You mean South America?

One of the famous mantra’s of that party: the market will regulate itself

HTMLLoad blocked, here is an archive link.

Who would have thought that package repo concepts with automatic fetch during build could be a security risk?

Static linking makes this worse.

Granted, static linking for web apps is great and far better then the alternatives.

But now we deliver static linked desktop and system packages. The security nightmares just began (looking at you canonical)

On some days I wish back the ASM times. 3 chars that’s enough for a variable name. All those modern 4 char names … Pah … /S

This not look that way to be honest. I see the marks from the cutout of his image. I can not see any artifacts. Does look like his thumbnails look since a while.

Oh, Russia responds?

So. You tell me Russia did not start killing civilians?

Ok, watched that video. Not a single word how that makes slop not a single example about slop.

But a pinned sponsor comment. How nice. Such hypocrisy.

To make content is a risky Business. Having private capital helps a lot. Having someone else that takes care about sponsorship, copyright issues and other legal stuff takes a huge amount of pressure from the content creators.

Wanting content for free, blocking an skipping ads, but expecting the creators to do that shit without major income?

And this shit is paramount here. As long as we have no basic income or do not life in a world where everybodys needs are fulfilled and money is obsolete content creators need an income.

I did not watch this video yet, can somebody explain why fern is up their own that thumbnail?

Fern, yes, got bought our and afterwards published their piece about “How isreal murders journalist”.

Is this just another “private money == bad” video or is there some real substance in it?

100% Agreement

I use the German digital id since years. Without enforced Google.

Because the German (older) app does not depend on it.

So no, that’s not true. It is an assumption and pessimism

You have to enable it. And I would love a dedicated switch.

Currently, you need to enable third party install sources.

And one could argue that the fact that most people will not enable developer mode is a clear sign that this is a protection.

In my very very personal opinion: people that do not want to enable developer mode should maybe not install apps from third parties. Developer mode itself unlocks a few switches, and none of them is enabled per default. This is a pretty safe action IMHO.

There is a way to avoid this, but this is the device owner mode. You need an app that takes full control over device ownership, and those apps are allowed to do anything including installing any app.

One example is OwnDroid.

An opensource app that is signed by a dev and allows to manage install sources would be a working solution with better security.

If someone builds it

Proven right with what? To be clear; I can not see in the future and if member states copy the EU implementation 1:1, then at least we can fight against it in that level. Because, an implementation relying ok US Google would violate multiple European regulations.

But as it seems, misinformation and propaganda won, facts are now subjective and we just give up and bow to big corpo, because those shit hats profit from exactly this kind of bullshit.

I had a good look at the process. And yes it is not very convenient and or course it is not just to protect users, that is a secondary marketing effect.

I completely lost this view after all those heated debates, thanks.

As long as people claim that F-Droid will stop working and other stuff, based on the initial plans, I classify most of the debate as fear mongering .

And good luck and fun with your new setup. I still have an original OpenMoko, to bad GSM is dead here.

And, thanks for the debate.

Final try, this is the official new workflow from Google.

Did you know this existed? Are you aware while not very convenient or restores the full sideloading functionality once you went through this process?

What the fuck are we even debating about if facts, provable fucking facts, are ignored

How do you now that?

Again, the ability to install a completely unverified APK is used in real, successful, attacks.

The user DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING! That is the entire point!

If users would know what this is and understand, maybe it would be less if a risk.

Maybe look at other threads here where I debate the actual issue. An actual debate.

I’m leaving Android over this. I doubt I’ll be the only one.

Good! I hope alternative mobile operating systems get traction out of this!

And again, there is no verification need anymore! That is exactly why I am so pissed about this debate in general.

Is the workflow simple? No. Is the 24hour period comfortable? No. Do I understand why? Yes, but one or two hours would be enough
