It’s already available and parents are not utilizing it.
The parents have determined that it’s not needed. They’ve determined that trying to strictly regulate exactly what Little Johnny can and can’t see online does him far more harm than porn ever could. This hyper-authoritarian nonsense needs to die in a fire.
Pretty sure the nuclear plant will provide significantly more heat. I mean, those giant cooling towers are specifically designed to unload heat into the atmosphere.
Gen X grew up with daily exposure to the highest levels of lead in their environment. Boomers had the second highest. Their mothers smoked and drank while pregnant. These generations are more brain damaged than any before or since.
Only the oldest Millennials can even remember leaded gasoline, and it was off the market long before they learned to drive. Zeds are obnoxious, but they aren’t wrong. The sooner they engage with politics, the better.
There is no indication that they can actually acquire the clear text of an E2EE communicatiom. without one of the ends being complicit in the process. There is no evidence of the fraud you refer to.
That doesn’t mean they are telling the truth, merely that they haven’t been proven to have lied. They could release their source code tomorrow. That code could prove you are correct and they are liars. That code could prove that they are correct, and you were wrong.
We don’t have to resort to unfounded claims to justify criticism here. Proving their claims to be unverifiable is more damning than failing to prove they are committing fraud.
Technically true.
However, doing so would be perpetrating a fraud. If they denied the capability you’re talking about in response to a warrant or subpoena, someone would be in contempt.
I don’t know if any corpo actually cares about such things, but I know that if you or I were to do this, we’d quickly find ourselves broke and possibly in prison.
That means there’s a software switch that dumps a plaintext copy of a supposedly encrypted message when flipped.
Kinda, sorta, but no, not really. What’s happening is that the recipient is decrypting the message. When you report the message, you include a cleartext copy with your report.
The “switch” you are talking about is in the same app that is doing the decryption. For the bad actor to toggle that “switch”, they would have to control the app.
That’s a little disingenuous…
When you send a message, no E2EE scheme can prevent your recipient from forwarding the decrypted message to a third party.
Nothing to apologize for! I wish they wouldn’t be cagey about their actual offerings. I’d recommend them more if I didn’t gain anything from doing so.
Gotcha. I’m doing everything I can to avoid spamming, but that’s kinda hard to do when OP has specifically asked for a service provider…
I know this link will work: https://my.racknerd.com/aff.php?aff=17772&pid=953
That’s for the 2gb/2cpu service I use. From low-end to high-end, pids 952 ($21.99/yr), 953, 954, 955, and 956($119.99/yr) are currently available.
What software should I use to actually do the forwarding/proxying?
I highly recommend Pangolin. It does exactly what you’re looking for: Establishes a tunnel between your home server and the VPS, to proxy services on your home network through the VPS.
It also automatically sets up LetsEncrypt certs for your web services, and provides an optional security layer so only authenticated users can get through the proxy.
You can also do TCP and UDP port forwarding for non-web services.
What’s a good VPS provider for this?
I use Racknerd. You will need an affiliate link to get a good deal. I would not recommend the services they offer directly; the prices are considerably higher. Pangolin’s quick-start guide has affiliate links for three services; I use the 2gb option. They have other options, but we’ll have to move to DMs.
The problem comes when a public school’s IT department is deciding whether to go with a FOSS option, or a commercial OS. As the IT team has full control over the FOSS OS, the school will be held liable as the OS provider. They will select a commercial OS to avoid liability under these idiot laws.
A person presumed to possess the legal capacity for consent cannot have sex with a person presumed to lack that legal capacity. The teenager is not restricted; the adult is restricted.
When a camera is added, the law becomes inconsistent. The minor lacks the capacity to legally engage in sex, but is now (potentially) culpable in their own exploitation if they video themselves.
What are you doing, Step-MP?
My state is one that has recently adopted age verification requirements. Adult sites seem to be complying through IP geolocation, requiring users in my state to establish accounts. I think they are requiring a credit/debit card on file as evidence of age, but I cannot say that with any certainty.
VPN servers in less-oppressive jurisdictions bypass the account-creation requirement.
It’s not about confession. It’s about “Jesus died for your sins”. If his sacrifice “saves” you from your deepest, darkest perversions, the deeper and darker those perversions, the more meaningful the sacrifice.
Did he die just to save you from the perils of having lusted over an exposed ankle? Or does his sacrifice cover the 20 hours a week you spend fantasizing about hot Asian femboys pounding your tight ass?
Let’s try this a different way…
How do you want to indicate something should be retained? What is the single, physical act you want to perform to tell the operating system “this thing needs to be captured”?
The screenshot folder itself is certainly not limited to just screenshots. Any file you can save can be kept in there. To my mind, the “entry point” is “saving a file to this particular folder”, regardless of the specific method used to do the saving. The screenshot is just an extremely convenient way to do that.
I just thought of a way to improve this technique with Tasker. Tasker can work with the clipboard, edit files, and take a screenshot. So, you could set up a gesture to trigger a task in Tasker. Tasker can then take the screenshot, dumping it into the folder. Tasker can then check the clipboard; if there is text in your clipboard, it can prepend it to a single “TODO.txt” in your screenshot folder.
Linux could be configured much the same way, using shutter and xclip to capture the screenshot and clipboard, respectively.
I believe the politically correct term is “Women”. They tend to bitch a lot when you call them “birds”.
