    Ruh roh - major security flaw in Linux for MIPS kernels between 2001 and 2016 - executable stack. MIPS powers a lot of devices such home routers.  
    Also 'none of the routers made consistent use of basic software safety features like ASLR, stack guards, and DEP - features'. Literally the Internet of Shit.

      A look at home routers, and a surprising bug in Linux/MIPS
      from Cyber Independent Testing Lab
      We reviewed 28 popular home routers for basic hardening features. None performed well. Oh, and we found a bug in the Linux/MIPS architecture.

    @bob Their algos are not so "smart" but then again, with advertising the inferred profile doesn't have to be 100% right, it merely has to be better than a random scattergun approach. Unfortunately, some applications try to infer political affiliation, race, gender etc. and extend the application beyond merely flogging tat.

    @bob The 'that will go unwitnessed' is why they can probably get away with it, unfortunately.

    @bob @ekaitzzarraga @aral @paul @measlytwerp Open about:config, search for all settings with 'http' in them, delete the string. (Except maybe for update notifications.)

    I think this is illustrative of Mozilla's general approach.

    And indeed it might not be currently active and might just log locally. If so then why call it telemetry instead of a log file, which is the standard terminology for local monitoring?

    Also it might be harmless now, but maybe a few versions later...

    1. Support Telemetry with lots of output by TimNN · Pull Request #645 · rust-lang/rustup.rs
      from GitHub
      This implementation first writes all output to a temporary file, before processing the output from the file. Tested on OS X. fixes #639.

    @moonman Just part of the dumpster fire that is python. Don't even start talking to me about deployment to other environments. (Oh, all the libraries you use are incompatible with the system ones, and some don't even compile on this platform.)

    @maiyannah Have to agree, unfortunately. It's time like this when I mull switching to links/lynx and just ignoring all sites that don't load with it.

    #Cloudflare is blocking me again. Asks me to tackle a challenge that requires #javascript to get past, basically making my surfing a lot less convenient, far less secure, and making the Web a much more dangerous place. Webmasters, boycott CF.

    On the EFF stuff about pushing companies to stand with their users it's worth remembering that after web 2.0 the user was no longer the customer and so the business incentives changed massively. Encouraging companies to go against their customers and side with the users is always going to be a very hard sell.

    So if you want to pressure companies in this way you'll have to pressure them to change their business models. Doing anything else will just be like deckchairs on the Titanic.
