💸 eBay impulse control challenges 💸

Look, look at these. They're beautiful, they work, they could be mine! Yet like with all vintage window shopping that occurs on eBay when I'm in-between tasks or relaxing, I just have to remind myself that there are already plenty of unfinished projects in my purview, and to just finish something equally fun from the FIFO queue.

oooh but it's so difficult! 💝🎁

At EFF we spend a lot of time thinking about the tech used by police and authorities to spy on you while you’re going about your everyday life, like cell-site simulators (CSS). Rayhunter is an open source tool we’ve created that we hope empowers everyone to help search out CSS around the world. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/03/meet-rayhunter-new-open-source-tool-eff-detect-cellular-spying
