Taylor Wessing’s note correctly identifies that practically all European tech regulation, including [DSA & GDPR] is potentially vulnerable if U.S. companies decide to force European speech & data protection regulators to behave like any other European state or non-state actor, and render service through the treaties […becoming] vulnerable to constitutional attack the moment it is properly served, if not sooner.

"Invoking Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty with Singapore will give us crucial access to Zubeen Garg death case details and help us bring back the accused involved in the matter," Chief Minister Sarma said. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/assam-cm-asks-mha-to-invoke-treaty-with-singapore-in-zubeen-garg-death-probe-wpzprexy?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #ZubeenGarg #Singapore #MLAT #Himanta #Assam

@Jennifer it is.

Most of the terms and structures there would be so illegal in any halfway regulated juristiction that one could argue that it fulfills the definition of #extortion in some juristictions like #Germany, that I'd not be surprised if someone would make the case filing for asylum and pressing charges at the same time.

  • OFC this is #NotLegalAdvice and I'd be confident that unless the accused execs were dumb enough to enter Germany the entire case would get tossed by prosecution due to lack of #MLAT with the #USA and impossibility to bring the accused to trial (which they have to be - there are no #InAbsentiaTrials)!

各家飛機即時資訊網站用的 MLAT，定位飛機位置

看到「How Flightradar24 uses MLAT to counter GPS jamming」這篇提到他們用 MLAT 算飛機的位置，降低飛機經過 GPS 被干擾區域時資料問題 (通常就是戰場附近)。 查了維基百科有「Multilateration」這個條目，這張圖可以說明基本的點子，透過三個圓就可以估算出三維的位置 (也就是三個點的每個點都有一個半徑)： 對於 Flightradar24 或是 FlightAware 這些服務來說，收 ADS-B 訊號的站點位置是已知的，再加上用收到時間的差異就能算出飛機的位置，出自「How We Track Flights with ML...

How #Flightradar24 uses #Multilateration (#MLAT) to counter #GPS #jamming

“By calculating MLAT positions for all flights, Flightradar24 is able to counter the effects of GPS interference in real time and show a more correct path for an aircraft. We recently completed a major update to our MLAT calculations, allowing us to calculate MLAT positions using just three receivers”

@VanuPhantom in fact the only "deportation" I'd consider valid would be #MLAT to the #ICC and #ITLOS.

  • But those happen way too few and far in between.

Even if we subscribe to the notion that "criminals shall be depirted" that would also mean that any law-abiding individual shall be given right to residence and work in return!

  • But that also doeen't work cuz nations generally don't extradite their citizens even if they are convicted terrorists!

Finished splitting out the #ultrafeeder from the #piaware pod. Even gave it it's own namespace so only those pods have elevated privileges to access the #SDR plugged into the #USB port. Both feeders are now connecting to that pod. Also started enabling #MLAT for bonus points, but had to give those pods a lot more CPU becausing that turns out to be very timing sensitive 😅

@zdl @evacide that any the fact that @signalapp is incorportated in the #USA, making them susceptible to #GDPR & #BDSG-incompatible #cyberfacist bs like #CloudAct.

Remember: #KYC IS THE ILLICIT ACTIVITY when it comes to #Communication!

Compare that to @monocles / #monoclesChat which don't demand any PII or KYC and allow people to pay for their services with #Monero and #CashByMail besides #SEPA #WireTransfer, #Stripe & #PayPal whilst supporting both decentralization (#XMPP is not a #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider solution!), implementing real #SelfCustody (#OMEMO, #OTR & #PGP is supported out of the box) for all the keys, and proper #Anonymitiy (using @torproject / #Tor & @guardianproject #Orbot for #privacy), so in case they ever get a duely sumitted warrant by a court they'd have to comply with, they'll most likely have no data whatsoever on clients that could allow identification.

  • And that is a good thing, because whilst very unlikely, one cannot exclude the non-zero chance of i.e. #MLAT|s being filed with knowingly false information by 3rd countries.

Also having no PII is a matter of reducing #liability in the sense of #DataProtection: All data requested and by #monocles is the bare minimum mandated for #accounting (i.e. only linking a payment like a #TxID / Transaction-ID to an account and then adding up validity/activation period).

@AAKL @PCMag good luck trying to enforce that in juristictions w/o #MLAT!
