This increasing interest in biometric data, not just from “X”, is concerning to say the least

Because GitHub has load balances that direct traffic occasionally through a server hosted under Chinese jurisdiction.

Where the hell did you get that from? Do you have a source for that?

I feel like this link is a scam itself lol

If you’re downloading manually there aren’t really a lot of advantages to this I think, unless you search through 10 or more sites every time. For automated downloads using sonarr/radarr/lidarr/… it’s pretty mandatory.

If your whole brand is based on being an asshole, I don’t see why it would be any different internally tbh

Maybe his 4D chess move is trying to push everyone to federated apps, what a great guy!

He’s probably having a fit over everyone blocking him from their feeds

What is with everyone’s obsession, government or company, to moderate the web. It’s seriously depressing and exhausting.

I haven’t found any info on such regulation existing

In Belgium, the RRN (SSN) is considered confidential data and its use is restricted to specific purposes, typically related to administrative, legal, or public interest matters. To ask for RRN, you’d need authorization and it’s highly unlikely you’d get it just to validate someone’s social media account.

Did they try turning it off and not on again? 🙃

I can differentiate situations depending on context

I think you’re missing context though. It wasn’t addressed in the video.

Ah thanks, I couldn’t find anything about it. I run all my stuff on a server behind a Tailscale network, so nothing is accessible without VPN access. I thought it might need connections from other instances.

It’s always been that way lol

Stay away from wiremin, this same “question” has been posted in many places over and over again and these posts get deleted shortly after. It’s nothing but a scam at this point. My comment on another of these posts that has been deleted:

The fact that WireMin doesn’t redirect to https and the contact email is some weird gmail address says a lot. I also steer away from the web3 stuff in general.

This also seems like a poor way to advertise:

From all the google results I can find, It seems whoever posts this shit has a habit of removing it shortly after and reposting it later

Google is full of similar posts, all linking to deleted posts. This is spam

Do bad thing, say you handled bad thing wrongly, hope people forget bad thing.

How is self-hosting in regards to resources (disk space, memory, network etc)? And does it need to be public?
