They can also hijack the connection of a connected box (ethernet over hdmi) or via a connected phone (bluetooth & chromecast iirc)

Sounds like a smart move.

Yes. Separate or single disks makes no difference, it writes changes to the efi partition that bios references to boot.

I don’t know whether fedora is impacted, the article specifies the following as documented impacts

" The reports indicate that multiple distributions, including Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Zorin OS, and Puppy Linux, are all affected."

And I also note that at least 2 arch implementations are impacted in addition to that list (i first saw it on arch forums).

I would suggest you definitely DON’T assume fedora is unaffected until you check your install, fedora participates in safeboot so given all the article listed distros also do (and arch has a method for it)

Odds are they’re impacted, M$ has done a scattergun on this, the only ones you can be sure are unaffected are those still bios booting rather than uefi

No. Any efi dual boot is affected.

This post crashes me if I scroll down

Thank you

What is the difference between type 1 & 2 please ?

Lol. Yeah that was my reaction to the headline as well. “You did what ?”

Https://1ft.io also seems to work and by the branding seems unrelated to 12ft

Hmm, any connection to the “lucky rabbit’s foot” thing, or is tgat a modern invention ?

Oh there’s a long list of reasons to not use it. I use jottacloud with rsync personally. Dropbox does however provide that basic integrated functionality in a noob friendly way.

Or to take it a step further back, try getting someone without context before the modrrn era to understand how groundbreaking Casablanca is. So many tropes were invented in that movie, but watched without that understanding many would say “what’s the big deal ?”

It’s a good movie even now. But it’s a great movie with context

I can think of lots of reasons not to use it, but dropbox does what you want including shell integration it’s pretty much identical to onedrive on windows (in mint anyway, so i assume ubuntu as well)

Nope not locked. I have always on vpn (random countries) anti fingerprinting and DDG happily allows the search localisation to my actual or a different country

Doesnt this mean that you’re by default agreeing to the cookies though ? I’ve tested not responding to the pop up on several websites and they all write cookies if you don’t respond

From the article (did you read it ?)

"Many car manufacturers are selling car owners’ data to advertisers as a revenue boosting tactic, according to earlier reporting by Recorded Future News. "

So yeah at least some of them collecting it are then selling it

Clearly states in article owners can’t delete data collected

If “here” is the US, then yeah you do. There are insurers in UK, US and I believe most of western Europe who offer “discounted” insurance in return for fitting a tracking, logging device to the car.

Not really much to say is there ? It sucks.

I’d normally upvote and move on. Upvote to acknowledge that someone posted a useful article. No comment becauae it’s just another nail in the coffin. Nothing new in that.
