Just a reminder, #centralising #security is a super shitty idea: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2023/09/expe.. #lastpass experienced a #breach where 25 #million #users had #passwords #exposed . There already appears to be $35 #million in #crypto #stolen as a result.
Quite scary that the #fbi can #identify #users of #tor - something I have #suspected for years now: https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2..
Okay, the #ftx #saga is just getting worse and worse: https://youtube.com/watch?v=MWfuDeO9thk This whole thing will continue to #explode . There are #billions of #us #dollars missing from #ftx #accounts , which were themselves from the #users . #ftx is really fucked.
Turns out that #binance will actually *not* be #bailing out the #users of #ftx after #citing #finances and #investigations https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/..
Okay, this #ffmpeg #gui for writing #commands is pretty impressive: https://ffmpeg.guide/ It costs a lot per month, but for #power #users this is well worth the #cost !
Apparently #google #users will get a #free #upgrade from 15GB to 1TB #disk #space in the #cloud https://lowendbox.com/blog/google-is-upg.. I can't confirm if this applies to #email and #google #drive .
Oh wow, #xcel , a #power #company in #us #colorado #blocked #users from turning down their #thermostat during a #heatwave https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/pow.. Just shows if it's #connected to the #internet , you probably don't #own it.
So #twitter are #introducing a very #basic #edit #feature for #paid #users only: https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/twi.. Apparently for up to 30 #minutes people will be able to make #changes. Wil be interesting to see how this plays out.
Interesting, it appears as though #manga / #anime is bringing new #users to #pirate #torrent #websites https://torrentfreak.com/pirate-site-tra..
Cool move by #elonmusk to #buy #control over #twitter rather than try to #create a #platform and #fight for #users https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/twitte.. Maybe #twitter will end up as a #freespeech #platform after all?
#spotify #ceo #apologises to the #staff - not the #users for not #censoring #joerogan 's #jre #podcast sooner: https://www.lotuseaters.com/spotify-ceo-.. Apparently #rogan #removed 70 #episodes that included the #word " #nigger " rather than #censor them with a #beep or #blank ... This is why I still maintain it was a #mistake for him to move to that #platform - let alone his now lacking #discoverability he had on #youtube .
#twitter #incorrectly #punishing #users of their #platform for #correctly saying that #covid #vaccinated persons can still #spread #covid https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/twitt.. It's simply a #truth - if the #vaccine was 100% successful there wouldn't be a #efficacy rating. But even for people whom it does work for, they can still spread it, especially the #delta or #omicron #variants !
Damn, appears #pine #pinephone #users have just been #targetted with #malware to kill their #modem https://politictech.wordpress.com/2021/1.. They shared a ' #game ' with #obfuscated #code ! Have to be super careful.
This is an awesome #review of #linux #game #users #reporting #highqulaity #bug #reports https://old.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comment.. I very much agree with this, although it's not always true. Watching the #pine #forum for example, I see some of the worst #linux #users reporting stuff that cannot be actioned on.

Kind of a good sign that even Facebook can't get in.
The #founder of #compound - a #decentralized #financing #defi #app is #blackmailing #users with being publicly #doxxed unless they return $90 #million #usd that was sent out due to a #bug https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/01/defi-pro.. Apparently the #founder suggested that they can keep 10% as a #whitehat #reward ... It seems like this #platform has already burned their bridges, there's no way people will continue use it if people are getting #threats
