So what’s the story behind this ? They’re a cult ? 👀

They WILL use locational data against you if your phone is on, Even if it’s off

Based on what I know, this can be achieved in two ways:

  1. SIM card: it records your location all the time, so they can get that from your phone company
  2. request it from Google or Apple ( that’s why you should degoogle your phone )

If you remove the SIM card and don’t connect to any hotspot ( obviously ), then your phone is just a camera, but the issue is that you’ll want to broadcast live, so you’ll need an Internet connection
 So

Twitter alternative Post News is shutting down (www.theverge.com)

Post News, a Twitter alternative that emerged in the wake of Elon Musk’s takeover, is shutting down. Noam Bardin, the platform’s founder and former CEO of Waze, writes that Post News “is not growing fast enough to become a real business or a significant platform.”...

Exactly
 đŸ€Łâ€Š Been looking for Social media alternatives for years and never heard of this one before

Tab Stash because it organizes Tabs in a tree style side menu, it’s awesome

If you really want to run Linux : Distro hop

@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

Yeah, that’s what I i did, first tried Nobara, I liked it but encountered some issues, tried to fix them but I realized I spent too much time and there’s no clear fix, so I hoped on Fedora and everything works nicely, exept for the Multimedia drivers which I’m still trying to fix


electro1,
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

It’s the stupid US patent law, and they don’t wanna deal with any “legal” issues, showing you how to install those drivers is how far they can go
 But this is Exactly why these drivers are broken, they’re not well integrated and not tested by Fedora devs


That’s why Distros like Ultramarine promise you a working Fedora experience OOTB, because they’re not US based and such laws don’t apply to their software

@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

Oh, Thank you very much multimedia playback behaves weirdly on my machine, I’ll try these fixes and let you know

find the storage module in the phone, hook it to a PC and extract its data

I thought this would be one of the potential solutions, for it because the screen is just gone, and they’re scarce
 But like you said they have to be really good

I hope it’s not encrypted

It runs a very outdated android, I’m not sure about the state of encryption in such devices đŸ€·â€â™‚ïž

Can you see what’s on the screen or is the screen display broken along with the digitizer?

No the screen is broken like totally gone, it glitches and it’s 95% shattered, it only lights on and the phone doesn’t even vibrat to indicate “something”

It’s been a long time since I’ve used USB OTG

Oh, so
 I guess that’s why
 yeah
 Like I said, Android will ask you : what you wanna do ? And you have to select ( transfer files ) otherwise it won’t give you access to it’s local storage


electro1,
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

The screen is completely shattered and glitching, it won’t work unfortunately


electro1,
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

So yes, just hook it up to a laptop and use the MTP connection?

File explorer detects an empty drive, and asks me to insert a drive
 Screen interaction is required with this one I guess

I’m using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed now (btw).

I wonder why people don’t say : I don’t use Arch BTW
 ?

electro1,
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

they do, ever since Signal blew up companies started lying about E2EE left and right

electro1,
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

I’m not so sure about that

Edit : it’s becoming the new dystopian trend now

X automatically changed 'Twitter' to 'X' in domain names, breaking legit URLs (mashable.com)

On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some https://twitter.com/t3dotgg/status/1777425000133468582 began https://twitter.com/___frye/status/1777432913497465082 that posts https://twitter.com/__justplaying/status/1777433986500853845 via X for iOS were...

X is just a BAAAAAAD brand that it’s almost insulting the people who uses it, honestly were I’m from it sounds like an adult website

second, because there is no one else to pass the project to.

If I ever maintain a FOSS Project this one will be one of the things I need to figure out along the way, surely there’s someone trustworthy out there, surely

electro1, (edited )
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

But why take a chance?

This could be a simple answer as : I don’t wanna cause inconveniences to my users to a more complexe one such as
 umm, ideological reasons
 I don’t want to see a project I started get archived or taken down


Let them prove themselves.

It’s a requirement


to me finding mainteners is part of what makes a FOSS project successful

electro1,
@electro1@infosec.pub avatar

Indeed, or buying-off other maintainers and making them turn against you 👀, it’s crazy world we live in and everything goes

I’ll give you a better one, we should have a community to share assumptions/theories of how we came to exist, the comments here are wonderful
