Most traffic on the Internet flows unencrypted through a portion of some reverse proxy MITM-as-a-service provider's gear like Cloudflare, Cloudfront, Akamai etc. You can't proxy TLS for people without having the ability to see the

There will always be a way around it. There are even open-source alternative/hacked firmwares for professional DSLR cameras where tampering with the signing may be possible. And this still doesn't help any other kind of image e.g.

There's also MPTCP (multipath TCP) which is even supported on mobile devices these days. So for example if your device has both a wifi and a cellular connection, and both ends of the stream support MPTCP, you can increase throughput&#x

That is exactly what I am claiming is false. Later LG even came out with their own statement saying basically the same thing I did. What is this separate feature you claim that is not the same as the one I refer to?

by ranger_danger 1mo ago
Agreed... the realization I had recently was that if I've got boxes that I haven't touched in years, then I won't really miss them as much as I think I will if I get rid of it.

Do you have a source for this claim?

My ISP seems to frequently rotate IPs with other people who can't behave, so my IPs always have garbage reputation... that probably has a lot to do with it as well. How do I know this? I have received reports from various websites (and

Agree 100%, your outlook on life is completely in your control. You can literally just "choose" to be happy, assuming there are no big mental health barriers in the way. Or rather, you can choose behaviors and perspectives that in

My understanding is that's basically all this does. Thousands of lines of text just to add one sentence to the prompt.

Sometimes a fandom site I come across is legitimate and has tons of great information, and other times they completely make up fake games or features and just act like it was always real.

The last time I tried to use LibreOffice, I made three hours worth of comments on a Word document. As soon as I saved the document, they all vanished. Then the developers mocked me for complaining. Now I just use real MS Office in a snapsho

I cannot visit most crimeflare sites because I just get endless captcha loops.

by ranger_danger 1mo ago
I'm more concerned about crimeflare's own incentive to analyze our traffic that people already willingly let them MITM, and somehow sell it to the highest bidder.

Yes but used how? What is the exact configuration and details for reproducing this?
77.
by ranger_danger 1mo ago
How was it actually factored though? Where is the code for that? How was the private key created and how are the new certs issued?

Right, and unless enough people are personally affected, I don't see there being one. I think this was an inevitable outcome of western culture's individualism being inherently selfish.

by ranger_danger 1mo ago
Yes that's what I'm saying this could be used for. Browser generates a client-side key (or any kind of identifier, possibly derived from the site's TLS cert/domain or some other info) for the current browser/user&#x

There are some projects that only release sources as a flat tarball at the same time as a new release, no git history/repo is available.

Most people are comfortable, but not everyone. At least, comfortable in the sense that they are not willing to die for their country/people at the moment, and aren't personally affected by most of the bad things their government

Currently yes, but there's not much stopping Chrome etc. from adding a new feature that has a way of presenting a client certificate to a website in a backwards-compatible manner. Of course the website itself would need to support that

I agree... it's very easy to have strong opinions about things you are sheltered from the consequences of. And strong feelings about issues do not emerge from deep understanding.

Let's hope this doesn't get picked up by the (corporate) masses... the last thing I want is my browser offering personal TLS certificates to every server I visit as some kind of identity verification or fingerprint/tracking.

Yes but on the scale of traditional social media sites' account populations, AT users are currently a rounding error. And sites aren't required to provide federation.

I suppose if we could standardize on some kind of federation protocol and have locally-stored (and synced between devices) identities we could use for accounts everywhere, that would solve a lot of problems, but I don't see it happenin
