What a sloppy way to write this article. Header text to indicate CSAM then just naming people liberating netflix. Does german netflix stream CSAM? Or is this news outlet just kind of implying these people are sex criminals for fun?

On a different note, would love to hear from/about the 15 out of 18 people who were searched in Feb and apparently got away. Either being targeted for harassment by authorities, huge false positive fuckups, or have amazing opsec.

I agree it's not only the IP because there are other people on it.

I don't have any meta apps or google accounts for years. I buy on amazon very rarely. I have no apps of any of that type installed. 98% of my apps are f-droid and I flashed a rom. I use tracker blocker to sift through all traffic and limit to only what seems required.

I think it's very difficult to control what the phone is doing. Using the tracker blocker app has made me aware of how much data is flying all around at all times.

I should set up a pihole. It's been on my list of 5 or 6 years.

I disabled it everywhere because all I read was confusing with the sound of being easy to fuck up.

I use reddit via the Firefox extension LibRedirect which sends you to a mirror instead. Between VPN, ublock and attempting to access dodgy mirrors, sometimes I have to reload a few times but it eventually works.

@[email protected] mentioned getting a openwrt travel router as the last and kind of most extreme thing on the list. But its the easiest thing to do. Glinet has good ones with a custom (proprietary) openWRT variant on it with a simpler GUI but they are compatible with plain openWRT if you are able to manage it its probably better.

You can do much of that other stuff on the router then connect from other devices and have it follow the rules.

Digital ID laws in the UK and EU will make this increasingly infeasible

Sorry I might have missed something... Is this Tony Blair's little hobby horse for the past 30 years or is a more substantial plan in the works?

TBH I am getting discouraged on the VPN thing. I have been using it 100% of the time for years. I used to get ads corresponding to the exit location. But now I occasionally get ads corresponding to my actual location (down to the neighborhood).

But of course I do all sorts of online business where my address is provided, and when I do that I can easily be fingerprinted I assume. So somehow, it's gotten linked up in the back end.

It's sort of weird to upload because it's already on the hard drive where I want it to go.. Just has to get squeezed back and forth through the pipes of my LAN a few times to go through this process.

a special word for being prejudiced against the Roma People

According to wikipedia you have several choices: "antigypsyism, anti-Romanyism, antiziganism, ziganophobia, or Romaphobia".

Furthermore there are terms "porajmos (also porrajmos or pharrajimos—literally, "devouring" or "destruction" in some dialects of the Romani language)... Balkan Romani activists prefer to use the term samudaripen ("mass killing")" to describe the holocaust on Romani people.

It's difficult to over emphasize how willfully ignorant the above commenter is. They don't care about jews or roma. This is an example of real anti semitism, which continues to pervade, and is the reason why Israel and its oligarchs can get away with mislabeling legitimate activity as such. Because everyone knows there are people like this running around who are seeking to ride the wave of empathy for the palestinians (who they also don't care about) to stir up anti-jew attitudes.

yes that is correct. it is a server/client solution so you can track you progress.

zero finding ability. try Lazy Librarian.

remember that audiobooks are relatively rare due to their high production costs. so a lot of books do not have an audio version. Could consider text to speech.

there are some massive torrents that have like thousands of audiobooks in them and you have to go and select which ones to download. I'm not sure how I stumbled on these in the past so if you figure that out let me know.

But he paid $40B for twitter. $250M is the kind of bargain you only get after prior investment.

(And I guess I found something an individual can buy for >$1B, which is even more reason to prohibit anyone from having this much money.)

I think the ballot reform really helped in this case. We need ballot reform.

AFAIK even seemingly successful musicians often don't really make out with much cash. They incur a lot of costs even under the most "honest" industry contracts. Then there are cases of getting blatantly scammed like the Backstreet Boys or George Clinton.
