Folding space, essentially.

A government that detains and assaults its own citizens without justification or warrant is no longer a legitimate government and must be dismantled and replaced with a government that serves the will of its citizens.

It’s not compulsory unless it’s a government office. If a local business is half-masting for that cunt, they are doing it willingly and proudly. You can fuck right off with your defense of anyone who supports that bigoted corpse. May he rot in hell for his crimes against humanity.

Aoostar makes some really great tiny NAS devices based on the Intel N100/N150 series, and they also have an AMD unit if that’s your jam (it’s mine). If you buy the one with built in main storage it comes with Windows 11 Pro installed but you can wipe that and install Linux or a dedicated NAS OS if you wish. Or just save money and throw a NVMe SSD in for the OS and a bunch of HDDs for media and go to town.

The best part is you can buy direct from Aoostar, no need to buy from Amazon though they are offered there too.

I also like UGREEN’s NAS offerings, they come with their own custom NAS OS that supports Docker so you can run all your *arrs and Jellyfin and other server apps as containers. The web-based interface is like using a normal Linux or macOS desktop.

See you on the high seas, matey.

Apple has already said they can scan your device, using on-device hardware and software, for CSAM and report that to the FBI. Yes, CSAM is bad and shouldn’t exist, but today it’s just CSAM that’s illegal and reported, tomorrow it will be the fact that one is LGBTQ+ or anti-fascist. They said they decided not to do it, but can you really trust them?

No amount of E2E encryption will protect you from an on-device spy that can scan and upload what is sitting on your phone every time you unlock it and therefore decrypt it. Your data has to be decrypted for you to interact with it, E2E only protects you when your device is in your adversary’s hands.

From your other posts you seem to be knowledgeable about security and privacy, how is it that you are turning a blind eye to this well known “feature” of Apple devices and just trusting their word that it isn’t enabled? Why are you so bent on propping up Apple as a secure platform when it’s so glaringly obvious they can’t be trusted with your data?

I will never understand why anyone trusts a corporation who has proven time and again to spy on their own users and report back to the government, even before Trump was on the scene. I guess Cypher was right, ignorance is bliss.

It’s already been proven that not only can Apple decrypt some of your data, they are more than willing to hand it over. They are a willing tool in the government’s quest to oppress society.

Fuck that noise, Apple is already firmly in the pocket of the orange fascist. They are no longer safe and are now a threat to privacy and safety. I would bet my entire existence they are already handing over data on anyone not straight white Christofascist.

It’s not just that it was useless to some people, it was a genuine security risk. OpenBSD’s port of Firefox has it disabled by default, and LibreWolf strips it out of the browser entirely.
