A lot of nice sounding words when it’s really about employee monitoring and control.

This is bad news for Linux developers at work. One reason for wanting Linux is to get rid of all the privacy violating corporate spyware. Now corporate forces this spyware on you, or you can’t access any corporate resources from your machine.

Have fun developing when you need to start worrying what sudo commands you run, because some raise alerts in IT.

I hope someone reverse engineers mdatp and documents how to limit how much of your privacy it can invade. That shit needs to be jailed into namespaces that are limited to absolute minimum necessary.

So, how many of these Rust “rewrites” have kept the original license?

Arrrr, they don’t.

What about false positives? Or a process to challenge them?

But yes, I agree with the general idea.

Can you please add the company name in the title? If you want to keep original title, you can do it like this:

This printer company [Procolored]

I highly doubt this kind of processing is legal in the EU without both parties consenting.

In Finland recording calls and meetings you participate in is legal, without need to give notice or ask for consent. And necessary, because spoken contracts are as valid as written ones, and you need to be able to prove the existence of such contract.

I haven’t heard of any EU countries where call recording would not be legal. Would be interesting to hear from people who live in EU.

I look forward to Digital Wellbeing.

Considering this won’t hit stable distros any time soon, any recommendations for alternatives?

Any sources for this?

In what way is Tuta’s encryption better?

How does it compare to OsmAnd?

Learning to read manpages is honestly the best advice. They are pretty dense in information, so maybe that’s why some people go to great lengths to run circles around them looking for inferior sources of information.

Does it support flashing from web browser?

You can start with dpigs. Then start marking packages automatically installed with apt-mark. aptitude may be a good frontend when removing a lot of packages, you can mark entire categories, like libraries, as automatically installed.

Pay attention to the package headers when removing packages. You don’t want to remove essential packages.

Most likely after rebooting but before unlocking the decryption key is not present in memory in plaintext.

What kind of setup do you guys use to sail the high seas?

I don’t know what kind of architecture web.archive.org has, but when it was offline, I thought that we should really have something distributed that would allow people to store and host a copy of all websites that are important for them.

Nah, it’s still considered Personal Data under GDPR, because it’s possible to connect to natural persons. So GDPR applies. And this is illegal, there is no legal basis for processing this data.

Release submissions should really include a description what the project is about.

Can you find any links where one can read about this?

If Finland is wasting tax payer money to something shady, it should be brought to the local media.

As a finn, I understand that there are probably legal reasons for doing this.

I just wish they would be transparent and share those reasons with us. The Linux kernel is certainly not the only free software project that is impacted, if this comes straight from EU/US sanctions. Maintainers of other projects have a lot of interest in what is happening.

Transparency is also important because if EU/US policy/sanctions are causing issues for free software projects, then that discussion needs to be public, so that there is a chance to amend the policies if necessary.
