While I do think CoveredCA needs a healthy (pun intended) fine, tech companies need need a serious grilling for taking this info. Not just the cost of business crap that's handed out for getting caught.

More importantly, WE need resources to notify, find and curate or revoke data about us! Start putting that in settlement clauses; I don't care about my $3.20 gift card left over and split from a class action win.

That's good news! It would be great if relays made it difficult to be targeted. I last tinkered with TOR almost... Jeez!... 20 years ago haha!

I ran a relay too way, way back in the day and I remember almost a third of the sites I used blacklisted my IP address within days. It wasn't cool.

I ended up shutting it down, resetting my cable modem, and spoofing a new MAC address on my router to get a new IP address to get everything working again.

Using a VPN is smarter. I wouldn't run that on IPv6 whatsoever.

Ha yeah. It was repainted "Black Cherry" ages ago. Really nice color in the sun.

I think the turbo is leaking oil, fouling stuff pretty quick, and I dislodged the firewall pumping the clutch so that needs a few welds to keep from flexing. Lots of stuff to do on that car, and other projects had priority.

Guess I had a different takeaway from the graphic. I kinda see that now.

Updoot.

Alrighty. I'll concede. 🙂

I also own a few classics, including a Porsche 944 turbo with popup headlights. But it stopped running almost a decade ago. Poor car.

Uh, while I also agree modern trucks are unnecessary large, I think you might be a tad lost. Your post history in this community is primarily disparaging vehicles. It's good conversation and all, don't get me wrong, but perhaps this kind of ragging feels more suited elsewhere.

About 10 years ago, I just moved and my new neighbor had an open network. Problem was they were 2 houses away and across the street. I set up a tiny repeater in my car with a battery pack and parked half way between us.

It worked surprising well for about 6 months.

Meta sued "to prevent them from advertising CrushAI apps on Meta platforms"

Dude, it's your platform, Meta. You decide who uses it. If someone is abusing your platform, that's a you problem. Vette your customers like Apple if need be.

... the exact same image containing nudity was removed as a normal post on Facebook but allowed when it was part of a paid ad.

There's your solution. Reassign a couple content moderators since they're on the ball. Much easier to review/ban a commercial account than individual posts anyway.
