This is an outright lie. No it wasn’t.
Yikes, this is a bit too harsh.
It’s a joke, buddy. You must be fun at parties.
Dude, that company sounds awesome!
More TDS redditors ruining any semblance of a healthy discussion on HN
Humans learn from mistakes and feel the repercussions. We understand this starting from when we’re infants.
Is this sarcasm?
Bad drivers absolutely get fines and jail time for speeding, DUIs, etc.
Yeah, that’s not the definition of spyware.
They use mules all the time
This is very likely Lazarus Group - specifically Famous Chollima aka the DPRK
There has been a substantial surge in low quality and Reddit hive mind replies on HN lately. I’m curious what the root cause of it is.
Whether I agree or not - it’s comments like these that make HN feel like hivemind Reddit where people just seethe and rage post.
I’m always curious why local models aren’t being pushed more for certain types of data the person is handling. Data leakage to a 3rd party LLM is top on my list of concerns.
I’ll die on the hill that the Ultima 7 games are the absolute best RPGs ever made. So beyond their times and hold up incredibly today.
The privacy issue still exists in this scenario.
All doctors (including concierge) use 3rd party services for practically everything from blood work to imaging to application products. It’s safe to say that it’s very likely that they’ll outsource the genetic testing to a 3rd party
Sounds like you preferred it when it was controlled by liberal interests.
They aren’t saying that - and you know they aren’t. They’re also correct.
Fediverse, in my actual experience, is overwhelmingly filled with hyper left leaning echo chamber content that I’m not interested in.
Maybe yes? Maybe no? This has been an ongoing situation with the UK and demanding backdoors into US platforms - I’m not convinced them dropping it came down to “striking a secret deal”.
I think this is a bit of a sensational take. The code being executed is all there without obfuscation.
I've been in infosec for the past 14+ years and hiring these types are pretty nuanced and complex. On one hand, you have a person who shows their ethics are questionable at best. Do you want those folks having the proverbial "keys to the kingdom"?
On the other hand - people make mistakes and learn. And these types of folks are decently effective at what they do - although I will say the fact they got caught demonstrates they're not THAT good.
I'd probably pass on this specific person for the latter reasons.
That terminal and even the associated game look incredible!
Metrix!!! I used to live across the street from them and would go there often. Capitol Hill in Seattle is outrageously expensive.
Monero was built and used for privacy purposes but it gets abused by cybercriminals for malicious purposes. Just like all cryptocurrencies and even plain paper cash.
This is my take as well.
You have a service thats installed for one-click operations from Brave customers that want to use their VPN. The VPN service doesn't run in the background post-installation and no tunnels are established.
I see the customer experience reasoning here. Can someone explain the actual risks - I'm not seeing any.
As someone who works in the antibot space for a FAANG, this type of solution can actually be very effective initially. Bad adversaries will adjust their TTP's (Tactics, techniques and procedures) accordingly - I wouldn't be surprised if ATO (account take overs) rise to compensate for paywalling on new accounts.
I really respect the dedication to removing the huge problem of bots in the social space and I feel the ripple effect could be tremendous if a big dent is made.
> This is HN, not a general forum. People here who care about privacy should be able to use such devices. So I recommend them.
I think the spirit of respectfully challenging what you're stating is the nuance of privacy versus the entire world.
Even within the HN audience, I don't think it's a stretch to say some individuals would prefer a secure(data enc in transit)-and-available (note: not a complete E2E private against 3 letter agencies) versus perfect privacy.
FWIW, I'm one of those folks that have iOS devices that turned on E2EE for iCloud. I'm attempting a "close as I can get to amazing privacy but also balancing the nuance of life" strategies.
I believed you until you mentioned, specifically, "max settings" and that is flat out not accurate with the games released in the past couple of years.
I'll always appreciate a Hackers (greatest movie of all time) quote. :)
