The flea markets at Saint Ouen in Paris are the most intense shopping experience known to man. I walked up some stairs in Marche Dauphine and told my friends, “I regret to inform you that this entire floor is vintage clothing. We may never leave this place.”

I just got a notification telling me that the “hide your check mark” feature on Premium is going away soon.

So if you have been given a check mark in order to make it look like lots of important and legit accounts are paying for this service, you can’t opt out & you can’t hide…

The Vallejo PD is bottomless mimosa of corruption.

Hid the stupid blue checkmark. It is not possible to opt out of Premium, but at least I can make sure that no one mistakes me for a person who would give this place money.

I have experimented with privacy/security advice chatbots and I have discovered that the part of my expertise I absolutely cannot replicate is figuring out what the person I'm talking to isn't telling me.

Hi! We’re confident this IS NOT a 0click attack.

It’s a bug in our phone number privacy+usernames implementation, fix coming soon.

I see that all of the cybersecurity specialists who became epidemiologists and copyright lawyers are now structural engineers.

Good good.

FFS “access to your phone is the next best thing to access to your mind” was a warning, not a challenge.

Me: I’m not a competitive person.

Also me: *setting an alarm so I can snipe the bitch who keeps taking the #1 spot in my Duo Lingo league at the last minute*

At last there is a newspaper headline about Florida Man doing something good: nytimes.com/2024/03/14/tec…

EFF's Surveillance Self Defense has launched a section on Bluetooth-enabled Physical Trackers. Check it out!

Forcing TikTok to sell to a US owner only makes sense if you think the problem is China and not all of surveillance capitalism and the data broker industry.

I have discovered something worse than people who use their phones to watch video and play music loudly in public spaces and it is the person on this plane who has the sound in her headphones turned up so high that I can hear it clearly three rows away.

From an interview earlier today:

'God, I hate that guy.'

'I promise I won't quote you.'

'Go ahead. He knows.'

If you make a commercial product that allows someone to remotely access video, audio, or location data from a device, I am begging you to threat model for domestic abuse BEFORE YOU SHIP YOUR GODDAMN PRODUCT.

Rajat Khare wants you to know that 'he did not engage in conspiracy to or complicity in murder.' Ooooookay.
