I've been maintaining a spare phone running lineage os exactly in case something like this happened - I love the apple watch and apple ecosystem, but this is such a flagrant abuse of their position as Maintainers Of The Device that I h

Not to mention that some roles requiring tight focused interaction (such as mine) benefit greatly from in person meeting. Ideally, for me, I'd be in office two days a week (and no more). I'm much more productive on my technical ta

This is horrifying. Does this only affect iMessage, or the photos library? Is it remote? Does it require physical access? As I understand it: it's a tool (that sends a command of some sort) that compels an iphone to perform the hashing

There is no place for an out of dom signalling mechanism like alert() on the modern web. I would hope to see a multi-year phase out of something this integral. I can't remember the last time I saw it used for something useful.

Good. Alert is an archaic mechanism with tons of useful alternatives that don't involve blocking the DOM. For example, console log for debugging/demoing. On the other hand, I'm seriously worried that Google is using its posit

This makes a lot of sense, and is (IMO) a really great thing to do for users. IMO Cross Origin iframe alert/prompt should only be allowable with CSP rules explicitly permitting the cross origin iframe in the first place (in allowlist c

There's a third pattern forward, which is that you rehash the entire password database with a more secure (specifically, slower) hash plus new, secret salt. This also means you have a chance to crack any improper salt/secret stora

> There is no line You are missing the point of the complaint, which is that it's a private decision to hold that policy. Maybe it was a bad idea to use the word "line", but the intent still stands unadressed.

Cloudflare is not a public institution. It troubles me that they get to define, draw, and then maintain that line. However, I do agree - privacy unveiling like that should require a judge's order.

Yes, but a big contributing factor is that the police in the US have a militarized wing, even in small towns. SWAT teams probably only need to exist in large cities, and even then, should rarely be utilized.

It's unfortunate that this had to happen, but the landscape around FTP is increasingly unexamined and part of a dead era. The effort required to build in robust SFTP support as well as convert existing FTP users to it is non-trivial,

Hey, kinda complicated. The reason they're telling people to use the "5G" network on their access point isn't originated in confusion about 2G/5G (although for sure some people ARE confused). The reason they're
