Damn straight. Another reason not to buy a pi.

I worry when this happens about being locked in to older versions of apps, especially ones like browsers that themselves aren't getting updates. It will only need one dedicated soul to find a remote code execution exploit for one of these pieces of software and you may not even need to click malware to get infected. Visiting a website or just having it connected to a public network would be enough.

Big nope from me.

1. Go into your BIOS and disable Wake On Lan (WOL).

2. Boot Windows, start Device Manager, right click your network card (probably Intel I217-V) and disable all WOL settings there too.

3. Completely power down the PC (don't just reboot) and then try booting Linux.

Everything on the archive page you are viewing*.

Potentially the .ru scripts could rewrite or censor part of the page or redirect you somewhere, but cannot modify the page permanently. Nothing really dangerous or privacy-invasive though, unlees you're the type to fall for primitive phishing attacks.

I see this as a none-issue. Block the counter/event domains via an adblocker or dns and nothing goes to Russia an nothing gets modified or censored.

Not answering your question directly but have you heard of Nuclear Music Player? It searches the Spotify API for track names and plays them from Youtube.

Using a Pixel 6 with Graphene here with google services in their sandbox. It's pretty neat, especially with apps like Firefox+uBlock and GrayJay, which let me also block 99% of ads, which was very important to me. I have not had trouble with any banking apps either.

I was unprepared for this and now I need to clean the carpet.
