targeting a con or other small event with a bunch of fake twitter drama to help a phishing attack would work amazing against 99% of event planners.

twitter notifications in general is probably not a bad method to convince a target to click a link. wake up to a bunch of notifications about "can't believe @target would be in a video like that!" then the email with a link to the video from a "concerned friend" or the email from your boss linking to the gdoc of legal's demand you take down your horrible video etc

this industry is filled with so much fraud, bullshit, and liars and also attracts creeps and voyeurs so its a perfect breeding ground for nasty bigots to find a bunch of other shitheads to cover for each other. macafee is still a kinda cool dude to a bunch of these people...that’s indicative of how hosed everything is.

I fail to recognise the “bad practice” here. Researchers clearly asked for consent, in case of teens they have required parental consent as well, they have had clearly worded policy, they have generously paid for participation.

There is no other way to see the user experience in the whole without using VPN and custom root SSL certificate since every app is sandboxed and traffic is sent over HTTPS most of the times.

lol at getting this design irb approval at any real research organization

Remember when the media was freaking out that Bezos got hacked by a nation state actor?

Turns out the brother of the lover he was texting sold the texts. No hacking involved at all.

why would you use a stolen car for doing crimes, wouldn't you get immediately flagged whenever anyone ran the plates? or are they just trying to do crimes before the cars are reported stolen?

easiest way to get a car that’s not easily traced to you

is there any dns provider that blocks nazi sites?

I'm not sure you want to live in a country that has a law requiring DNS filtering, because it will eventually be used to block all sorts of things not originally described, there's no oversight, and even if you don't circumvent it by using any other DNS provider but the one your ISP has, it's not actually effective according to a study published a while back.
Well, that's how it worked out in :denmark:

yeah that’s fair I was thinking more just a dns provider who voluntarily just blacklisted nazi domains, would be good for the guest networks

set up your own dns sinkhole then jesus christ this is yospos not stack overflow

people were saying don’t use 1.1.1.1 because they’re not anti nazi enough so i was curious if there was an anti nazi dns option. Answer appears to be no

It's obviously not about their DNS not blocking sites or whatever. It's about their choice in clients for their paid ddos protection services. They have taken, and take money from sites like stormfront, 8chan, the daily stormer, etc and protect(ed) their internet presence. When called out on this they claim there just infrastructure and are not about censorship.

In my opinion, when you're protecting sites it's not about censorship, it's about what kind of clientele you decide to actively protect.

Cloudflare has excellent service, I just don't think that they as a company deserve anyone's patronage. I will mention this whenever someone asks about cloudflare. Do with this information what you will.

I’m honestly curious how you distinguish between Cloudflare’s services from Google or Amazon providing ddos protection?
