Certainly they have not at all stopped misinforming people. There are also still elements that promote hatred.

Yeah but at least that organization has not ever instigated a war, right?

If you actually read his github you would know that there is a different version of the responsible component between the recovery environment and an installation. Only the RE has the issue.

I’ve read the XZ vulnerability. The very same thing can happen in a closed source corporate project. There are many arrests of foreign intelligence agents that worked in big tech amd/government. It would of course be easier to cover up. As would vulnerabilities discovered by ai, since they can limit who can check their code.

Were they the developers of the ssh package? Microsoft is the developer of the vulnerable bitlocker package and the ones who chose to ship it.

I am employed, most employers are obviously not as corrupt as the biggest corporations on the planet, they simply can’t afford to.

I agree we can’t know. We can know for FOSS software. You are treating uknownable as being less than the known bugs in Foss software. That’s dishonest, lad.

What are the indications that the BitLocker vulnerability is already being utilized?

Microsoft shipping a vulnerable version of the recovery environment. It is the ‘exploit’.

Alleged by a guy who was fired from Microsoft. I’d take that with a pinch of salt.

Such is the nature of closed source software. You select people who will remain complicit till they have a grievance against you. Even if they don’t and talked for moral reasons do you think they would not been fired for it?

That being said, open source repos are being attacked constantly with attempts at intentional malicious code injection - I’m sure you’ve heard of XZ Utils? How many others went through and are being exploited without anyone noticing?

Who knows. How many more went through at closed source software a limited amount of people can test in the same way?

They will be patched. There is also no indication that they 'be been known and exploited till recently.

This was allegedly deliberately non patched to be exploited.

Getting a system without bugs and security issues is impossible, you can at least avoid intentional compromise.

Unfortunately not, the main reason the majority of people use gmail is that they don’t even know there are other email providers.

Yes, I specified which cover since it’s certainly been covered by more people.

So any passionate actor is a bad actor. Which is necessary for wrong information to be disinformation according to your definition.

I will argue that a disinformation campaign could find agents that are able to remain calm and engage in ‘polite’ debate (via training, scripts and other forms of support, perhaps AI can help write some posts/articles etc). Meanwhile ordinary users are more likely to lose their cool when presented with propaganda even if it is well presented.

I am also going to address you suggesting that I believe most information is “arbitrarily” subjective. I don’t. The issue is that of course we cannot actually apply the scientific method in a lot of cases, including news and politics.

For example either the US attacked first or Iran did in the most recent case. How would one apply the scientific method to find out? In a lot of cases there is simply not enough data accessible to people.

Even in science, both physical and especially social ones we have this issue. We don’t really do experiments on whole countries etc.

I think you are handwaving away the issue. I am sure you know who the bad actors are and what is disinformation.

For starters we need someone to set what is a good or a bad actor, what is misinformation and what is Truth.

I think it was accepted in systemd. There was no commit in the kernel because such things are really don’t belong in the kernel.

But the law it was a response too is horrible. If any ‘app’, regardless of it including any unsafe content (or content at all really) must ask for this information from the OS. Otherwise the developer and/or controller (which can be whoever installed the app) is liable for thousands of dollars.

This only makes sense if you think the only ‘apps’ that exist are ones written by FAANG.

Which move are you referring to? Because most of them include far more than that.

It’s not the new name but an alternative. I guess it will have to fit where GIMP does, so it’s better to have the same amount of letters.

Glimpse is already taken by an abandoned fork that simply changed the name.

ΟΥ in Greek makes sounds like oo as in look,wood etc. It does not lead with a γ sound that would make Uranus sound naughty.

Of course it should also end in -os as -us is a Latin ending.

You keep access to non-verified apps no matter what Google wants since it uses microG.

It’s openness vs security.

Treasonous bought cunts.

I think it’s on Google Play services so you need a rom with microG services.
