Since those 1s and 0s became heavy enough to cause a global shortage of memory and GPUs.
>even worse, your phone that you carry around in public Sorry to attach on to such a small part of your comment. Why do you think having it attached to your phone is worse? In my understanding phones are WAY more secure…
Contributing to Open Street Map has given me a ton of satisfaction. Knowing that my somewhat minor efforts to correct one address, add one feature, correct one trail will propagate to so many different places and help…
I've always loved the ridiculousness of the "going dark" label when law enforcement can't access encrypted chats or a back door isn't built into a piece of software. When there are security cameras on the vast majority…
With fewer and fewer interesting things getting added from one generation to the next, freedom, security, and privacy have become my main selling point when deciding on a phone. 7 years of updates, strong hardware…
Stop manipulating our markets under the guize of national security or protecting Americans. If we need to be protected from bad behavior we need to be protected by all bad behavior regardless of it's origin. Has back…
They should have never been deployed to begin with. How expensive are drones? Way less expensive than a police officer. They can be deployed at scale. You can imagine a world where every move everyone makes is tracked.…
I have fairly simplistic view of the economics involved here. Could you explain why the ability to sell more chips wouldn't be sufficient enough incentive to increase supply?
Might be nitpicking, but USC 1983 does not prevent anything, it is an attempt at restitution after the fact, and even then, when qualified immunity in play the efficacy of even that is questionable. What does it cost a…
Just this morning I listened to an EFF podcast episode (Effector) about how license plate readers tend to suffer from mission creep. They might be deployed for one of the "reasonable" purposes you list but when the tool…
I don't think "could" is doing a lot of work here at all. It seems logical that if cases where the misuse of flock systems were discovered only when the same officers misbehaved in other, more visible situations then…
That is far down the list of reasons someone might want to know who is performing actions against them with the backing of the federal government. Much higher on the list would be accountability if they do something…
Pardons only enable presidents to direct their goons to operate outside of the rule of law without repercussions.Having one individual with strong incentives to enable their team stay in power as much as possible retain…
This could fit in well with the Pixel's upcoming desktop mode or Samsung DeX. Hopefully Google keeps developing desktop mode to make it more usable.
This is the tired excuses: If you've got nothing to hide then you shouldn't want privacy And If you already lack privacy in some places you should just give up on having any. The first is stupid. If there exists…
It seems like a centralized authority for DNS that must answer to some government is prone to censorship. Would moving domain registration into a public Blockchain allow for a more resilient and democratized internet?
Organic Maps is great and I'm hoping the transition to Forgejo goes smoothly for the project. I've recently started hiking and just generally going outside in my community more. When I relied on Google Maps I would get…
Have you ever experienced prison yourself or through someone close? Prisons don't put people on a level playing field at all. It is significantly more comfortable to be rich in prison than poor in prison.
Why do you feel that info is relevant? If my driver's license expired yesterday and then I get pulled over while I'm driving to the DMV today to get it renewed, should I not get a citation? Just because they had…
With kids involved many of the rights you normally have are removed. Police and DCS can use your silence (or a pile of dirty laundry, or you asking for a lawyer to be present, or anything they want) as a reason they…
Even more than phones, this is the reason our children are being raised stuck indoors, contributing to the ever increasing mental health crisis with our kids. Instead they should be able to discovering the pride and joy…
They are claiming that it is privacy preserving, since it uses AI and not humans, and only for catching csam Assuming those claims are true(I know, that is a big ask, but they claim it) what function do exceptions…
I am thinking of starting a competing product that uses wifi APs for geo location instead of GPS satellites. I want to be a more customer friendly business than google or apple though, it'll only be opt-in. All you have…
Seems like the perfect use case for timelock encryption: https://drand.love/docs/timelock-encryption/
