Compared to illegal mass surveillance programs that remain running to this day, and a witty intelligence head who remains free after lying under oath, this is a shinning success th…

I don't know much about macOS development, but I am a linux developer by trade. Can you elaborate further on how linux doesn't do long-term healthy platform maintenance? I also don…

The same with Samsung printers division which is actually owned by HP. I think punishing a company for selling their trademark so that other companies can mislead their customers i…

Linux and macOS game development in a nutshell - spend $200K to make a buggy mess that doesn't work, get surprised when paying customers are upset"

The solution to leaking private information has been known for a very long time: Don't collect beyond the bare minimum required to render a service. Microsoft should not have colle…

What about those messages before the signal protocol was adopted?

Has there been any weakness found in Telegram's encryption?

No demand for work is being made here. I'm simply saying a project that isn't a toy project will be criticized if it doesn't behave according to community standards. I'd consider i…

I don't know how to word this so I'll say it bluntly (and probably bear the blunt of this community as a consequence): If you're a developer of a project that is used in a security…

That's why I never use my real google account with my phone. Android phones offer too little control over what is perhaps one of the most important digital asset I own: my google a…

It's amazing what credible competition can do. If only C had the same kind of pressure.

Exactly. I've never considered voice assistants because I don't want recordings of me or my family being used for who knows what. I've just looked over the docs. I'll probably be p…

Adobe moved to a subscription model. They lose revenue as they lose customers.

zero demand for a PAID Photoshop? If that's what the study really concluded then it completely failed to take into account current customers who want to switch to linux. I would lo…

This is what drove me to use Debian. I used to spend quite a but of time hunting down telemetry and other canonical-serving crap, but I eventually got tired of it. With this crap a…

If I suspect that there is any chance my family's private information is going to get leaked, then I will not touch it. Appliances should never have internet access. Software updat…

>(Exception being if you use the dns challenge) Exactly. DNS challenges don't suffer from this issue.

> Rooting won't help most of these devices. They just don't have the horsepower. If a device can "display" webpages then it's extremely likely that it can handle tls. > Moreover, t…

Even if the number of boards was small, there should be some form of tangible proof instead of them just going off statements of unverified "sources". I haven't read a single bloom…
