evacideIf you're mad at EFF for making it possible to use Chrome with less tracking instead of yelling at people to use a different browser, then I assume you have never heard of harm reduction. Giving people digital privacy and security advice means meeting people where they're at. Otherwise, you're just running your mouth to make yourself feel smart.
Low Quality FactsThings I have been told to do on Mastodon:
-follow more people
-follow less people
-put content warnings on anything related to politics
-put content warnings on anything related to dogs (seriously)
-use alt text to translate my posts into French
-delete my Patreon because I don't deserve to make money
-sell merch with my facts on them because I deserve to make more money
-stop doing satire because it is enabling fascism and will get Trump reelected
Moral of the story: I have no idea.
Jeff AtwoodPeople say "decentralization doesn't work as good as the centralized facebooks and twitters", but then I post here on highly decentralized Mastodon a silly little joke about the commando character in the old video game Command & Conquer from 1995 and get a response from someone who worked on the original game! .. uh, maybe it is working already? https://infosec.exchange/@codinghorror/110646289254212237

Missing The PointBreaking: US Coast Guard detects “banging” noises from hermetically-sealed Twitter.
SheldonThis is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself.
The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying.
In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right.
The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in.
This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS.
Unbelievable. It's amateur hour.
