L after L in EU. Yesterday it was butchering GDPR, today it’s putting backdoors in end to end encryption. What is next? The normal people can only take so much before they start burning shit and poking holes with pitchforks.

What?!? Please no! Can someone explain to me how this will help the businesses, because I don’t see the downsides from GDPR?

That is an easy way to make less traffic from people that don’t really care. When I see it, I close the page and look for the next result.

If you really need to know what is written there I guess you can Log in or use redlib or something like that.

They are the most well known private equity firm, but when I learned they are in the 40th place of how many assets they own and manage I was flabbergasted… Worth giving in some more time to understand what happened to the financial world in the past 25-30 years. https://www.visualcapitalist.com/worlds-50-largest-private-equity-firms/ . Personally I can’t wrap my head around how much money this ultra rich club has.

I have edited my comment. You can check this video which will explain it much better than myself: https://youtu.be/VTsBP21-XpI?si=viw0FEMffyhyba9v

I have edited my original comment, but this will explain it much better and showcase my statement much better: https://youtu.be/VTsBP21-XpI?si=viw0FEMffyhyba9v

Captcha was never good at stopping bots. It was always used to identify who is a human. In other words exactly the opposite of what you think.

Edit: because I see confusion, maybe a language barrier, here is an example of what people think it is and how it works: https://youtube.com/shorts/rme6PT7-CRI?si=iGx_v7Qp7oYqJQ3S Which is wrong on many levels.

Hope this explains it better than my original comment.

A couple years ago I read that Filecoin has teamed up with the internet archive to synchronize the data on the Blockchain. I’m not sure how far they are yet, but it’s something that could work if it doesn’t turn out to be just crypto hype in the end.

Well yeah, captcha/recaptcha was never designed to stop bots, but to spy without consent. Let’s not talk about the profit made by using it as unpaid labor to “decode” text and images for other companies. Should have been ditched long time ago.

I play overwatch on endeavouros and I have better experience on it than in windows. League of legends will stop working soon. In general most of the games with rootkit anticheat clients will not work on Linux. On protondb you can see rankings and user comments about games. Last I checked 2% of all games are not working on Linux.

What could work is to impose a daily progressing fine until the firmware change Is reversed and 3rd party ink Is allowed again.
