This is why you use Firefox that keeps the cookie jars separate (by default, AFAIK). That should prevent this specific implementation, shouldn't it?

A troll farm will happily go through that effort then (if it's a high effort part of the campaign rather than just 'flooding the zone') pick the images that are most likely to pass.

That's not how I read the linked thread. The linked thread sounds like the JSON file also has metadata attached to it. Since it's a JSON file, I wonder what's actually inside, and why the blog post doesn't mention open

Another related way is to store nuclear waste. The properties (as described in this article, impermeable/self sealing etc.) sound great until the reality that water dissolves salt comes knocking and further confronts you with the reali

For providers that just act as middlemen, I assume data that doesn't have a residency requirement is stored outside, so probably a) letting customers in other areas know that their data is backed up to another continent b) asking the

I wouldn't be surprised if the engineers said "we can probably recover between 20-30% of the data but it will cost 200 hours of engineering and the data will be 7 months old by then" and the beancounters said "we'd

They're likely going to target two datacenters, not the datacenters + your medium sized company's office NAS and the safe in the office manager's home. (Encryption handles confidentiality concerns.)

... but not only in an Azure datacenter! (The obvious option here might be an encrypted backup on some hard drives in a safe in a local office.)

Nowadays they do #3, demand that the customer takes pictures with a special app that claims to make the process nearly as trusted as #1 while being nearly as cheap as #2. The idea is indeed that instead or in addition to requiring an app, t

I find your comment unnecessarily harsh. I don't see a claim that the open source solution is better or a good solution for actual production use by airlines - it reads to me as a "here's how to use what's openly availab

This is really clever from Apple. The journalist use case is just the PR story. This will be really useful for identity verification and insurance apps, and has the potential to shift from "you need a smartphone to be able to live norm

The Arizona Sunshine series are also really great VR-native games. Not AAA but far closer to a complete game than most VR games.

Google gets paid to show the ads. Adding friction to the process (on the advertiser side) means less money for Google: 1) due to the cost of implementing the checking, 2) because some legitimate advertisers will be falsely denied, 3) becaus

The biggest problem with this is if the target URL doesn't load but also doesn't quickly error out, like e.g. many .gov sites in Europe (seems like they are just dropping traffic from non-US IPs). Now you can't load the page

"Figuring it out" doesn't help if it's encrypted with a key only Google holds or a reference to some database record that you don't have. In either case, the only way to resolve this is to ask Google, which means th

There is no alternative. Apple isn't going to let them build on top of iOS, and anything except those two is dead in the water because it'll never have users because it is missing a bunch of critical apps, and will never have thos
