The problem to me is rather, will also Bing and Google limit their bot to site indexing. IMHO it just does not make sense to use multiple bots, however, robots.txt gives no syntax afaik to limit purpose? This is particularly weird since the

The news made me unexpectedly said. There are not many people that felt so close without ever knowing them, just because I used their software. Thank you for the reminder to donate: the least thing one can do now. I think most of the digita

Society or companies are paying in many cases for LTS <<15 yrs. So at least there should be a price tag to compare the options. If I buy a car (which is a lot of software these days), I expect something like 20 yes LTS. So it is simpl

I totally agree. IMHO regulators should have been looking at safety net attestation already because it effectively destroys the claim of Google that OEM have a choice and it is not Google's monopoly. The problem is that Google is real

This seems like a Fraunhofer internal project so it seems to be from the base budget they can freely invest into research (still tax payers money and with a political edge to it) The general criticism to the European subsidiaries applies th

That would be an explanation and probably by okhams razor be more likely. But wouldn't that ISP notice the difference in traffic patterns drastically and react? It is just unlikely (but far from impossible) that this is something '

The interesting question is if there is a bot net spreading in Germany since the 17th of June. What would be the likelihood of that going undetected. If you like conspiracy theory, the rise in one country could point to state actors.

Interesting thing is that it is not legal everywhere in the world in such away. Fair use is a concept prominent in the US and not established in Europe (the datamining directive is a bit more limiting). Also the concept of informational sel

> though enterable input fields would be nice. So funny you say this. I could actually not believe that you really need to use another tool like protopie on top of figma if you need that simple functionality eg. for a mock-up.

I am a happy keepassxc user but I have criticized the authors on multiple occasions for not investing in a clear documentation of an attacker model. It seems to me a lot of bogus security is added here and there and this non-CVE is the resu

Totally agreed but good regulation needs a vision and common values beyond a common single market (alas we just do more regulations centrally in the fear to get regulatory fragmentation decentrally)

Actually the EU RF, product liability and cyber security regulations rather point into a direction that disallows use of aftermarket firmware that can delay onsolecense and encourages lockdown. Instead of overregulation we need create an e

The problem to me seems that it needs to scale with the number of requests. So PoW effectively burns energy. As the problem with captchas, is rather who profits from them and who could track users, it seems that with an OCR system to be pro

It will be hard to use the model without reproducing (copying) it. You may consider any output of the model derivative work and then it would apply. But that goes against the understanding that outputs of ML models are copyrightable. If how

Good chance for apple to try to repeat dieselgate: only charge fast while tested. Circumventing EU regulations is clearly a business opportunity, while all small competitors suffer from them. Only bad luck, that they are an US company and t

Don't know how much it is wort, but also GDPR applies. So you need a legal basis for processing (at least data from EU citizens). That could well be journalism or scientific research, but for anything else it probably should be compati
