  • Well that answers that question. Thanks :)

  • 👋

    Most of us run systems for friends, family, even a few coworkers; but there are those out there that sell access to their systems to anyone willing to pay. This is explicitly forbidden by the TOS of Plex/Emby, and I'm pretty sure Jellyfin as well (haven't checked that one), but it still happens.

    There's even tools like Ombi to automatically manage requests from users passing them to Radarr/Sonarr to be retrieved.

  • "Melania moves through the action like a listless automaton, talking constantly but saying nothing, squired from Mar-a-Lago to Trump Tower to her final destination, the White House,"

    Wasn't predicting she'd die there, but ok.

    Do you think she'll end it herself? or will it be Trump. One of the staff? Orders, Revenge... Public service?

  • it's on by default

    It may well be on by default now. I just know I had to enable it the last time I looked at this.

    what do you mean by lockscreen bypass software

    Tools such as those provided by Cellebrite and similar.

    Lockdown mode is mainly to disable biometrics, to prevent someone on the street forcibly using them to unlock your device. It's not going to stop an entire agency with more sophisticated tools.

  • Spring loaded carbide center punch. Discrete and effective.

  • I saw a bunch of those cooler displays just showing errors/blue screens.

    I refuse to look at them anyway and just stand there holding the door open while I browse/decide what I want. They can pay to cool and then re-heat the room ontop of the power costs for those displays.

  • Illegal ≠ immoral

  • Would the station prefer to replace screens every few days, or just stop offering gas?

  • Or at the very least; turn your phone entirely off (shutdown) whenever you expect or encounter police contact.

    Biometrics only work when the device is already running. Mobile devices are in their most locked down/secure state when 'at rest', ie shutdown.

    In android; there is also a 'lockdown' mode you can quickly activate from the power off screen, that disables Biometrics until next unlock with a pin/pattern, but doesn't fully shutdown so you can still quickly access things like the camera. This has to be explicitly enabled in settings first and will not offer much protection from various lockscreen bypass software available to law enforcement.

  • Stuff like this is an interesting issue;

    On the one side: if Youtube is 'defiant', refusing to block streams the Israelis have ordered them to block; Israel will just remove/block Youtube from the country entirely, so no one has access, worsening news outreach overall.

    But on the other hand: when Youtube complies like this, they're seen as stifling free speach/news and submissive to Israel.

    Neither is a good choice, but there's no winning options here.

  • 96 violations in less than 30days.

    Punishment: a stern finger wagging. We better not see a 97, or Judge will have to wag his finger again; and you wouldn't want that on your conscience. Wait, there is no conscience within ICE...

  • You mean fraudulent trash, playing on the current drama to milk you out of your money?

    Probably doesn't even make sound.

  • Do your neighborhood a favor and bring a can of spray paint next time

  • Especially when most police 'leave' is paid admin leave. Ie vacation.

  • Your ISP could snitch on you for tons of 'illegal' traffic, but they don't because that would require deep packet inspection on an absurd amount of traffic and they gain nothing for it. Instead they pass on notices when they receive them from third parties, and take enforcement actions (like cutting off their service to you) only when they're directed to. They want your money after all.

    Torrenting for example; only gets flagged when copyright holders join torrent trackers, then send letters to ISPs that control the IPs found in those groups. That's not the ISP hunting you down, they're just passing on a legal notice they've been given and thus are obligated to pass it to you.

    From and ISPs perspective; a VPN connection doesn't look any different than any other TLS connection, ie https. There's nothing for them to snitch because a) they can't tell the difference without significant investment to capture and perform deep analysis on traffic at an absurd scale and b) they have no desire to even look and then snitch on customers, that just costs them paying customers.

    The ONLY reason this can be enforced at all, is because comercial VPN companies want to advertise and sell their services to customers; so lawmakers can directly view and monitor those services.

    Lawmakers have no way of even knowing about, let alone inspecting an individuals private VPN that's either running from private systems or from a foreign VPS.


    All that's not even touching things like SSH tunneling - in a sense, creating a VPN from an SSH connection; one of the most ubiquitous protocols for controlling server infrastructure around the globe. Even if traffic was inspected to find SSH connections, you CAN'T block this or you disrupt IT infrastructure at such an alarming scale there'd be riots.

  • So rent a VPS abroad and run your own VPN from it. Comercial VPNs have a business to maintain so they've got to comply to keep operating and public advertising, but a privately run VPN just for yourself is just another TLS connection in a sea of other traffic.

  • This reminds me of my middle+high school math teachers telling us we're not going to have calculators available...
