That shouldn't fly with ECHR. Oh, wait... But it's very practical to deal with uncomfortable dissent.

I thought of this. But the OP stated that the traffic is unprotected making this security measure moot.

I still don't understand it, TCP/IP doesn't transmit MAC addresses. Your knowledge of it ends at the next router... Therefore you definitely can't authenticate/authorize by MAC address.

Revoke JavaScript permission. That's what I do (in case I ever allowed it).

But Google gets your request nonetheless. Which I'd like to avoid.

Unfortunately, I didn't get timeshift to work to do a remote backup (via ssh). As I wanted automated backups especially for the home dirs I use backintime which also offers the features of rsync. I use timeshift for regular manual syst

But more enforcement. GDPR enforcement has been disappointing so far.

I've been imprecise, sorry. What I meant: how lead chargebacks to a credit card to a negative Schufa entry? I've never heard of this.

Meeting a confidential source and carrying a smart phone with you is somewhat contradictory. I'd think leaving the phone would be advisable OpSec.

Charge back for a credit card? That's the first time I hear of this. Do you have citations for this?

A German chain for electric goods (Saturn) switched to a global queue recently (the first person in the queue gets called to the next available register). I find it a much better customer experience.

How do you secure the private key?

I never would trust Google to increase my privacy.

If I want privacy from an extension, I don't install it. I can't do that realistically with a website as I need to visit it to determine whether it violates my privacy. Running an extension is running code I trust (mostly). Visiti

It would probably be interesting to compare average and median income for these cities.

>Even basic arithmetic operations, e.g. the average of two integers, is unreasonably hard with signed arithmetic. What do you have in mind? I understand that the addition can overflow, but that can happen with unsigned as well.

As I said, that's poor management. You will loose to an enemy who does it properly. The US was once envied for their officers training and education. Edited to add: Also, what will people do? They will drink less than they should to av

I was more shocked of the pee-filled bottles on the bridge. This hints to deep cultural problems being present and an utterly incompetent upper management.

Why not Ubuntu or Mint? These generally work out-of-the-box.

If you use grub, it's easy to switch to the previous one.

I've got it to work on hardware I bought previously. No problems on an older Dell laptop, some hassles on a PC with two AMD graphic cards. Linux comes with strings attached. On the other hand I had to deal with Win7 issues as well (suc

NSL's obtain data legally, whereas other methods are illegal (at least in most countries), and surely not well received when detected. In the latter case the hole will be closed. For me legality matters as well.

That's not longer the case in Germany (don't know whether this is the case in other EU countries though) where it requires a verified account with Paysafe (PostIdent no less).

>Something else is the article seems to concede that he did discover the wave nature of X-rays by deflecting them with a "charged electric field", which I assure you is total nonsense... That left me puzzled as well (IAAP).

This doesn't imply GA, sending data to a third party (and one of the worst offenders with respect to privacy at that). The same can be achieved solely by first party means. It's just not that convenient.

I understand legacy. The only wish I have is to tell Excel to honour the RFC (it's not that Excel isn't developed any longer). Just a checkbox (or whatever). I am using the Apache CSV library to parse csv. Content coming from Exce

Open a csv file in Excel, edit it and save (the latter is locale dependent). The result is horrible. I maintain a tool which offers csv import and export of data and we have regularly bug reports from users when they use excel to use it (Ex
