I haven't dug into these, so apologies for the naive question, but for a multi-tenant service like WordPress.com, can you effectively limit which WordPress blogs can WebMention you? If the allowlist is formed on the domain, this seems

So self-hosting refers to hosting the hardware, not the software? Does a colocated dedi count?

I think we might have a fundamental disagreement that we'll have to agree to disagree on. From a brief search, Facebook and Google are responsible for ~60-80% or more of digital advertising spend. This is because of their data-driven a

I think the document you really want to look at is this one, which is the actual regulation the DMA is operating under: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2022/1925/oj/eng That regulation is very muc

The problem with Chrome and the DMA has to do with the fact that Alphabet does these "don'ts": - treat services and products offered by the gatekeeper itself more favourably in ranking than similar services or products offere

My mistake. While Booking.com is HQ'd in Amsterdam, Booking Holdings is indeed a US company (also responsible for Priceline, Kayak, and OpenTable.) > There are zero European companies, including Spotify - the #1 music streaming mark

That's not really true. You can easily switch to Deezer, Apple Music, Tidal, Qobuz, YouTube Music, etc. You'll have access to just about the exact same library of music. You can't just ignore YouTube, TikTok, Facebook Marketp

Isn't the question whether they were set because they were US companies, or because they are dominant gatekeepers on the Internet? 5/7 designated gatekeepers are US companies: https://digital-markets-act.ec.europa.eu&

Is this typical in Europe? If so, that sounds great. Years ago I heard from British friends that it was more expensive and slower. Like the United States, Europe is a big place!

I don't know, where do you draw the line? If I host it myself using nginx running on a VPS, does that count? Or still no, because I don't own the VPS? What if it's a dedicated machine, colocated? What if it's at home, bu

I agree with your overall comment, but I think this is basically what OP was getting at: it's not surprising that Gruber is against EU/DMA interference, yet even he has issues with this particular point.

The word "hate" itself also offers a lot of room for interpretation.

I simply quoted RFC 8375. It specifically called out that while RFC 7788 mentions ".home" (quoted below), it wasn't reserved, which ".home.arpa" aims to fix. But while you say "home.arpa is for HNCP", I al

RFC 8375 seems to have approved it specifically to use in Home Networking Control Protocol, though it also states "it is not intended that the use of 'home.arpa.' be restricted solely to networks where HNCP is deployed. Rathe

Whether the poster was "belittling Dropbox as a product" or "helpfully offering notes" seems like a judgment one can make about the exchange, regardless of poster's intent. I never understood this to be the reason i

This is why I said it depends [on whether the service needs to identify you.] In some cases, identification is not necessary for authorization.

I wasn't responding directly to Matrix's use of MAS. More generally I aimed to make the parent poster aware of a new technology that allows for private authentication, which they claimed was impossible. Privacy Pass is currently b

Yeah, I would argue it's less about removing trust from the client (which will ultimately get an auth token in addition to secrets and plaintext messages) and more about allowing for centralized authentication and authorization policie

by radlad 2y ago
With OIDC, both occur: the client is redirected to the authentication server where they directly authenticate, then carries a token cross-domain back to the service. Finally, the service validates the token against the auth server. The alte
