On the Internet, Trust Should Not Become Centralised

“Trust” is a word that lost its meaning in the era of “TPM” and fancier names for 'Palladium'; we need to reject this idea that computers need to check with Microsoft if the operating system is trusted (not just Windows!), check with Gulag/Chrome...

Correcting Error 402: Rethinking The Web And Monetization

We're excited today to announce that we've received a grant from Grant for the Web to create a content series on Techdirt exploring the history (and future?) of web monetization, entitled "Correcting Error 402." We'll get more...

#clownflare is a company that ought not even exist, let alone be embraced by anyone. #cloudflare is an ATTACK on the #www and the media isn't talking about it... (what's left of the "media")

Today's #www is inherently incompatible with security because Web browsers are allowing remote sites do far too much on one's computers https://www.theregister.com/2022/01/17/safari_15_indexeddb_bug/

Whoever once had the address "mim@mcom.com" has a vast and extremely enthusiastic botnet trying to crack their password on mcom.com's (nonexistent) IMAP server, from 20,000+ unique IPs in the last 30 days.

Never give up hope, it might work some day!

Though I am impressed by the IP space they control, I guess.

Previously, previously, previously, previously, previously.
