Het Koninklijk Nederlands Meteorologisch Instituut breidt zijn weerapp uit met onder meer vooruitkijkende radarbeelden. Dat is mogelijk door een wetswijziging die de wettelijke taken van het KNMI verbreedt. https://tweakers.net/nieuws/248034/knmi-maakt-radarprognoses-beschikbaar-in-weerapp-na-wetswijziging.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Tweakers
KNMI maakt radarprognoses beschikbaar in weerapp na wetswijziging

@brnrd the general approach is to use what's there instead of reinventing. I have never heard of self-built solutions in that area.

From what I understand of the article, I do suspect that this problem will not affect government instances as the server is trusted and access is handled with OAuth2 against an employee directory. There are no public users involved. This should still be addressed of course.

Maybe @GoFAST_CEOVision could elaborate. GoFAST and DXC (my employer) are partners.

I must be missing something...
What are governments trying to gain from adopting Matrix protocol? Is it just the "private space" with vetted users where support cannot be spoofed? Is it security by obscurity?
The Polish system seems to be on the open internet, the cryptography has flaws (read @saotok 's blog) or has the crypto been fixed?
The users are the same, are there extra guarantees on device security (e.g. GrapheneOS only?). The users will loose phones or have them hacked, will still fall for phishing, etc.

KDE on FreeBSD has a working Update app (uses native pkg it seems).
Excellent!

(This may have been there for a longer time, I don't often use GUI on FreeBSD)
