Defense against Signal may not be total, but if you build from source (or use a reproducible build) you can check to be pretty sure you have the same software as everyone else, in which case a backdoor would have to be…
The license seems to already require this: https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright/ Maybe I am misunderstanding the summary, but it says: "If you publicly use any adapted version of this database, or works produced from…
There is a book called "60 Years Later: Coming Through the Rye" which is (was?) banned in the United States: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_David_California Although copyright-infringing books may be illegal to…
Woah, I just realized (because of this comment) that I've been grouping "technique" and "technology" as a single thing in my understanding and calling it "technology"/"tech". For example, I would describe a method to do…
> At that point, people shouldn't buy the product if they disagree with the conditions. I think a problem with this idea is that terms of service can be difficult to understand. For example a lot of licenses or terms of…
There's also the free culture movement, which generally believes all creative works should be free, not just software. There are many people who would advocate for free software and not free culture, but jxself has also…
I think your definition of "free software" is too strict, otherwise public domain software would not be free software
Would you happen to know where the requirement that "“there is no way” you can make the radio do what the FCC doesn’t allow" comes from? I found an FCC compliance guide [1] but it's very long and not easily searchable…
Another option is cryonics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryonics It's not the same as what you suggest, but there's still hope you could regain consciousness, and this is a process that some companies already have…
A connection to Microsoft's servers will also be required to download the game in the first place, so I'm not sure this is really a problem (for compliance with the bill). I think the official launcher won't even let…
Does Minecraft's offline mode not work indefinitely? I'm not familiar with the official launcher but this article [1] doesn't say anything about needing to reconnect occasionally. [1]…
I agree with most of this, but "server binary with no documentation" is an extremely good outcome compared to the status quo. People can reverse-engineer a server binary, but reverse-engineering a server that is no…
This would be a way better outcome than the current default. I've even seen this suggested before [1]. If game-specific logic is not public, information needed for reverse engineering could be completely missing, but if…
What software do you use for the reCAPTCHA on archive.today? I use a fork of hacktcha [1] but I had to modify the software myself to get it to work conveniently [2], so I'm curious how other people do it. [1]…
Suppose the following: 1. Any given system has a finite number of findable vulnerabilities. 2. All findable vulnerabilities are fixable (if not in software then with a new hardware revision). 3. Fixing a vulnerability…
Cool! Would you be willing to license this code as GPL-3.0-or-later, or some other free license? I'd like to include a JavaScript derivative of this for Haketilo (a userscript manager). I would add it to a collection of…
In this case, it also seems like the paywall doesn't show up if you have JavaScript disabled, which I find strange, but lots of news sites are like that I think.
I'm not who the person you replied to is talking about, but I also didn't/don't use a mobile phone for a long time. Technically I had a mobile phone during this time, but it stayed powered off in my room. Now, I carry a…
