> you know nobody will prosecute the IDF Then why bother with the cover up at all? FWIW, to me what it looks like based on the very limited information we have, is initially the soldiers thought (for whatever reason, possibly unreasonabl

I think the only defense here would be if the soldiers came up with some reasonable explanation of why they thought the vehicles were hostile. Its kind of hard to imagine, especially with shooting the follow up vehicles, but motive seems li

I was alive at the time. While there were some protests, i dont recall them being all that significant, and many of the objecting voices seemed more concerned with the price tag rather than the human cost.

At some point its a game and needs to be fun to play. If you are directing a group of five units that might work but if you have 200 units on the field i think it breaks down and is less fun. > But then you (the player) shouldn't ha

Regardless, the intensity of blue (for that matter, all) light is going to be much lower after the sun sets.

by bawolff 8mo ago
When the sun goes down the amount of blue light goes down. Are you disputing that? Respectfully this feels like a crazy claim.

Which is irrelavent as that is not a requirement for it to be harrasment. I get that a call to action is a common feature of doxing and it wasn't present here, but its not a particularly common feature of harrasment outside of the cont

by bawolff 8mo ago
You can harass someone while discussing them in a positive light. And i don't just mean under colloquial definition, i mean under the legal definition of harrasment. In fact its fairly common for unwanted "positive" attention

You need that sort of thing (i.e. watermarking) when people are intentionally trying to hide who did it. In the archive.today case, it looks pretty automated. Surely just adding an html comment would be sufficient.

P2p is generally bad for this usecase. P2P generally only works for keeping popular content around (content gets dropped when the last peer that cares disconnects). If the content was popular it wouldnt need to be archived in the first plac

The fact is i cant have a discussion about a paywalled article without reading it. Archive.today is popular as a paywall bypass because nobody wants HN to devolve into debate based on a headline where nobody has rtfa.

Call it stalking or harrasment if you prefer. Regardless its rude (sometimes illegal) behaviour. That's no justification for using visitors to your site to do a DDOS. In the slang of reddit: ESH

I am kind of sympathetic to that view. In practise i do find most DoS vulns to be noise or at least fundamentally different from other security bugs because worst case you get attacked, have some downtime, and fix it. You dont have to worry
860.
by bawolff 8mo ago
The real problem is that we treat vulnerabilities as binary without nuance. Whether a security vulnerability is an issue depends on context. This comes up a lot for DoS (and especially ReDoS) as it is comparatively rare for it to be real, b

The objection is to this specific archieve service not archiving in general.

by bawolff 9mo ago
I think the implication in this specific context is that malicious people were exploiting the vuln in the wild prior to the fix being released

YT pushing videos can be annoying, but at the same time there is an element of human free will here. You can chose not to watch them.

In theory 8 hours of downtime should be fine for a CA. Obviously not ideal, but the pki system is not meant to be a live system.

Persinally i think people harp on news bias too much. I think the real problem is that they often dont put events in context, which leads people to misunderstand them. They report the what not the why, but most events don't just happen

The same way they did back in the day, where libraries still existed that allowed people to read newspapers for free. I kind of doubt that internet archive is really taking very much business away from them. Its a terrible UI to read the da
