RFC 2182 details the operation and functionality of secondary DNS servers. Which defines/influences how resolvers behave with multiple DNS servers.

When you specify more than one DNS server for network clients, the order in which these servers are used is not random. The following sequence is observed:

Primary DNS Server: Clients will first attempt to use the primary DNS server specified in their network settings. This server is often considered the default.

Secondary DNS Server: If the primary DNS server is unavailable or unable to resolve a query, clients will then attempt to use the secondary DNS server. This server acts as a backup.

So in OPs case his Pihole will always be used if it’s available, and only when it’s not will the secondary be used.

I get the distinct feeling that the EU will have something to say about a US tech giant baking spyware into web browser that EU citizens use.

I first deployed ESX back in 2003 and from then on I was a huge fan of VMware. So, watching Broadcoms changes unfold is a little sad.

What i really wanted to ask is, for meduim to large enterprises that want on-prem infrastructures what are their options nowadays? I don’t work in this area any more so I’m out of touch.

“He failed to properly disclose”, that’s one way of saying that he bareface lied.

Its OK though he’s going to pay some of it himself so that the tax payer only has to cough up £8k.

He should be forced to pay it all and sacked.

As far as Microsoft is concerned it looks like I now live in Ireland.

As someone who is sadly no longer part of the EEA, I wonder what would happen if you selected an EEA region during install, removed everything you want gone, then set your region properly?

If privacy and security are your top priorities, which it sounds like they are, and you want a performance similar to OnePlus 8, go with the Google Pixel 8 with GrapheneOS. It’s more aligned with your need for strong app sandboxing and convenient Google services integration, etc.

Have a look at SwissTransfer. Its run by Infomaniak, and supports files up to 50gb. You can password protect transfers and set the maximum amount of times a file can be downloaded.

Alternatively you can go a bit old school and encrypt the files on a pen drive and send by courier. I still do this as I have some family with broadband speeds from 20 years ago.

Coersive Exclusion usually falls under the Equalities Act in the UK and against one of the protected criteria in the act but Nationwide Building Society recently lost a court case against them regarding forced office attendance. I don’t remember the specifics but it may he worth reading up on.

I will add, I’m no legal expert. My advice would be for your friend to speak to Citizens Advice Bureau or a solicitor to see whether they have a case.

This is more along the lines of their implementation of the Citrix Workplace App or Citrix Receiver.

This is Microsoft… What’s the catch?

This article is very specifically talking about coercive exclusion which is illegal in the UK under employment law. Maybe in other countries too.

This sort of thing needs stopped before it gets out of hand.

I have fond memories of the Internet 20-25 years ago.

How did it turn into this much of a mess? Social Media, SEO, adverts, data mining, profiling, privacy nightmares… what a shit show.

Looked into Graphene and its definitely appealing, but until i get a Pixel I’ll need to stick with Lineage.

I honestly dont know how most of us can make a move happen. Its a shit state of affairs.

I hoped that Scotland was going to be our get out of jail card too. I’m still hoping.

Sweet Jesus, it really is time to bail. Any recommendations on where to go? I’m hearing the weather is much better in France and Spain.

Is Scotland on board with this dictatorship malarky or are they fighting it? I didn’t see them kick up a fuss about the online safety bill which made it to law, which makes me think they aren’t fighting it.
