Sad to see Mozilla becoming what they were supposed to protect us from…

Good read, I use crowdsec to block most of the traffic considered as malicious (which tend to overlap with scrappers), but I should look into Locaine to feed garbage to the remaining ones instead of throttling.

You need to provide the password to decrypt the data. Seems 404 is usually the password for g4u. Not sure how to input it in torbox

Installed via the Ganymede iso, worked flawlessly. I’m impress on how far Linux distro have progressed. Nvidia card was detected and drivers properly setup automatically.

Correcthorsebatterystable is not a good passwrod as it it just a combinaison of 4 words. Easy to crack with a dictionary attack

Main advantage to me is Granular permissions and segregation : each site can have different types of permissions associated and it’s easier to delegate site management (you can let the user manage their site) while limiting blast radius in case of error.

They want to send more data, but spent time to reduce the privacy impact with this feature. Data is still going somewhere that is not my computer and Mozilla is trying to force it as the new norm. Not a needed feature nor a requested one

Another Firefox feature I’ll have to disable. Ffs focus on the browser not integration with Google… SSO with entra is a PITA, but sure let’s focus on sending more data to search engines

“Our long-term vision is ambitious: to build the best VPN-integrated browser on the market.” What about building the best browser that does not fall behind all the Chromium-based browsers ffs?

Les cônes oranges trahissent un peu l’endroit 😜

My guess is that the downvotes are for the NSFW tag

I’m not debating the legitimacy of the law, just the technical feasibility for big compagnies to do it

A fine is just a took to force compliance. The company hosted outside of the justification is free to ignore the fine, but they should not expect the government to facilitate their operations within their jurisdiction, and thus apply additional sanctions

A fine is one possible sanction, imposing local network infrastructure to not carry your traffic is another one that can be used as a leverage to get the fine or to force to compliance a company.

Yes they can, intelligence/network compagnies like spur even sell this service, but I give it to you that as an individual it may not be a trivial task.

It’s another debate, but countries do have the authority to enforce their laws on their sovereign scope, which include network infrastructure located in the country, used to transport traffic from foreign compagnies.

In case of GDPR, this is not true and compagnies are subject to this EU law if they process EU citizens’ personal data. Wether they comply or can be prosecuted is another thing https://gdpr.eu/companies-outside-of-europe/

Some countries already do (See fines from Russia to Google), but the compagnies don’t have to operate in those countries and can choose to not serve traffic to IPs from that country.

While I understand the struggle, I would be careful not to taint the movement by aligning with money grabbers that don’t really care about the fight, just their bottom line. Especially when it’s 4Chan running to the feds 🤣

While I agree with you on the stupidity of the law, Americans company should not get away with not respecting local laws in country they do operate, like in the EU. An example is the fair usage law that is completely ignored by American company.
