    Now, that could be a valid issue, indeed, though not sure for how long I care about those devices continuing to work without any valid upgrade path... Using things like HSTS and CS…

    Note that Seafile seems to still be using a very old and EOL'd version of Django that has known security issues (currently v1.5.12, I believe). https://github.com/haiwen/seafile/is…

    Zenefits and ZenPayroll are two completely different companies. Don't let the "Zen" part confuse you. :)

    Ah, so this is why Facebook tries to load Flash on almost every page... Allows them to gather data like this. Always wondered why Flash was "needed". (another reason to put Flash b…

    Yes, Firefox has supported public key pinning for a while now. You can check the latest status at https://wiki.mozilla.org/SecurityEngineering/Public_Key_Pinn...

    Yet another new crypto protocol... "Yay" What about when HTTP/2 becomes popular? You'll still have to deal with TLS then unless you deal with TCP connections directly (and bypass H…

    You can't buy Landscape directly, sadly... You have to pay for Ubuntu Advantage, which is their support offering, which is why it's a ridiculous $$$ per server.

    I have no interest in paying for Ubuntu Advantage. I would happily pay a reasonable amount for just Landscape, but Canonical doesn't offer that. Get your sales guys to fix that, an…
