[NEWS] Unique 0-click deanonymization attack targeting Signal, Discord and hundreds of platforms in c/opsec@lemmy.zip
[–] Carbophile@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 months ago

As of the time of posting, there are no remediation measures available to end-users. We have to wait for a patch from services providers/Cloudflare.

This shouldn't cause too much of a problem, as it only rounds your location down to the nearest Cloudflare data center.

YOU CAN, HOWEVER, AS ALWAYS, USE TOR OR A TRUSTED VPN PROVIDER TO CONCEAL YOUR LOCATION.

I will be updating this comment as details emerge.

The Europol chief said that in a digital environment, the police needed to be able to decode these messages to fight crime. “You will not be able to enforce democracy without it,” she added.

"Anonymity is not a fundamental right,” she told the Financial Times.

After thorough discussion with Oliver's PR team, it has been concluded that he is so beautiful his every appearance is a debut.

Hope this clears it up!

[NEWS] PSA: RUN YOUR OWN MONERO NODE in c/opsec@lemmy.zip
[–] Carbophile@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

This post isn't meant to promote Monero but to serve as a PSA to people already using it and those whose threat model requires it. While it can be incredibly useful when anonymity is required, it's far from a perfect currency, at least in its current state of adoption.

I understand your aversion to crypto and even agree with you in some aspects, but some people simply don't have the luxury to use fiat currency.

I clocked that right after I posted. Knew it was just a matter of time before someone commented this.

A leaked video from Chainalysis has shown they have delivered on the IRS's $1.25 million contract to trace Monero.

The good news is that their tracking heavily relies on you connecting to a compromised node.

The (debatably) bad news is that you need to run your own node to ensure privacy.

Review the linked video from Mental Outlaw (I love that guy) for more information.

Hmmm, strange. It's working on my side.

Take a look at this article from Wired (which I would consider a reputable source).

For my Ryzen 9 7950X3D, should I get a 360 AIO liquid cooler or a Noctua air cooler?

Even though Bluetooth is designed to be secure, vulnerabilities can sneak in. We saw an example of that with the Flipper Zero being able to spam Apple devices, and while that was relatively harmless, that doesn't mean the next vulnerability will be.

Honestly, I'll take anything over those outsourced call centers at this point. Half of those representatives barely speak English.

Liquid cooler for 7950X3D (lemmy.zip)
 

I'm looking for a standalone liquid cooler (not a custom loop) that can keep a 7950X3D cool. I would prefer if it had one of those customizable screens that displays the temperature and for it to not break the bank since I'm already over budget.

Not the kind of data loss we are concerned with. As long as his data doesn't reach a third party, we are happy.

Well, you guys won. Copypastas are now allowed as comments if they are related to the post or parent comment. However, they still can't be posts.

Rule 3 has been updated.

As much as I would not prefer this, we are a community and not a monarchy.
