Yup, you are right. Phones will keep collecting data point. It will upload as soon as it gets connected. But location can still be provided near realtime via Bluetooth on newer Android and iOS devices. This will happen even if device is offline.

Scammers usually try to target 🎯 gullible people like old people. Usually people who don't understand what's going on.

It's highly likely that these laws will be passed because more people are voting for right wing leaders in EU, Right wing heavily supports this. If EU sets the example soon the whole world will follow.

Doesn't using a particular wordlist limits choice, gives attackers a wordlist to generate the password from

Does this mean hackernews & cloudflare are colluding together?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 5 months ago (5 children)

I really love cloudflare especially for my hobby projects but in this case they asked for outright Ransome. From this I learnt to keep Nameservers & domain sellers different. I am going to transfer domain away from nameserver.

I already know OP is talking about carrier unlock and I have also mentioned in my comments above. PIN unlock was just an example.

If nobody would do it. Why would company offer it? If it was indeed an anti-theft company should have informed the original owner(in their record) and should have denied any unlocking. If it was real anti-theft why would they provide app to unlock carrier.

Let me give you an example of actual anti-theft feature. Apple will not unlock iPhone, no matter how much money u try to pay. That's an anti-theft feature. T-MOBILE has history of excess charging customers. This is plain & simple business tactics to earn more money. As OP @[email protected] told T-Mobile's official app is dysfunctional. That app is dysfunctional, so people can't unlock themselves.

This is not an anti-theft process. This is just way for companies to make more 💰. T-Mobile is allowing him to unlock 🔓 after he pays them some cash. It like company is happy to let anyone steal , as long as they are paid.

There’s an enormous and largely invisible campaign to use fraudulent notices under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act to remove critical articles from the internet. We don’t know who is running the campaign, but we do know it’s facilitated by Google’s amazingly trustworthy approach to DMCA complaints made by companies that don’t exist.
