This is rich, as the megacorp data broker shenanigans is allowing the government to skirt around the 4th Amendment and track citizens without a warrant, and there is no other way to say it than it is a violation of…
I ran Manjaro for a while as one of my first Arch based distributions, and it was very good. They hold back Arch updates a bit with the intention to prevent breakage, but sometimes packages get out of sync with…
There are a lot of personal nodes distributed around the world, so I doubt the secondary conclusion about a directed attack at hosting providers. And really, anyone interested in using Bitcoin should have their own node to verify the transactions…
A technical write up on how Payjoin transaction wallets can leak information to identify who paid and who received, breaking the purpose of Payjoin transactions meant to conceal that information in Bitcoin transactions. Though in fairness to both Bull Bitcoin…

This is hilarious. So the backlash caused Amazon and Ring to drop the Flock team up, but still have a deal with Axon which does the same thing. The other interesting part is stolen police logins making it to the…
That’s the problem with all these surveillance systems, as cops just get lazier and all kinds of injustices occur. Factor in the expenses of time held in jail, using Marshalls to extradite her, and the huge payout that will happen…
