report it immediately. It is no longer about your relationship with the CIO. At this point the company itself is at risk and that takes priority.

I find it ironic that these employees complain about an unethical search-engine project but have no issues stalking & violating the privacy of billions of people across the world.

Provider switching can be done directly at the SIM level; the phone just sees it as if you’ve swapped your SIM. I’ve used such a SIM for ages on an iPhone and no issues what so ever so I expect them to use the same method.

Sidenote: does anyone know why all these cancer scripts use this approach of using an initial Javascript payload to create a `script` tag, instead of just being a `script` tag directly?

It's a lot slower so I assume so. It's definitely not a Safari View Controller.

True, but at least you can begin with making sure trusted privacy settings (the ones provided by your OS) are set correctly. You can also not install their app and use their website in a browser with an ad blocker and in private browsing

I can confirm. I have very specific interests on YouTube (old cars, etc) that wouldn’t normally appear in the clickbait bucket aka homepage. When I opened YouTube on my friend’s computer connected to my WiFi (absolutely no way she’d get my

It’s strange because I’ve used my primary address on LinkedIn for a year; it’s displayed publicly on my profile and I have yet to receive spam. I only get a handful of legitimate recruiter messages a month but nothing else.

Despite all of this bullshit, LinkedIn can be a good tool for finding opportunities if used correctly. You just need to make sure your privacy settings are bulletproof and don’t give out more information than they need to.

First thing I do when I click on a link on LinkedIn is to open the context/share menu and press “open in Safari”. Hopefully if enough people do this it will make it clear in their analytics that nobody wants their shitty knockoff brows

Offer free copies to review websites, bloggers, on Reddit, etc and ask them for honest reviews of the game. It’s a win-win situation; they get a free game and you get feedback and more awareness about your game. Don’t use ads; if you have t

Safari is pretty good, and while it's not open-source, it's from a company that so far has proven to be respectful of privacy.

You know the EMV specification is open and anyone could write software to check a PIN using a standard smartcard reader (10$ on Amazon), right?

Here's a product idea. A service that would automatically screen-scrape any URL of a blog (using heuristics and/or machine learning to figure out the layout and where the posts are) and then outputs an RSS feed.

How would you deal with spam? Who's paying for this?
