Health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s advisers ordered the release of a dataset that includes the private health information of people living in California, Illinois, Washington state, and Washington, D.C., to the Department of Homeland Security

Yarr citizens of the high seas! The Stop Killing Games movement is still ongoing and we've recently had a second wind. It's within reach!

We're all lovers of media in here, and games currently have no safeguard that guarantees that they won't be locked down long after being released and abandoned. If crackers help us, they can still be played long into the future, but many times there isn't such a possibility, specially in multiplayer games.

This initiative seeks to change that by mainly:

• Disallowing planned obsolesce in paid video games. (Ex: By disallowing phone-home based DRM after the game reaches end of life. Like in Ubisoft's The Crew)
• Ensuring that paid multiplayer games can still be reasonably played long into the future. (Ex: By releasing relevant server hosting software)

Die Petition ist dafür gedacht Legislatur in der EU zu schaffen damit Konsumenten besser über die Laufzeit von Spielen informiert werden. Also EOL (end of live) besser informiert wird. Damit Besitzer von Spielen wissen es gibt ein Enddatum des Spiels oder danach die Möglichkeit selbst die Server zu betreiben. Wer noch weiß wie gamesspie hunderte Multiplayer unspielbar gemacht hat weiß worum es geht.

More than half of Americans believe that Immigration and Customs Enforcement has gone “too far” in its pursuit of arresting migrants, according to a new poll.

While 54 percent said ICE has used its power too aggressively, the sentiment was even greater among Democrats at 83%, according to a poll by PBS News, NP and Marist.

Nearly half of Republicans, by contrast, said ICE’s actions are appropriate and an additional 31% said the agency had not gone far enough in enforcing Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda.

The vast majority of Americans (80%) support the U.S. government's deportation of migrants without permanent legal status who have been convicted of a violent crime.

Im April ist es Cyberkriminellen gelungen, aus der Ferne die Abflussventile eines Staudamms in Norwegen unbefugt vollständig zu öffnen und für mehrere Stunden unbemerkt geöffnet zu lassen. Als Angriffspunkt wird in einem Blogbeitrag der Cybersicherheitsfirma Claroty ein ausgespähtes und als unsicher eingestuftes Passwort vermutet. Zu Sachschäden oder einer Gefährdung der öffentlichen Sicherheit kam es wohl nicht. Der Wasserabfluss lag zwar durch den Angriff um 497 Liter pro Sekunde höher als der vorgegebene Grenzwert, jedoch war es für das Flussbett wohl keine große Herausforderung, diese Wassermenge zu bewältigen. Dort sollen insgesamt bis zu 20.000 Liter pro Sekunde hindurchfließen können.

I have always used Mullvad Leta as my search engine, but after changing smartphone and download Fennec, I ended up leaving DuckDuckgo that comes standard for now. However, after the last Fennec update (140.0.0), I was surprised to have Google as a standard search engine. What do you think of this? Someone with this same experience?
