  • RISK-V and ASML have been targeted by them in the past to prevent Chinese use.

    reading the broad points regarding RISC-V, I think my worst case scenario is apparently just the present day.

  • but then the project loses momentum, the userbase fragments, opensource projects are fragile as they are mostly volunteer work; I guess the discussion of government threat and overreach towards opensource projects is mostly discussed in the context of cryptocurrencies and other 'disruptive' software

  • Its just an analogy, imagine you take your horse for a health check up and the insurance company directly asks the horse about your riding habits

  • Reminds me of that story from reddit where op caught a falling microtome blade and suffered from blood poisoning because the nurse messed up his blood types

  • Skill issue

  • But seriously where is that logo from?

  • El Psy Kongroo

  • The code did have a fi at the end, i am using fedora.

  • but there is no such directory

  • I didn't deny it; its akin to a first year med student reading about all the subtle little ways that the body hints something is majorly wrong and noticing symptoms exhibit in them, I guess i am just not jaded enough to accept that online anons can just send a swat team to my house if i comment on the local weather online.

  • Welp repressive countries have more stringent teams of computer forensics experts now. Though compared to our neighbours i wouldn't call my country repressive(yet)

  • Feasibility aside, the shitty laws in question attacks content hosting platforms first(safe harbor laws). So no matter how many vpns i hop through, the site would simply limit the visibility of my post in the region and go about their day.

  • Honestly i believe there is no point in speculating whether there are backdoors installed in popular privacy and encryption apps; for all we know, the powers that are may already have a digital fortress'esque quantum computer decrypting everything from your signal messages to onion sites in a matter of seconds.

    I think(my personal headcanon) that there probably was a Manhattan project like top secret research project that has yielded some very fruitful results, now i guess we have to just wait for some whistleblower or a disgruntled employee to feed it a file that blows it up.

  • I would assume that because it is a popular open source software relied upon by millions that it theoretically shouldn't?

  • Then doesn't that mean that the guy was somehow shortlisted and handpicked to be served that honeypot link?

  • Mental Outlaw and seytonic on YouTube usually provide pretty good coverage.

  • Doesnt the prevalence of https solve this issue?
