You don’t need GPUs to do traffic analysis you just need more Five Eyes, TIA, room 641A stuff.
Oh, entirely. But that also theoretically benefits from AI: https://www.sciencedirect.com/org/science/article/pii/S1546221824004636
Hence things like: https://mullvad.net/en/vpn/daita
But further? I’d encourage you to explore what Gospel and Lavender are.
Valid and real. Good luck.
The only way the AI bubble won’t burst will be its complete integration into the military industrial complex and surveillance state, which is already underway.
AI traffic correlation for deanonymizing VPN users, ai tracking of all cellphone users across the US carrier networks, tracking of all people across all security cameras,…
This is just the beginning. And its all propped up by military spending from the US government.
“Data is the new oil” and all that? Is about undermining any 4th amendment right against unreasonable search and seizure. And AI is the latest (glitchy) tool to automate all of this.
But consumer facing side? Yeah, that’s gonna burst.
Is your country taking American Refugees yet?
But where is Palantir on this? Because they’re discernibly connected to several of these orgs, and that displays the character of what this is actually about.
Mullvad on desktop has QUIC protocol encapsulation so that wireguard just looks like normal https traffic.
There’s also shadowsocks protocol encapsulation to look like ssh traffic. And that’s even available on mobile too.
I’d love to see them audited.
Back when they were in the US, they closed shop and moved to Iceland to avoid turning over data for a subpoena.
That’s both admirable and an admission that they had longs to turn over.
But that they generate accounts on the fly like the best? Is promising in context.
You know how the US government has 3 branches that are supposed to check and balance each other? We should teach that Corporations, Government, and Individuals/Unions operate similarly.
Corporate terms of service check individuals against abusing others. So do government laws.
Government is supposed to check corporations from abusing their customers. And customer boycotts moderate corporate behavior.
And corporations… Apparently moderate the flow of information to individuals so the companies always manufacture consent. And lobby for their own advantage.
If nothing else, by describing how it is, we can have a real conversation about how fucked/okay all of this is, and examine what parts of this framework are actually functioning.
And in that, we can explore where Unions fit - as 3rd party bosses steeped in corruption, or as genuine representatives of their people. And explore how to rebound in just the one context, because we are good citizens.
Damn, that actually sucks.
Especially when virtualization options are expensive/unavailable on mobile CPUs.
Perhaps there’s this magic app called a “web-browser” I could introduce you to…
Gentoo and Arch are built to be infinitely mod-able.
Writing a patch for a thing you use at home, and wanna share it with the world? Gentoo even makes that easier. Arch stepped away from that to rely on precompiled binaries for simplicity and efficiency’s sake, but it’s still available through the ABS and AUR with some extra steps.
Nix and Guix? I’m afraid of the dependency-redundancy involved, but organizational deployments seem like the right place for that.
Serious development without requiring a dedicated machine, where all deps are accounted for? Yeah, Nix/Guix will help quite a bit. Rapid, flexible deployment of something customized and virtualized? There too, Nix/Guix.
Need some containerization or Virtualization? Gentoo or Arch already has your back. And if that’s your primary usecase, you may prefer Qubes to anything we’ve already discussed. Then again… Gentoo could use a Qubes-porting repo maintainer.
I thought SteamOS was already out
Easy to say when you have choices in where to shop. Lack of transportation and odd work schedules destroy that Real Quick. As does rural life, or life in an urban food desert.
There is more to poverty than lack of money - there is also frequently a lack of time away from work for serious food preparation. And idk if you’ve looked at vegan processed food lately but uh… The opposite holds true about their price.
No one can survive on crock pot beans alone.
Once again, 100 companies are responsible for how much of the emissions? Your consumer choices are not a Revolution that will save the world. Consumer choice is a poor substitute for activism that has been sold to you by your Masters.
Most serious vegans understand something about the differential in agency that comes with even relative poverty. The books that sort of founded the movement take this into account.
And there is a LOT of relative poverty in places you don’t normally expect, especially with housing costs as they are around most of the Capitalist world.
As a Qubes user, do I span the entire graph?
I’m open to listen for a rationale.
Oh wait, proton turned over email metadata when subpoenaed:

Sounds like we can fuzz that for some serious vulnerabilities.
Right? Arch detects all my hardware. Its my favorite Gentoo install medium.
Nice username. I remember when they got away with using that name (minus the numbers) for the handshake to WPA3, and were deeply suspicion-inducing about whether the mathematician who authored that was on the NSA payroll or not.
