Japan tends to have extremely corporate friendly laws. Basically if the corporation doesn’t want you to do it, there’s a good chance it’s illegal.

It could also have been a ghost listing, but yeah, I’m baffled they aren’t profitable

Oh yeah generally I’d agree, with firefox I just think it’d be better to do what will push the fewest people away as long as it’s possible to maintain development.

Mozilla doesn’t have the sort of leverage to make an impact by abandoning apple devices. Firefox has an incredibly low market share and this could push people to other browsers. People tend to use the same browser for stuff like bookmark and password syncing, so abandoning ios could have larger consequences.

Probably didn’t see them, Epic’s already suing again because of their compliance plan.

I guess it would work, as long as you’re using an up to date zip implementation with AES-256 encryption. I guess my question would be why bother? Being compressed doesn’t add any real additional benefit, since just using text shouldn’t take up much space.

Is recommend just using an actual password manager for convenience, since you aren’t really gaining any security by only storing your passwords in a file.

I doubt it, at least in the US. Samsung tends to be pretty locked down.

The main gain would be losing any tracking youtube does on how you interact with their app. They could only track based off what videos your ip address watches.

Yeah, I was very confused, I thought they were maybe making a less privacy invasive alternative

Isn’t ubuntu pro free up to 5 devices

Do you remember what that extension is?

For android, I use https://revanced.app/

For desktop, I use https://freetubeapp.io/

Not concerning at all, pilots aren’t important to a plane.

open source definitely plays a role in Linux security, but it’s minor compared to stuff like market share, user privilege,

Is saying the role open source plays in Linux security is minor compared to the role other aspects play, not that the attacks are minor.

I like how you just ignored the comment you replied to which acknowledged linux makes up most servers and instead just argued against a guy you made up.

Oh yeah, definitely but those tend to be different attacks than would target random consumer computers.

Being open source definitely plays a role in Linux security, but it’s minor compared to stuff like market share, user privilege, package management vs just installing random exes, different distros using different packaging systems.

Not really, windows is most targeted because it’s most used. If Linux had comparable market share it would be attacked way more.

There’s the Intel management engine and the amd platform security processor. Both manage low level tasks like booting, and have access to network data. Amds psp is known to have unrestricted access to user memory.

There have been security vulnerabilities that would grant access to sensitive data exploiting both systems if not patched.

As for a backdoor, there’s no evidence but I wouldn’t be surprised. The NSA has programs to insert backdoors into consumer products and these seem like the perfect place to do it. But again, there’s no evidence either chip is part of these programs.
