But why do you think any justification is needed in the first place? It's basically the same law as in many other countries. The only difference is that citizens of most other countries don't dare to do these tricks, because there

A very objective article, actually, and goes well to explain how this request to block the "voting app" isn't at all as controversial as portrayed in the Western MSM: > Second, this particular demand of the Russian authori

It's right there in Ankura's report in the PDF. Ankura reports that DomainTools reports the First Seen for the FQDN — with the exact same IP address throughout — as early as 2010-07-02. If you don't believe Ankura, just purc

That log of 10 IP addresses accounting for 100% of DNS requests over a period of 4.5 months (from Krebs) is complete BS. The domain name in question was publicly known — records available in DomainTools per Ankura report. There's way

DNS queries are rarely logged. Ankara reports that the use of the domains in question is consistent with marketing campaigns in the hospitality industry. I'm still confused where the original DNS lookup dataset came from and why is it

It's a PDF document produced by Ankura Consulting Group. I didn't read it, but it's extremely trivial to generate outgoing DNS traffic from many networks with their own mail and DNS infrastructure (i.e., any big bank that has

It's a pretty common and standard practice for the mail servers to check that the domain specified in the MAIL FROM command of SMTP does exist. If it doesn't, the mail is immediately rejected at the SMTP level. This check goes thr

Isn't slow charging actually better for the phone? I prefer to slow change even if the phone supports fast charging — I wish it was easier to do by having a setting instead of having to use incompatible charger and/or cable. The s

Before Covid, every booth at every trade show would give you a free wall charger. Some of them were just 1-port 1A 5W throwaway, but also some better stuff, too. I can't imagine buying a charger together with the phone is a thing. You

But this all started over a year ago when he wasn't supposed to have been in power yet, why was nothing done in that time? Why always blame a specific party if neither one does any action to effect change?

Yeah, if you could just have VPs who know how things work, that would be great!

What I don't understand is how all of that MSM and Big Tech aid is not considered to be an in-kind donation to the campaign of a single party. Don't we have campaign finance laws?

Did you not bother to look at the facts of the case? I don't play games on iOS, I don't even develop on iOS, either. I do use both iOS and Android as a consumer, and I'm totally team Tim Sweeney on this one, even though I als

Chances are it is the version they're using themselves, too. Proprietary software is often way worse than any of the OSS projects.

They've already tried this with Firefox Focus on mobile. It was the silliest idea ever. The whole point of Firefox is that it provides an alternative. What sort of alternative would it be if it's the same as Chrome?

This is why noone should ever have adopted things like Let's Encrypt for their blogs and random portfolio websites in the first place. Especially not with disabling regular HTTP access. Will this be a wake-up call for everyone? Highl

Test in prod FTW! However, how do you test the saturation point when dealing with production traffic? Won't you have to run your resources underprovisioned in order to achieve saturation? Doesn't that degrade the quality of servic

Google used to do DNS-based filtering of IPv6. ipv6.google.com works on my side, as does www.google.com over IPv6 just fine, too. I just checked all the FAANG websites, and it appears that www.amazon.com is the only one that doesn't ha

You don't have to use really long IPv6 addresses. If you get a /48, you can leave all the rest of the bits zeroed out, and they'll be shown as "::" in the notation; then your whole address is just a triplet like X:

It makes even less sense when you consider that all these i3/i5/i7/whatever designations are just marketing ploys that don't actually mean anything. I have a number of computers with Intel processors of varying generatio

When you start with a premise that all sites MUST have HTTPS and MUST NOT support TLSv1.0 in each argument, then your arguments are simply unsound, because they're based on an incorrect premise, so, the conclusion couldn't possibl

> Even if all you want is plain HTTP, when HTTPS breaks it's mostly the fault of the device, and the product is still experiencing planned obsolescence caused by the manufacturer. "Mostly"?! That's quite a stretch!
