One of the major shortcomings of this simple redaction method, and not mentioned in the article, is actually from a security point of view. This is less of an issue with Mueller report but was quite noticeable with Snowden leaks. If your re

You can’t do this on the domain name, or even subdomain. Changing origin requires actual navigation, and would probably trigger loop detection.

It seems rival agencies (Chinese, Russian) should be interested in doing the same, or at least denying NSA this capability. I mean adding some exit nodes is not exactly expensive, seems like a low hanging fruit, doesn’t it?

How is this private? You literally get a private IP directly tied to your AWS account, and by extension your CC. An actual attempt at privacy would involve chaining at least two VPNs and paying anonymously. Starts to look a lot like TOR, do

Assuming you’re using it to access websites or services with PoPs in US/EU then tunneling traffic via US/EU VPN would add negligible latency, actually would probably improve your latency overall.

If you have an argument to make then make it. The live stream was viewed meager 200 times. The logistical purpose of a live stream is that it’s hard to upload videos when you’re in a shoot out with police or dead. Perhaps you should blame

What has Facebook exactly “unleashed” upon the world? Facebook didn’t invent live streaming. You think someone determined won’t be able to do a one-off stream without Facebook? > In contrast, Facebook released their creation on the world

The video went “viral” because of news coverage. This idea that no one would have seen this video without Facebook is laughable. The only real “solutions” are the ones presented in parent post, that is total censorship beyond what even Chin

Sustainability should be whether or not you are going around hungry. Because if not, then why would you ever stop the diet, or even worse go back to the old habits? Why would it be surprising that you would then gain your weight back? And y

If you don’t like systemd so much then write something better. I mean you’ll find literally anything to dislike about it, I don’t get it. You can still use cron or rsyslog if you like. Or don’t use systemd. This is stupid. I’m done. The def

User launches voice chat, logs out, application stays around and listens on user/other users. Just one example. Having programs running despite being logged out is unintuitive and wrong. Most users do not know or care about going into

When they work, sure. And when they don’t the user is wondering why his laptop is playing sounds when she’s logged out. Systemd’s solution is the right one from technical POV. No need to hope applications cooperate when you can just ask the

> If this behavior was mandated by some other piece of software, it wouldn't be as widely adopted as systemd is. So your argument is that this is forced on people because of systemd’s political power? There’s a configuration option

What do you disagree with in that sentence? There are defaults, distros have defaults, they’re the subject of this discussion. Anyone arguing for any default is likely dictating the de facto behavior for majority of nontechnical users, wh

Then you can toggle one simple configuration switch, instead of forcing confusing behavior on the other 99% of users that don’t want or need it. Take a step back and consider if say Windows did it like that, wouldn’t you agree it is broken?

You watch porn, log out, but mpv is somehow stuck and still playing. Broken enough?

It’s a verb (to dogfood) so it would be dogfooded. More intuitive if you use it in continuous tense: “I am/have been dogfooding Foobar on my dog.” Also they really need to put a README on that live CD.

I wouldn’t say radically... If it’s the same engine then platform testing becomes a nice-to-have not essential.

It’s how it goes every single time. UK tried it with child pornography filters but it got a little too obvious.
