And then you get idiots that will tell someone that is not American : "uh why do you care so much about our election, it's not your country"

Well yes your (vice) president is starting to extort the rest of the world before even starting his mandate...

My strategy with paywalls is to close the tab and go somewhere else. It works fine and is a great way to let the website owner this bullshit make them lose viewers and visibility.

Isn't your password manager tied to an ecosystem with Bitwarden ?

I'm surprised people trust third parties to hold their passwords.

Wasn't there multiple password managers that got powned over the years ?

If you can sync Passwords you are also more exposed than some unhandy secure local password storage.

Honestly, Apple was for years very anti-repair.

So the manuals are nice but that doesn't absolve them for the decades of products designed to be hard to repair on purpose.

I won't go full Rossmann but seriously Appol very bad when it comes to repairability and reliability. But they can release a few manuals and they are absolved for their bullshit?

It's a start but Apple still makes purposefully hard to repair products.

It could loopback to you...

the commercials that have already been paid to the company are still showing, so that ad revenue is still being capitalized.

That's not how it works though. You are not accounted for watching the ads over a pirate stream...

Honestly, don't give them ideas...

If a business quite literally controls a country we are fucked.

I stopped using Signal when they dropped SMS support.

It's a great project but with very bad leadership and strategy.

They definitely had the best shot to secure communications and wasted it.

Also people regularly spend more than they can afford.

When you think about it the fact that you can quite easily borrow money you clearly will not reimburse which is kind of an infinite money Glitch for capitalism.

Thanks ! That's exactly how I think it could be implemented but that confirms that this is certainly not something you can find commonly where I live.

That confirms the fact that if you use the same wifi and everyone has entered the same encryption key then there is no real client isolation...

It's cool that wifi keeps evolving. It comes a long way from the WEP beginnings.

Do you have any documentation on how this work ? Is there a name to this special protocol? Is it a recent addition to the wifi standard ?

Again a wifi AP doesn't send data to a specific client. So how does an AP can enforce that one client can't read a frame for someone else that is properly authenticated? How would an AP prevent someone spoofing mac addresses from receiving that data ?

I'm really confused by this feature I never heard of even when I was playing with aircrack and so on. Yes sometimes your mac address can get filtered but even that is not really difficult to avoid.

Sorry I have so many questions but I honestly did quite some "tinkering" with wifi years ago and none of this sounds familiar.

I have no idea what this client separation is.

As far as I know there isn't really any client separation on wifi. It's a shared medium.

At least I don't see anything preventing you from reading someone else traffic. So anything unencrypted on a wifi is also accessible to any other clients.

I had tools more than 10 years ago that could automatically hijack session cookies on wifi for anybody connected and not using https.
