That works well until you get to sites that randomize the id/class/whatever of the element or automatically reinsert it once you kill it. At that point i usually look for a different site. Urgh. I wouldn't mind ads if the wer

For the same reason I don't go around and post an article how "watty" did $x. It doesn't matter if this is a pseudonym and what kind of avatar you use. If watty might be implicated in something illegal I should go talk t

He could have not posted the twitter handle but a hash instead? echo "The Twitter handle Brian Krebs anonymized in this blog post is..." | sha256sum There you go, you can prove it to anyone at any point in time.

So Krebs has no conclusive proof for anything? As he himself admits: > It is possible that Zu is instead a white hat security researcher or confidential informant Jeez, how about talking to the police and let them do their job, or at t

Eh, there will be community supported LD_LIBRARY_PATH wrappers, effectively making it run on "linux" even of they only support ubuntu. I'll take that over zero linux support anyday. Usually it's pretty easy to make these

No, assets are included in the byte count of these demos! Not sure what you mean by RemoteJS though. You aren't allowed to load more JS code from the web.

If any if the downvoters could elaborate why I'm wrong I'd appreciate that. I really don't know.

It's impossible to prove that these allegations were false. So there's no reputation to lose. The only ways i can think of to prove innocence (in general) are a) an alibi b) finding who actually did it. Both of these don't wo

It was in the repo I got the ffu2img script from, forgot to remove it, see https://github.com/t0x0/random Fixed now, thanks.

Thanks! Made a quick script with this to unpack the other stuff (I couldn't mount the ISO for some reason) however 7z seems to handle the ISO and the MSI file both just fine. In case you're interested: https://github.co

Quickly made an unpacker script in bash, couldn't test it yet, but it looks like it works. You'll need 7zip and a working installation of python, https://github.com/lawl/Win10IOTRaspberryUnpacker

If you watch a video on youtube today it's actually hosted on googlevideo.com or something (i know because uBlock). I assume they threw the youtube backend away when they bought it :) So in that sense google video is still alive, just

Seeing how a lot of browser/flash/java drivebys seem to come from ads, I also consider them good security practice these days. See for example the recent firefox exploit. https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2015

Or use the opportunity to kick flash off your system. I'm surfing without flash for probably 2 to 3 years now. These days it's really not a problem. Most sites work with html5 and those that don't have alernatives that do.

I get that. But I'm wondering, I've seen translate.google.com links reach the front page every once in a while. Which is fine if it so happens that it spits out a somewhat sane translation. This doesn't seem to be the case he

Just a quick note: Verratsdatenspeicherung (translated as mandatory data retention in your text) is a pun. Vorratsdatenspeicherung = data retention "in case we need it later" (Vorrat = stock, supply etc.) Verratsdatenspeicherung =

Reacting to backlash isn't an argument. Why would you (or anyone) downvote me for criticising things like integrating a social API[0] into the browser? If you feel like downvoting opinions you don't like, by all means go ahead, I&

It's sad how true this is. I still fondly remeber the days of Firefox 2.5. IMO the best browser ever. It feels like Mozilla is trying to shove more shit down my throat with every update. I'm by no means trying to defend Microsoft

Right because completely aborting would break things, who cares about security? This is just horrible and I honestly hope nobody will ever use this, I'm sorry.
