Thank you for clarifying the issue better than I did!

There are several governments in Europe and abroad that have ordered DNS lookups for specific domains to be blocked.

They probably mean that we can’t trust the government to keep information free and need a way to restrict governments from blocking DNS lookups.

Unfortunately, you can’t really do DNS in a decentralized manner as the concept is based on a hirarchy.

Example:

If you want to go to www.coolsite.org your computer would make the following requests:

• Hey root server, who handles requests for .org?
• Hey .org DNS server, who handles requests for .coolsite.org?
• Hey .coolsite.org DNS server, who is www.coolsite.org?

I don’t really know how to decentralize this…

Humm, since I watch most of my yt on my iPhone on my commute I do get ads, at home I use uBlock, but only watch a small ammount of yt on my computer, I wonder if that is enough…

The way I see stuff like this is that you don’t have to hand over your information on a silver platter directly to the agents.

Like when a trainload of east germans was allowed to migrate to the west through a separate country, they just had to hand their passports to the Stasi before being let go.

When the Stasi agents came to the train to collect the passports the east germans just threw them on the floor instead of handing them over, that is kinda how this should be viewed.

One blurred house among many unblurred houses will attract attention toward the house.

Better to keep a thick hedge…

Streisand effect?

So far I have yet to hear about another car maker making a car that locks the doors in a fail deadly way, or another car manufacturer that requires dismantling the interior to get to the emergency door opener…

Then you have the Cybertruck, a vehicle so insanely dumb that only a ketamine fueled bender with a group of yes men could have created it, I mean it can’t really be used or the finnish is runied.

That is just not comparable to other car makers.

I drive a 2021 Seat Leon PHEV, I like it, but I am no fanboy for Seat or any other VAG brand, we don’t need fanboys, we need critical thinking, and if a cars doors was reported to fail deadly, I would not buy that car, regardless of how excellent it may otherwise be.

Timebombs in Windows 2000?

And this is why the EU should have ignored the US when they whined that our Gallileo system used different frequencies from GPS.

As it stands now Gallileo was built to using frequencies that the US can jam using GPS.

I hope the standard makes it clear that touch buttons are about as bad as a touch screen is

Based on that wording they can take any data you enter on a website and use it.

This means that…

…forum posts…
…personal details…
…banking information…
…pictures…
…passwords…

…can be collected and used.

This is an EXTREMELY broad blanket policy, and is an absolute insult to their previous work with privacy.

“But how will I livestream my protest against Elon on X with out my phone?”

Thank you for the explanation!

The article is terribly written, you need to scroll way down in the article to find out what ROP means, despite the article using the acronym several times

ROP?

I need to get some Meshtastic modules…

I doubt it was the innovation that made Atlassian buy the service, but the technology itself, they were interested in using that technology themselves and it was easier to just buy the tech rather than develop it in house.

So this is the Land Warrior concept that keeps going?

Part of me is annoyed that I didn’t get a Mazda 3 when I got my car back in 2023, I got a 2021 Seat Leon FR PHEV Hatchback.

I like the Leon, but it has so much touch controls.

The worst is the controls for the fog lights, heated rear window and defrost.

They are all located on a small touch panel to the right of the steering wheel, it is also angled down making it harder to see.

So if I am driving and the windows start to fog up I need to take my eyes off the road and aim my finger to touch the correct button without touching any other controls as I might be blinding other drivers.

It is a terrible design.

The AC and battery management screens are all under different submenus on the infotainment screen.

The rest of the car is great though, and so far i have not seen any ads on the screen.

I mean an island with no internet connection isn’t that expensive to him
