@eff Interesting, but the main points against ZKPs could be clearer.

Just to make sure: the main downsides are centralisation and expected shittiness of underlying software, right? With more issues stemming from those two root causes.

Did I get it right?

@AlexanderMars @davidrevoy @datarama Or AGPLv3 or later, to scare off corpos. Then offer a separate commercial license.

@davidrevoy First of all, you need to contact The Linux Foundation, otherwise they will not realise you are upset at them.

Second, Linux and TLF are two different things and likely only the former cares about your tablet driver contributions unless the manufacturer of those tablets is a TLF member.

Third, I suspect this is a result of one employee's decision because likely TLF does not have any internal AI use guidelines. That brings us back to the first point. Complain to them.

@0xabad1dea Or just straight up slap Mickey Mouse on it 'cause a pirate is free.

@noelreports That second image made me exhale through my nose.

@davidrevoy @mousey This is nothing, check out this news: europol.europa.eu/media-press/

7 people, hundreds of thousands of SIM cards, more than 49 million online accounts. Gives you the sense of scale. Now think about how many fake accounts nation states can create and use. Those accounts need fake interactions to appear real. Such accusations are an easy way to get those interactions.

@noelreports It's possible the cruise speed is different from attack speed.

It's also possible the official numbers are inflated.

@yoasif @FirefoxOfficial I specifically wrote "most users stayed on X" because it was about X users, not all computer users in the world.

I don't think anything changed, it's just PR speak. I believe what caused this return is realising their reach on Bluesky is much smaller than the reach they had on X. The reach of both combined is even higher of course.

Good sanctions should harm the target but not yourself. I think Mozilla realised it did harm itself much more than X.

@exitcode @FirefoxOfficial Compact mode was never removed, just hidden. Add "browser.compactmode.show" to about:config to unhide it.

@yoasif @FirefoxOfficial Unlike other browsers, they tried boycotting Xitter and moving to Bluesky. That didn't work out as most users stayed on X. The goal of social media presence is to educate people and attract new users and since the users are on X, Mozilla has to catch them there.

X is a terrible platform. I hate this move, but I understand why it was done. I'm glad that at the same time, Firefox stays on Bluesky and joins Fediverse.
