Processor microcode is closed source (Intel/AMD), including most of the BIOS code. You are having hard time to build your devices. Maybe we can see change in the future.

That it is. I'm bit fancied of the ignorance of the people, until it is Apple who is doing it. And Apple is minority compared to other platforms. I haven't heard much of complains about Windows sending all your file hashes and mos

”Sorry, but collisions happen with all hashing algorithms, and you can’t prove otherwise. It is just a matter of time. Nothing to see here.”

We have come a long road to establish transparent protocols to run stuff on our browsers (HTML, JavaScript, CSS, JSON, HTTP protocol), yet we are going to towards compiled binary code, towards black-box schema. The users will have less powe

Based on the READMEs, functionality is quite identical on Firefox's build-in containers. Only difference which comes with these extensions is, that they work automatically for selected domains, instead of you manually opening the site

Perceptual hashing would make bit more sense. Flip one bit from the image to avoid detection otherwise.

Maybe you are not aware about technical details, but it is literally just sandbox, what you can use to any website regardless how it is named. Using Facebook as example is just marketing. In the recent Firefox versions, they are called only

They have been taking money from the Google, but I don’t think they have become as ”arm of the Google”, as you make it sound like that. Their promise was to not become like that. They are very little affected by Google after all. Monetizing

I guess the difference comes, when law requirement happens on EU only, not globally. So the question is, which is worse; not regulate at all or regulated only in one area. It bars access from some point of view, it might not exist if you do

I think this should not be related for OS tiers. Every user should have possibility to use different accounts on their computer, and to adjust permission levels of them and choose which one to connect to MS account. One could be sceptical t

Can someone explain, why it has end-to-end encryption by default on this level, and why it is good? Isn't this project more about host discovery and routing. Is it providing more performance compared to encryption on other layers, or j

Every additional mount can be considered as extra failure in design in terms of security or just being considered as laziness. Those all increase the attack vector. Even though containers are not designed in terms of isolation, every mount

You have bit confusion here. Android is based on Linux kernel, and changes on that is directly reflected to both Linux and Android users, it does not go to other direction. We will see if this code ends up on other use as well.
