maskenfreiheit posted:i'm guessing both? also interested in this In theory I don't dislike the idea of a whitelistable ad, given a stringent set of requirements (to be dreamed up by people much smarter than me) and continual auditing. I just don't believe for a goddamn second that an ad-maker would agree with/meet those requirements in good faith.

it's so much faster that they don't bother to check types or exceptions in a lot of cases and fill up my debug console with tons of exception logging whenever i load an SVG file, whee

ate all the Oreos posted:if it's actual quantum encryption then the idea is it's basically a very secure way to send key data, after that it's just a boring normal OTP (or a stream cipher or whatever). so basically if anyone intercepts the key data or looks at it or anything you gently caress with the quantum-y bits of the system and it's immediately detectable (in fact it completely prevents you from continuing the connection), so you cancel the transmission before any of the ciphertext is even encoded. Or just jam the spectrum or shoot a fuckin tarp or rock at it and its hacked

I desperately and unironically long for something like Contributor to be widely adopted. If micropayments via ad network buys are the vehicle that allow long promised website micropayments for content to actually come into existence, I'm 100% down. All I care is that I don't see loving advertisements, and TediousPenisJokes.com or whatever continues to make money to pay server bills

The status quo gives us malvertising, and ad revenue primarily for sites visited by people who are not smart enough to use ad blockers.

Internet ads should just be static images or text, although that doesn't solve so many linking to scam sites I guess.

Sec fuckup I just became privy to: Our ticket tracking software has an asset management component. The vendor requires a service account that can ssh into a server and needs sudo access. All their tools it runs can get the same data over snmp, but they want ssh access (hard-coded password) and sudo. They say it's safe if you restrict the account in /etc/sudoers Service Now is garbage.

My last job some VP of operations they hired insisted on buying that product and forcing everyone to use it every time we needed so much as a polite hello from a sysadmin. This was a 100 person company, so not only was it a totally unnecessary enterprisey piece of poo poo, everyone loving hated that thing.
