These aren’t regular people, these are navy soldiers on a high tech warship, I have to imagine their IT would know how to find rogue wifi APs.

You could easily scan for hidden SSIDs. It might not show up in your phone’s wifi list, but that’s by design. The traffic is still there and discoverable. Even with an app like WiFiman (made by Ubiquiti).
Just like in this case, it isn’t straight forward. She wasn’t simply “letting her friends use it”, she was selling use of the trick.
Let’s be real, no matter how you’re watching YouTube, if you’re accessing the video directly and not cached through a third party server, Google is still tracking you.
Getting Home Assistant to play nicely with Google without using their Nabu Casa service definitely is a hurdle, but once you get over it, it’s super nice. I ended up just blocking Google DNS inside my network to force all the Google home devices to use my internal DNS to fix the https/hairpin NAT issue. It wasn’t a big deal since my kids are getting older and I needed to block outbound DNS in general since they’re getting savvy enough to get around my content filtering.
It’s quite convenient, at least on the Google home. I could just share an album with my mom and MIL, set up the album to automatically populate with pictures we take of our kids and they get to see the latest pictures we’ve taken right away without ever having to touch the device or really do anything other than take the picture.
It worked really well when my MIL lived in a different state. They got to share in the memories that were happening 1000 miles away in almost real time without having to beg for pictures every day.
Yea, that’s more or less the same cost a fully loaded i5 would be in the US. Works out to be about 15k more than the normal 5 series, more or less.
Currently only Ford and Rivian can use Tesla chargers in the US. BMW, Mercedes and a bunch of others have announced partnerships with Tesla late 2023 / early 2024 but they haven’t released the adapters or technically allowed to use it just yet.
I’m absolutely in love with the i7 (the 7 series in general), but the i5 is the closest I’ll get and even then it’s really hard to justify since I really don’t drive a whole lot.
It’s something I’ve been considering getting but the one thing that really gets me about it is it’s essentially an ICE car with its engine swapped out for a battery and electric motor. It’s so big and heavy.
I haven’t gotten to test drive one yet, so maybe it doesn’t feel as bad when driving. I know not really the same class (though surprisingly close in cost) but I’ve been leaning towards the mach e GT (one thing Tesla got right is their supercharger network and Ford can take advantage of that).
I’m also half hoping they come out with a sedan built from the ground up as an EV. I considered the i4, but at that price there’s a lot of great cars that would probably be better.
Did your company buy them or lease? I don’t think I can bring myself to actually buy an EV. I’m still not sure how the battery will be in 10+ years.
I have young kids in school currently. At the open house, that’s the very first thing they asked.
To be fair, lots of students mess with subs. It’s possible the sub assumed the kids were fucking with them.
That’s not how it would work for us. We’d receive a report from the MPAA/RIAA that showed the torrent they were downloading, the IP address involved, if they were seeding or leeching and an affidavit saying that all the information was correct to the best of their knowledge.
The letter we sent basically was a notification that we received that letter (with a copy) and that if we received two more for the same IP (three in total) we would have to release their information to the reporting body and that they could be open to legal action. It also included some information on how to secure their network and check for viruses in case that was the cause.
In my 15 years working there, we never once released information about a client. Because this was business accounts, most clients had multiple IPs (at least a /29) and would cycle what IPs they showed up as on the public Internet to keep them from getting multiple notices on the same IP. The music venue I mentioned had an entire /24.
I had to process these requests at a company I used to work for. They do send “proof” (proof in quotes because you have to believe in good faith they didn’t just make it up, which I have to believe they didn’t).
We never shut anyone off though. We worked with business exclusively and only ever sent “scary” letters. Though we had one client that was a major music venue (a very known venue that’s pretty famous) who would get these letters all the time. The irony was too much for me. I ended up calling them personally most of the time because it was too funny.
People who made accounts before they start charging will be grandfathered in for free.
They are the wrong one and died. The police came and arrested them for murder.
There’s also how much of a pain that would be for the end user. Would I have to create new accounts for all their services? That would be a mess.
Probably, hopefully, who knows for sure. That’s the problem with using an open source project run by a corporation.
Google doesn’t sell user data, they sell user eyeballs. There’s no incentive for Google to sell user data since they’re an ad company and the only people who would buy the data are competitors.
Here’s the concern with Brave since it’s Chromium based:
For as long as we’re able (and assuming the cooperation of the extension authors), Brave will continue to support some privacy-relevant MV2 extensions—specifically AdGuard, NoScript, uBlock Origin, and uMatrix

People have been saying Green Day aren’t punk since Dookie. That’s always been a thing with punk. Once you leave the underground clubs of NYC, you’re pop.
They’re not hurting the people they need to be hurting.
