I think it's more akin to a "get guns ez pz" article. Even if most people can get them, a lot of people don't because it's a hassle. But to be fair, if it's public information then heck, it was only a matter of time until there was a website making it ez pz.
That's not this article's fault. And some important context I managed to miss at first :/
‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops
Ahh, in amount of forest that's been burned. I see how the title is ambiguous. Welp, it's going to get worse as the climate heats up. But to be fair, they're comparing this event against the average. I don't know how much it varies year to year.
Either way, this was one of the worst fires in decades
Ye I expect so, I don't like the way this author just doesn't bother explaining her points. She just states that she disagrees and says they should be left to their own rules.
Which is probably fine, but that's just lazy or she's not mentioning the difference for another reason
She names Trump's points explicitly, but doesn't go beyond "the best practices of this and that institution".
I can't say they're wrong, I expect a scientific institution to have some integrity to say the least. But either she's too lazy to look them up, or she's not quoting any for a different reason
Windows 11 has the option to protect parts of your filesystem. You may want to enable that.
Why? Because otherwise, pretty much any app with the exception of those locked in a web browser can read anything in userspace on your pc. Which is basically everything unless you've taken extra steps.
That's been the norm for quite a while, and unlike android, microsoft is hesitant to ditch the old thing and add in a prompt "app x is asking for file permission (yes/no)" because they want old software to work with new things.
On for linux, you'll have to make an extra user, install acl support and pray it doesn't accidentally get written incorrectly by some random app. That is, if you get something like hexos for example. You can roll your own as well.
On mac, don't bother. Apple has been caught routinely lying about their security and just straight up not fixing major security flaws. Dump your stuff on an external drive and unplug it when you're done. That goes for their desktops and phones.

Did the writer realise halfway trough they had to meet a minimum way-too-many word count and just started repeating themselves?
