LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer

Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history. Every time any of LinkedIn’s one billion users visits linkedin.com, hidden code searches their computer for installed software, collects the results, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers and to third-party companies including an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm. The user is never asked. Never told. LinkedIn’s privacy policy does not mention it. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s real name, employer, and job title, it is not searching anonymous visitors. It is searching identified people at identified companies. Millions of companies. Every day. All over the world.

Oberon 3 for ARM (on the screenshot: RPi2) is neat. It is always refreshing to try operating systems and interfaces that live in a completely different paradigm from *nix or win-like. I'm running a pre-release from 11 hours ago.

In 🇩🇪 for example 99% of long distance and 80% of regional rail passenger-km are on ⚡️ railways

Rising fuel costs due to the Iran conflict give European railways an opportunity - can they seize it?

Go back a couple of short years to the months prior to the 2024 European Elections, and railways were trying to set their political direction. This was is in CER's manifesto (PDF): "the regulatory framework today is not fair, with railways carrying many costs and obligations not imposed on other

@vivtek @johl Generative AI consists of one proposition: there are in-groups that copyright protects but does not bind, and everyone else, whose work is fair game for stealing.

„Björn Höcke“ ist ein Klarname. Und der schämt sich trotzdem nicht, rechte Hetze zu verbreiten.

„Willy Brandt“ hingegen war mal kein Klarname, weil man manchmal ein Pseudonym braucht, um sich vor Nazis zu schützen.
