Thought this was relevant in the context of Zuck’s recent comments where he said he regrets “censoring” information during covid. This helps demonstrate some of the considerations at play here for his own future depending on the outcome of

I heard an interview with the guy who actually smuggled him out a while ago, he was an ex special forces soldier who ended up getting caught hand did a bunch of time for it. It’s a pretty crazy story. He certainly wasn’t the same person aft

He literally set a new record for how many different countries he gave access to when asked to do so. You’re living in a fantasy land

What are you talking about? No it doesn’t. The difference here is that when other platforms are informed about child porn they do something about removing it. Nothing to do with politics at all, just a weird fantasy you’re choosing to belie

I was specifically referring to a scenario where you have a device captured with these binaries on it just to be clear. At that point your day probably becomes a lot worse depending on who finds it and why they want to talk with you about i

Are you just ignoring all the child porn on purpose or what’s going on here?

Please take a deep breath and don’t get caught up in spiraling into some weird doom loop. He got done on child porn charges amongst other things. Nobody is coming for your GitHub account

This is truly some of the most paranoid nonsense I’ve read on here in the past two days and that’s really saying something.

Notably they didn’t run perhaps the worlds most popular child porn distribution network at the same time and didn’t have it all over their devices.

Respectfully what the hell are you talking about? They made a claim that Telegram are particularly unresponsive to legitimate requests from various law enforcement groups which as a statement goes isn’t particularly controversial. You seeme

Why is it that op can’t make the claim but you magically can? How does that work?

You aren’t wrong for the most part. HN hive mind has a really bad habit of consistently acting incredibly paranoid while actually doing nothing to actually understand how any of this works either from a legal or technical perspective and th

Couple of quick thoughts here. 1. Cool project, this space always felt rather empty after the mysterious ending of TrueCrypt. 2. This was made as part of a Swiss Government tech lab’s program and requires you to install kernel drivers that

I don’t know what anyone is supposed to assume from one story from over a decade ago. I’m just saying to slow down and wait for details to come out. This thread is turning into a paranoid fever dream based on nothing as far as I can tell.

You seem to be rather confused about the current thinking and capabilities of criminal groups. Requiring a phone number most certainly isn’t some fool proof method in the way you are claiming.

A French citizen running a service in France is going to be subject to French laws and can expect to be arrested when they step into the country of France if they have charges pending. This isn’t some grand conspiracy theory.

Do you have any proof of this whatsoever or are you just making this up?

Maybe just wait a moment for things to come out through the natural course of justice rather than getting yourself all worked up here. The accusations are serious enough that it’s probably reasonable to assume that they have some serious ev

There is also something to be said for being a developer in an ecosystem that is actively hostile towards you and your interests as a software developer. It looks a lot like Stockholm syndrome from the outside at least. But I genuinely don’

You seem to be invested in this topic in a weird and unhealthy way but there is nothing of value here in this comment. You baselessly accuse journalists of straight up making things up and then go on to give some anecdotal evidence that con

I’d like to see an explanation of how that is even possible to get that level of targeting without knowing the connection details of either Elon or Trump. The rest of the attack surface is surely shared infrastructure with the rest of the w
