LIBERTY CANARY
Date updated: 2024-11-14

Cock.li is in 100% control of all of its hardware, and the service is still operating normally. The website (account registration+pw change) is currently offline.

Cock.li will shut down before becoming complicit in crimes against its own userbase under duress of any government or organization.

Cock.li is not under duress of any government or organization.

Until further notice, THIS CANARY SHOULD BE UPDATED DAILY. Under no circumstances will we let this canary go 48 hours without changing the "Date updated" above unless a PGP-signed message changes the schedule.

The schedule or PGP key used to sign this message may be changed only according to signed message from key 5CB49CDCEAC797FBF8BDC074FD71AD2771A5CC1B. Any message certifying the change of PGP key should be displayed alongside all messages signed with the new key for at least 7 days.

The schedule being changed to daily is a fairly notable departure from monthly.

Do you not understand that the entire thing is probably marketing, which you’ve fallen for? This likely isn’t new news.

If the user had Bitdefender installed, he wouldn’t be able to unzip the file because the security solution would identify the threat and move it to quarantine.

Whilst this may indeed be an attack that’s currently seeing a resurgence, the fact that it’s a marketing article doesn’t give me a lot of confidence in that.

Edit: I just noticed that your account is only 8 days old as well. I feel like that’s a further indicator that this is just spam.

Honestly, I think it all leads back to the original character limit of Twitter. It’s referencing that Microsoft is money-grubbing and power-hungry.

Mikrotik make good hardware, what are you on about?

I use Asus routers running the merlin (soft) fork of their Asuswrt firmware. There are a couple of binary closed source blobs, but the rest is open.

that would require 100% voter turnout, when the US doesn’t even come close. please try and remember that. if you go off just voting age population, only 27.18% of people voted for cheeto man. if you include everyone, that figure drops to just 20.59%.

It’s not just about your vote being secret from others though? It’s about you not being able to make your vote known to others as well!

You have to register as x or y to be allowed to vote though?? Like I knew all the other fucked up parts of the whole US system, but this just fundamentally breaks the secret ballot. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have to align your actual vote.

It’s like y’all saw us (Australia) doing the secret vote thing and thought “how could we fuck up implementing that?”…

WAIT YOU HAVE TO BE REGISTERED TO A PARTY TO VOTE?!?

what the actual fuck. how does that not subvert the secret ballot???

wait, is that name “manjarno” like when brad pitt says bonjorno in inglorious basterds??

One of their developers temporarily broke Asahi Linux.

Wait, how??

No, I also found the way he handled it really distasteful. Even before his response, just generally the way the whole thing was attempted under a veil wasn’t great. The actions taken should have been transparent from the start.

I do agree that it shouldn’t be polluting this thread like this though.

Jackass forgets that the US invaded and occupied another country for most of the 21st century.

Typical.

How am I tone policing?

Hackers in Belarus, breaking that countries train system, probably saved Kiev…

I don’t think it’s irrational to have wanted them to be transparent about it, but you do you I guess.

What are you talking about, Windows 8 was a complete shitshow. It wasn’t until 8.1 that it became respectable.

I personally think this is a cop out. Obviously people would have been outraged either way, but personally my only issue is about how it was done. The whole point of the FOSS community is openness and transparency. The senior maintainers of arguably the most important FOSS project trying to operate secretively on something like this has shattered my trust in them, as well as many others.

That’s a valid point to make, but it’s actually both. Russian athletes would have been able to compete under the IOC flag if it was just the doping scandal, from what I understand.
