Here's something for the next time you want to "expose" a phony: before linking me to your investigative source, ask for exact date-stamps when I made changes to the robots.txt and…

just for you, I redeployed the old robots.txt (with an additional log-honeypot). I even manually submitted it to the web archive just now so you have something to look at: https://…

notice how there's a period of almost two months with no new index, just until a week before I posted this? I wonder what might have caused this!!1 (and it's not like they only che…

the robots.txt on the wiki is no longer what it was when the bot accessed it. primarily because I clean up my stuff afterwards, and the history is now completely inaccessible to no…

What's the actual issue you're facing? I just tested the Stripe Dashboard in Firefox, and everything works fine.

"I'm in Europe so I don't have to care because software patents are not enforceable here" isn't the solution. Yes, patent law doesn't apply - but copyright law does, and they very …

The page you linked to has a FAQ section. > Q: Is membership in the Thread Group alone, at any membership level, sufficient to gain and receive royalty-free intellectual property r…

It's baffling that some people here can read a sentence like > Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifica…

This is not what the license says.

Here are the full texts of both emails I sent them: https://overengineer.dev/txt/2024-05-11-thread-group-emails/ The second one to their press team sounds super presumptuous, sorry…

This is the reason why this notice exists in the OpenThread repo: https://github.com/openthread/openthread/blob/1fceb225b3858a...

Lawyers have little issue defining blogs like mine as "with commercial interest". I have a side-business, so lawyers could make the argument that I use my blog as advertising. I ha…

This issue was caused by Google on their server-side, without any relation to a change in Firefox, so I'm not sure why you feel the need to yell at my Mozilla-colleague.

You are 100% correct in your assumptions. This isn't my first incident, and it won't be my last. As much as some folks here want to call me an asshole for that, we have a very good…

That was a limited time experiment, which got shut down after it didn't prove very successful. But from that, it's probably a fair guess that it would not perform well if rolled ou…

Exactly this has been attempted for a limited time in 2018, https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/10/a-new-way-to-support-mdn/ , and pretty much nobody actually paid.

Hey there, Mozilla employee here. I just looked at https://www.spotify.com/us/account/profile/ in my Firefox and it appears to be working just fine. Could you explain what's going …

That's amazing that you can do that. Anonymous credit cards are ruled out by law basically everywhere in the European Union. Assuming that I live in the US, and that everyone on th…

Tor, originally from "The Onion Router", works by routing your traffic through multiple Tor nodes. Like an onion, each node only peels off one layer and passes the packet on to who…

It's called Tor. And you don't even need a subscription for that.

We also have multiple documented cases of "no-log VPNs" submitting their logs to law enforcement. I even linked to one case in my post. What's your point here, exactly? Because my …
