My 12-yr-old figured out how to bypass the parental controls on #DisneyPlus.
He couldn't find the movie Wish on the kids' profile... so he created a new profile. Which doesn't prompt for password or pin & gives you access to all the content. 😬

If you run a binary repo using fdroidserver and plan to update to the latest code, make sure to first study https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver/-/merge_requests/1466 and https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver/-/issues/1128 In short, despite of multiple warnings, changes were applied which will reject several legit and absolutely fine APKs, e.g. such using key rotation. You will no longer be able to keep those in your repo once you've updated fdroidserver to that. Cases might be few, so you might be affected or not, but please check to make sure.
Those changes are currently only applied to the master branch and didn't yet go to any release or distribution packages. They were supposed to fix a #security issue, but not to break some binary repos, which is what the applied patches might do. Find the originally proposed and recommended patches at https://github.com/obfusk/fdroid-fakesigner-poc – and also see e.g. https://tech.lgbt/@obfusk/112306314357777113 for some additional background.
Had to go an extra loop back to the Central Station to drop my luggage. Stockholm #music venues currently don't let you bring bags even to the wardrobe counter for #security reasons.
The #Biden admin has concluded it is “reasonable to assess” that #Israel’s military campaign in #Gaza has violated #InternationalLaw, but has not found specific instances that would justify the withholding of #military aid, #State Dept told #Congress Fri.
State or State Sponsored attack on BC Government systems happened a month ago but was kept secret until this week on advice from cyber security experts.
Coincidentally, this seems to expose a gap in #Fediverse security—since right now there's no way for me to continue posting to a hashtag I use frequently and avoid this user, who openly admits that they use .social to browse hashtags and then quote posts.
The only way I can use a hashtag on this federated network is to make my post publicly visible. Doesn't that make all hashtag-based communities here vulnerable to surveillance and potential abuse?
@adnan Maybe the #Fediverse would benefit from some kind of "listed and fediverse-public but not external-public" level of post visibility that would allow people to have their posts on hashtags propagated across the fediverse and visible internally within the federated timeline but not visible via pages like the non-authenticated external search on most instances to people who are not logged in 🤔
