lol. Yeah, censor my reply instead of explaining how exactly my comment is against the guidelines. The double standard is palpable. Criticizing Scholz for lying is apparently a no-go but we can call Putin a monster https://hn.alg

Poland sent tanks to Ukraine, it’s not a big secret even if you’d like to pretend that it is. I’m not sure why you’re getting caught up on the US, that’s just weird and makes it seem like you might have some ulterior motives. US is sending

I think it’s fair and reasonable to expect a basic level of knowledge when someone is making such confident statements regarding their reverse engineering work. Defeating certificate pinning with tools like Frida is one of the most basic an

Well, that works as long as the … is some fairly unobjectionable group of people. It doesn’t work if you substitute it with “drunk drivers” for example. Not sure we should be too worried about “them” coming for a cyberbullying subreddit.

Can you put an email or other form of contact in your profile? Happy to make a referral, but they’re not interested in clients with below 250k GBP annual travel expenses.

It’s also not a problem for luxury hotels openly hosting gay clubs on premises. What exactly would be sufficient evidence?

I already addressed this in the very comment you were replying to, certificate pinning is very easy to defeat with public tools.

Yes, the concierge company that handles essentially all of our expenses accepts cryptocurrency. It’s probably been a couple of years since I paid anything from my own bank account. Meals are usually prepaid by the concierge or local hotel s

I follow tens of Emirates staff on my instagram and it’s really hard to square this with all the profiles of openly gay Dubai residents I know. Was your friend perhaps a local? The rules are unfortunately different depending on where you

This was before 2015, no? It’s kind of meaningless to worry about things that used to happen years ago in a country that’s modernizing so fast. > There are lots of cases of guys being thrown in jail and being fined for something as simpl

Nobody has been arrested in the UAE for consensual same-sex conduct since 2015. There are a lot of gay clubs openly operating in Dubai.

There are a bunch of fancy gay clubs in Dubai though, nobody goes to prison for being gay. According to US state department there have been “ no known reports of arrests or prosecutions for consensual same-sex conduct.” since at least 2015.

I’m not convinced that actually matters wrt North Korea. Besides, sanctions enforcement turns pretty active when you start prosecuting violators.

Yeah, this is not normal. Now before you can get a low-skilled worker visa you have to sit through an hour long lecture explaining your rights, they tell you over and over to not let anyone take your passport and who to call if someone does

You say this like it’s the norm and that businesses don’t get penalized if they do this. That’s simply not true.

It’s not nearly as widespread in 2022 as you might like to think. To get a low-skilled work visa in Dubai you have to sit through an hour long lecture explaining these rights, including what to do if your employer takes your passport. You a

If someone confiscates your passport in Dubai you can have it back within 24 hours by just calling MOHRE at 80060. It is illegal to do this, enforcement is pretty aggressive. As to denial of visas? At least the UAE offers these people a cha

Yep, it’s sort of hilarious to see us rich Westerners criticizing work conditions in Dubai while our countries simply make it impossible for these same people to get visas to work in the West. UAE is doing more to improve the lives of these

But surely the victims are not sophisticated enough to google numbers? And even if they are, how hard can it be to find some poor people to go get 10 sim cards for 10 euros? I know that wouldn’t be hard at all in my village. Or to just corr

But why does the amount sim cards matter for this scam? How many hundreds of sim cards do you need? Surely it’s easy to find other people to buy sim cards for you?

There’s a decent amount of maritime trade, especially for oil. Fishing is also important for the domestic economy.

This story doesn’t add up. You need an ID to pick up cash from western union, why would showing an ID to get sim cards be an issue at all? Odds are that this SIM card legislation actually had nothing to do with the scam fading anyway. The v
