WinFuture.deDer alte Filesharing-Dienst #LimeWire erlebt ein überraschendes Comeback als Anti-Zensur-Tool für einen kritischen TV-Beitrag über einen Abschiebe-Knast, den CBS in den USA zurückgehalten hatte. https://winfuture.de/news,155792.html?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=ManualStatus&utm_campaign=SocialMedia
"Inside CECOT": Limewire wird in USA als Anti-Zensur-Tool reaktiviert
Ausgerechnet LimeWire, ein Relikt aus den großen Tagen des Filesharings, steht plötzlich wieder im Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit: Über das Tool wird ein kritischer Fernsehbeitrag verbreitet, der in den USA eigentlich nicht zu sehen sein sollte.

.:\dGh/:.So, I installed #PairDrop on an #OpenWRT router for two reasons:
1. I like #LocalSend but their server is not open source and you cannot self host it completely.
2. It falls back to websockets so you can still use it while offline for the local network.
Don’t get me started on #Limewire.
