Venture capitalism is what it’s called, I think

Yes, something where FOSS shines. Linus’ law and Kerckhoff’s principle.

Too bad this doesn’t really mention the Fediverse or open-source software. Seems a next logical step

I… Don’t understand what you said here 🫤

I mean… For real, I’ve never heard of Linux systems being hacked this way. I’m sure it’s possible, but it certainly seems rarer.

Slipping shit in upstream also certainly doesn’t happen "that* often. It takes effort to become recognised enough as a developer to be allowed access to the upstream code, meaning you can’t automate those kinds of attacks. (I imagine. Correct me if I’m wrong.)

Don’t forget the raging alcoholism

Ah… Proprietary hardware and software. Ugh.

At least. Honestly I’m expecting a full dictatorship at this point…

Meta was really GENOCIDED for their deeds.

Oh! That guy who murdered a CEO was called Luigi too, that must be what they meant!

I tried to stop following American news after Trump’s re-election, so I probably haven’t seen this story as often as most others here have.

…I don’t get it.

Honestly, my problems with Apple go beyond just the privacy issues.

Interesting, I hadn’t heard about this before. Thanks for sharing.

Why would you use iOS if you care about privacy?

That’s amazing, for software to be able to cause that!

You made me smile.

I mean, be nice if the US didn’t turn into a dictatorship in a few months. Don’t see any company-unfriendly laws going in effect there any time soon. But perhaps in Europe there’s still some chance of this happening.

Interesting! I’m glad the fediverse is expanding in this way.
