After my company switched to Zero Trust, I received an email with instructions and that I should print out the telephone list from the intranet in case of an #emergency. But I didn't had access to the list. So I opened a ticket. The #support sent me the list by email. When I asked, if this is how it should work now, that I can't access even the simplest documents. The answer was that I can request them via support. Zero Trust therefore means that you only have access to your own documents, and perhaps those of the project team. It's a mad world with a lot of security theatre and snake oil.

here follows a paste of a couple comments on https://www.youtube.com/shorts/TTz1dRygjvk
about #humanrights #disability #authority #freedom #access #righttoaccess #eligibility #bueaucracy and things. ... basically one of #DigitsRants
"where are your papers?"
this is maladaptive.
bureaucratic hurdles are ableist exclusionary, and cause deaths. #fittowork #averybritishgenocide remember they culled the disabled poor. as franccesca martinez got said on question time "I don't know if this is widely reported, but..." (look it up).
I am still being denied access despite eligeability to paperwork to give the bureaucratic okay for me to live.
this is not what freedom looks like. this is what fascism and genocide look like. we can build systems that provision for all our diverse needs without bureaucratic nor panopticonic top-down systems of divisive approval.
always a better way.
... is stressful having to go about knowing you may have to say a healthy hearty "F*** OFF, FASCIST!", or bow down in complicity to deepening anti-democratic totalitarianising technarchy ever harder to reason with to restore our freedom from. especially when so many around are gleefully falling for the trick of having our freedom taken away and then apportioned back to us at the whim of the arch decider of whether we get to live or die. i bet it seems like a lovely thing when it's buying trust, allowing you what was yours all along.
sorry, there are positives to that too, i'm just bitter about all the genocide and genocidal centralised lockstepping authority such schemes remind me of. that i've surviived rounds of culling from already. there are better ways. there are always better ways.
i hate that i feel coerced under duress of the situation, to participate in this race to the bottom, and to get one of these cards too, for all my needs, rather than to just have access as needs arise.
i'd rather mend my ailments, than reaffirm the dire prognosis and then affirm it again with investment of time and effort (i can ill afford) in getting the bureacratic stamp of aproval, my papers to show the gestapo.
no.
"F*** OFF, FASCIST!" on standby. because there are worse things than death, principles orth standing up for, even as all around succumb to groupthink and hypnosis from those deceivers who work in marketing or advertising (speaking from experience having been one, even tv advertising), uptonsinclairian complicit in the perverting our path from, as buckminster fuller said:“We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along and told them they had to earn a living.”
― Buckminster Fuller
but yeah, good news, in that layer of the matrix onion, the matryoshka of plato's caves, to have that handy alleviation, that handy easy tool.... albeit marred by the larger contexts, of both how far we've to go to build our facilities for each and all yet, and how far we've drifted into a totalitarianising machine that strips us of freedom and disempowers us while deceiving us it's giving us freedom and empowering us, like a more elaborate version of someone shoving you near an edge then immediately pulling you back and saying "saved you". ... but you, oh shoving bureaucratic monstrosity, ae hat shoved me in the first place.
long way to build all our facilities adequate for each and all yet.
you do look well, healthy, well lit, in a good place, in this advert though. :)

The researchers explain that the #problem concerns the systemic practice of giving #browser extensions unrestricted #access to the #DOM tree of sites they load on, which allows accessing potentially sensitive elements such as user input fields.

Nothing was #hacked. And nothing needed to be hacked: #Whistleblower #Manning had #access to all the #documents as a #US #army #intelligence #analyst.
Manning acted on her #conscience and provided docs to #WikiLeaks & #Assange after the #NYT and #WaPo didn't respond.
