I have no evidence that the burden of fixing the issue should fall on the developers or the packagers of vlc-plugins-freeworld.

It doesn't look too far fetched from their point of view, they saw a payment failure and they may have assumed that you decided to stop paying and didn't bother to send a cancellation request. It looks like you had your own backup

Close, the giant tech companies may or may not comply but they surely can afford the fines that the various EU Data Protection authorities dream into reality by twisting an ever-changing body of interpretation of ambiguously written rules.

The Roundcube plugin seems to implement a form of quick account switching, which isn't exactly what I'm after. Cypht looks more like it, and I've found that there's a paid version of AfterLogic Webmail [1] which claims t

I'm dreading the redesign, even though at the moment I have no idea of how it will look like. What webmail can one use to read and write mail for multiple accounts? I will need to have a sort of unified inbox for at least 5-6 accounts,

I haven't had any major issue with Firefox's UI lately, as long as they can let me show the menu bar. However, the scrollbars since v98 are a big issue, they no longer follow the system UI (I'm using KDE Plasma on Fedora) and

There's no way you can make that decision, which is why the simplest course of action, or the less risky one, is to treat any IP address as it actually conveyed PII, even 192.168.0.1.
44.
by quicksilver03 5y ago
IP addresses are PII when they can identify a person, and that's not always the case, e.g. a company network using NAT for outgoing connections so that dozens, if not hundreds of people appear from the same IP address.

At my last job I implemented the certificate generation as a scheduled job, which pushes the generated certificates to a private S3 bucket. Then, our standard Ansible playbooks set up on each node a weekly systemd timer which downloads the

I would tolerate the ICANN TLD money-grabbing scheme, but the "new" TLDs are a little more than an indication of bad taste. I can't be the only one to dislike anything more than 3 characters in a TLD, like .cloud or .engineer

And yet, GDPR considers IP address personal data. As long as there are stupid things written in laws and directives, we can expect the judicial branch issue stupid rulings.

Having loved Pascal and struggled with Modula 2, I'll go out on a limb and I'll say: for cosmetic and typing issues. Modula 2, at least in the implementation I had to use at my University, had case-sensitive keywords which were in

You can work around this by either setting a fake gateway in a static IP configuration, or configuring your DHCP server to give a fake gateway to requests coming from the TV's MAC address. By "fake gateway" I mean a non-exist

If you control DHCP and know the MAC address of those embedded devices, you can serve them a non-existing gateway so that they simply won't have a path outside of your home network. Of course, that assumes IPv4, whereas with IPv6 and S

I disagree, what they do to Apache, nginx and especially Exim is very invasive and doesn't bring any actual benefit. They even had to write a program to modify the Exim configuration after they made it impossible to do it by hand.

The blast radius of storing ssh keys in LDAP is very big, if your LDAP is down you cannot ssh into your servers anymore. To overcome this issue, you end up storing a set of public keys in the servers themselves, thereby going back to where
