AWS SLOs are going to shit aren’t they?

In other news: Chinese marketing departments caught up to Western marketing departments in overselling their products.

The repo alone has 114 contributors, and that’s assuming no one copied code from any other project. It’s not that small.

One thing I’m missing in all this, did the dude change the license from GPL without the other contributors express permission? That on itself would be a massive violation of the GPL

For desktop you probably can use something like https://github.com/TCB13/LoFloccus/ to save the bookmarks to a file in Synchthing. (Disclaimer: I haven’t tried this myself)

That is a lower circle of hell.

One thing is allowing the other is actively collecting and processing the data.

Also no. But 2 wrongs don’t make a right.

You are speaking like there are only two alternatives and none of them involves following the law.

Firefox creates a report based on what the website asks, but does not give the result to the website. Instead, Firefox encrypts the report and anonymously submits it using the Distributed Aggregation Protocol (DAP) to an “aggregation service”.

Mozilla can’t send user data to an “aggregation service” without explicit consent, no matter how much propaganda they use to explain it.

Why is Mozilla coming from the position that what advertisers want is reasonable or acceptable in any shape or form? The advertisement industry existed for centuries without the ability to spy on people and they were doing just fine.

Edit: this being opt-out instead of opt-in also violates the GDPR.

Before that don’t forget to voluntary submit a summary report of your activity to the NSA.

Ah yes, the reasonable solution to deal with someone cosplaying as a private Stasi is to voluntarily submit a report of your activities /s

The middle ground is not always a reasonable position.

No, GPL in particular demands the copyright notices are preserved.

Windows XP code was leaked 2 years ago, so it’s freeware according to this idi… stable genius .

Do you understand what “comparing” means?

And a shortcut to open Microsoft® LinkedIn® at OS level, and what surprises me the most is that uses your default browser instead of always opening it in Edge.

In comparison with Windows and iOS, Mac OS is a paradigm of respecting the user. Of course that’s only because the bar is firmly embedded on Earth’s inner core.

That’s the current status quo. New legislation can always override old legislation. The only way to fully prevent these proposals would be to enshrine the right to encryption in a new EU treaty (which requires unanimity) and since the national governments are the ones pushing for this while the European Parliament keeps telling to fuck off, it’s not going to happen.

Like everyone using an advertisement company’s browser engine?

[Insert Rich Tech bro] is actually a nazi? I’m shocked. Shocked. Absolutely dumbfounded. /s

It would be more newsworthy to find any tech plutocrat that doesn’t have a far-right view of the world. But I would expect them to find a flying unicorn first.
