Adding

to smb.conf and restart the service.
If that doesn’t work there are a few other suggestions in the thread.
I just mean that trying to apply the Nazi bar meme to an entire country because people are not immediately surrendering and fleeing the fascists seems kind of counter productive.
Google is paying a pittance to achieve vendor lock-in.
The training may be free but there will be other services which will not be free and the other services will integrate better with the existing ‘free’ Google services better than anything else.
Who’s trying to flee? It’s the fascists that have to go
“employers and taxpayers” is like “job creators”.
They don’t want to say “the ultra wealthy” because that would be too accurate for the owner of the site, who is an ultra wealthy person.
Really? Maybe I have been missing them my whole life.
Yup, but if you try to tell the youth of today that, they’d never believe you
Worms/Scorched Earth/Liero (pixel physics!)
That era had so many good Gorilla clones.
I watched it at 11, spent half the movie thinking that I had half a medieval movie on the VCR tape (👴) because it didn’t make any sense.
At the black knight scene I got the joke and rewatched the whole thing several times a month for a while.
I’m not dead extinct yet!
It could be a distro if enough of us download it
The problem with trying to increase the signal to noise ratio is that you don’t know all of the datapoints that are being collected and some of those datapoints could be used to filter the real from the fake.
Like, in your example, if you made all of these account from the same browser then they could be linked together. If they were made on the same IP, they could be linked together. If you were using the same phone, they could be linked together. Those are just the datapoints that we know to try to protect, it’s the datapoints that you don’t know that get you.
Like, maybe your phone or desktop is screenshotting itself every 5 seconds (“for AI purposes”) or maybe the app that you’re trying to fool also secretly sends your GPS location during account creation or maybe the adversary has malware running on your PC which is keylogging you.
IF you knew all of the ways that they were collecting data on you, then you could take countermeasures. Since you don’t, you have to assume that any of your identities can be linked to your person unless you take unusual measures such, not using Microsoft/Google/Meta/Amazon/etc products at a minimum. Depending on your security needs this could also mean things like using burner hardware, non-commercial VPNs, physically disabling sensors/radios/ports, traffic/network monitoring, etc.
Yes, and some fine work as been put into making it a great choice for a webserver:
Because they were told that Trump would protect them against all of the bad things that Trump’s backers were blasting into their brains 24/7 via social media and partisan ‘news’ organizations.
Ignorance and disinformation did way more work that Trump’s charisma which is, as you’ve said, lacking
How are they gonna trace that to you?
The modern Internet is essentially about spying on you as much as possible and then selling the data to whoever wants to buy it. Linking identities with devices/browsers is worth a lot of money and so most every website/app has a way of linking you to the devices and software that you use.
Unless the user took some pretty extreme measures to create the account, they’ve likely logged in from a phone/ip/browser that has been linked to their real identity at some point in its lifetime. That link will be sold to data brokers and used to tie the random handle to you, the person. Then the State Department just buys that information.
Alternatively, you should be assuming that sovereign entities with the means are reading all public network data. There’s a lot of information that you can learn from that as well. Like, over time, the posts from the ‘random’ account could be strongly correlated to the times that you were accessing the site even if all of the data was encrypted with HTTPS.
Alternatively, alternatively. There is a threat known as Store Now Decrypt Later (SNDL). The idea is basically: Quantum Computers are coming and they can break some cryptographic primitives. If someone saves all of the encrypted traffic that they would want to read, in a few years they will have the means to read that data. We won’t know when this moment occurs, because it’ll likely be a secret, but we do know that it will happen and so you should additionally assume that anything that isn’t using post-quantum encryption, which transited a public network, will be read and used to link you to your identities.
This is, essentially, the core thing that the Privacy community is attempting to mitigate.
That’s great, it beats having to buy new hardware!
I like the part where it says people are using “The Dark Web” both within the United States and “at the international border”.
Because that would put essentially all computer crimes in ICE jurisdiction.
Psh, what do professors know
That would make sense, if it’s educational then it’s probably used to teach about the Caesar/shift cipher
There is always two, a master and an apprentice
That sounds like terrorist talk
