Deliberate Internet Shutdowns - Schneier on Security
For two days in September, Afghanistan had no internet. No satellite failed; no cable was cut. This was a deliberate outage, mandated by the Taliban government. It followed a more localized shutdown two weeks prior, reportedly instituted “to prevent immoral activities.” No additional explanation was given. The timing couldn’t have been worse: communities still reeling from a major earthquake lost emergency communications, flights were grounded, and banking was interrupted.

My Mac Contacted 63 Different Apple Owned Domains in One Hour - While Not is Use
During a one hour period today, my computer contacted 63 different Apple domains while i was not logged on and using it.
I have been trying to minimize to the extent possible the reach of big tech into my life. A full 25% of the DNS queries from one of my computers (M2 MBA with macOS 15.4) are to Apple owned domains - even though my DNS provider (NextDNS) blocks Apple's native telemetry. Additionally, since I do not use Apple for my mail, contacts, calendars, podcasts or news, I already have the routes to those Apple services blacklisted.
Interestingly, my 2019 Intel MBP with the same DNS settings has less than 3% of it's DNS queries hitting Apple domains.
Here are the domains Apple contacted during one 60-Minute Period When I Was Not Using My ComputerOne Hour - 63 Apple Domains
