GOOGLE DESIGNED THE wireless protocol known as Fast Pair to optimize for ultra-convenient connections: It lets users connect their Bluetooth gadgets with Android and ChromeOS devices in a single tap.

Bluetooth pairing is not a difficult process, imagine creating a whole new attack vector for that. And of course security was an afterthought. Capitalism is amazing for wasting resources and getting bad results for it.

Yea, the defendants are

Anna’s Archive, f/k/a

Pirate Library Mirror, et al.,

edit: but Alexandra Elbakyan does sci-hub under her own name and just ignores US courts, since Kazakhstan doesn’t have an extradition treaty with the USA.

Been waiting over a year!

What’s the context?

They just don’t realise why.

Yup. Just how Sauron was able to see via the Palantiri, the Swiss army have concluded that they can’t rule out US intelligence accessing data through Palantir systems, despite reassurances.

The overwhelming majority of Somalis who live in the Minneapolis and St. Paul area are U.S. citizens, PBS reported.

And going after Somalis while Israel is trying to get a foothold in Somalia is sus af

The government’s new Online Safety Act 2023 (Priority Offenses) (Amendment) Regulations 2025, which came into force on January 8, 2026, designates “cyberflashing” and “encouraging or assisting serious self-harm” as priority offenses, categories that trigger the strictest compliance duties under the OSA.

How are they going to prosecute Grok and ChatGPT? Just above in my feed is an article where ChatGPT suggested drug combinations that led a young man to accidentally kill himself with drugs.

Agree, and it’s a way for governments to look like they’re doing something while continuing to not do anything. Wanna stop non-consensual sex with minors? Release the Epstein files and prosecute the offenders to the full extent of the law. Don’t wanna stop non-consensual sex with minors? Do this. All the privacy and free speech violations are just “collateral damage” and “externalities” inflicted on people who don’t really matter… the 99%.

BUT AT WHAT COST?!

No seriously how much does it cost I need affordable housing??

Are you serious? I had no idea Tailscale was a “trust me bro” kind of operation. I’ve always heard “serious” people boosting it.

I totally agree. It’s a test of submission. I bet my life savings that job would have increasingly creeping amounts of unpaid work and extended working hours, with the implicit threat that saying no means you’re fired.

In July 2023, PenLink merged with Israeli surveillance contractor Cobwebs Technologies

Tangles is a web platform, originally developed and sold by Israeli firm Cobwebs Technologies, that scrapes data from the open web, deep web, and dark web, as well as allowing for the tracking of mobile devices within a user-designated area, in a process known as “geofencing,” through an optional add-on feature called WebLoc.

Cobwebs and how the spying is going global.

WebLoc

lmao exactly

Hmmm sounds like what farmers that raise animals do. Fitting.

Europe doesn’t care about Maduro international law

FTFY

the most interesting part of international politics, the complex relationships between countries

Oooooh, I see… You’re not a big believer in international law yourself, either.

Like in February 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine. Yes, Russia and Ukraine have a “complex” relationship, but what matters is the law, not what Putin needs from Kiev. If you can’t see the double standard here then I don’t know what to tell you.

Yea! Same with “nuance” to defend an indefensible deed.

Oh wow you totally had me at first with your username… but now I’m on to you!!
