It just clicked in my brain. What I haven't been able to articulate about why I'm so anxious about #Windows Recall. I'm sure others have already gotten to where I am.
It's worse than "a system that tracks everything you do" and stores that info in a basic database that could be easily compromised.
It's worse than a nanny surveillance tool for companies to spy on their employees.
It's inescapable.
It doesn't matter if I make a dozen "how to disable recall" tutorials. The second YOUR data shows up on someone ELSE'S screen, it's in THEIR recall database.
It won't matter if you're a master #security expert specialist. You can't account for EVERY other computer you've ever interacted with. If a family member looks up an old email with your personal data in it, your data is now at risk.
If THEIR system is compromised YOUR data is at risk.
I just went from "vague feeling of unease" to "actively writing templates to canvas elected officials, regulators, and attorneys general."
Israel’s Seizure of #Gaza Border Zone Strains Ties With Egypt
Israel defied ominous Egyptian warnings & took control of the #PhiladelphiCorridor, but the reaction from #Egypt, which wants to maintain its #security cooperation with #Israel, has been muted.
The coming Olympic games in Paris must be a prime target for many terrorists. Many state and non-state actors are motivated to sent a message i think. It must be an incredible difficult job for the people responsible for security. To be prepared for anything and be able to handle different scenarios. In ancient times people stopped fighting during the olympics, those days are gone sadly. #olympics#paris#security#terrorism
Everything you ever saw or wrote on your device, even if deleted, will remain in definitely remain available and searchable for users of the device, including #hackers.
Opting out requires work.
Also, in my view, I doubt that it is #GDPDR compliant in its current form.
Beware.
I noticed that #Zed automatically downloads a NodeJS binary from nodejs.org without asking or even informing the user about it. Right after starting it and opening a file, without doing anything else. Then it installs some packages from npmjs via npm. And there’s no option to disable it.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE! I can’t stress enough how bad this is from #security point of view. And not just that, consider users on metered connections
I ordered these LITERALLY a YEAR AGO to the day, and they JUST ARRIVED!
Apple stalled the Google location tracker network for as long as they could, but now we FINALLY have some competition for AirTags!
Be scanned or be banned (from normal internet use): "Despite a nicer-sounding name, it would still be the mass scanning of the private communications of people who are not suspected of any crime even in E2E encrypted environments. Technology and cybersecurity experts have repeatedly warned that this cannot be done safely and securely – putting at risk the private communications of activists, journalists, young people, businesses and even governments!"

Advocating for #Wasmcloud to adopt a OSS-first approach and use #LinuxFoundation#OpenBAO as their example of a secret store integration in upcoming RFC implementation..
@linuxfoundation projects are already seen as overly corporate, and sticking as much as possible to at least #OSS and preferably even #FOSS in docs + elaborated examples would help to not further reinforce that notion.
Fascist Russia cut undersea communications cables.
Nothing to see here. Just perfectly normal russian bottom trawling back and forth repeatedly just on top of the main fiber optic internet cable between Svalbard and the Norwegian mainland.
The sabotage of the #Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines in the #Baltic Sea shed new light on two incidents in the Norwegian Arctic involving the cutting of communication cables.
