    I've just provided the easiest example of bypassing any boomer security nonmeasures. give a dedicated and competent attacker 15 minutes alone with your highly secure machine and hi…

    same. but I get the feeling that the era of services like that available in the browser is near its end. 10-20 years, and their website will only have links to 'get our app'

    on the contrary, that's the thing we want the most. having no way to curb abuse is what gave Tor a few orders of magnitude more adoption than the other alternative internets. havin…

    openoffice came out years before libreoffice, so if you had learned to work with it at the time and you still find it sufficient, then why switch? I doubt libreoffice is 1:1 identi…
