It’s related to Firefox, and Firefox VPN is a Firefox feature. It does not apply to Mozilla VPN, which links to a separate policy from its home page, which indeed does mention Mullvad.

And no, you never consciously initiated a service agreement with Fastly, and so its policy doesn’t apply. The policy of the service you choose to use applies, this doesn’t have to be difficult.

I’m not going to crawl through the notices now, but e.g. the Firefox Privacy Policy says:

To perform the purposes listed above, we work with partners, service providers, suppliers and contractors. We have contractual protections in place, so that the entities receiving personal data are contractually obligated to handle the data in accordance with Mozilla’s instructions. Learn more.

This includes Fastly (see also the Learn more link). That is the policy that applies, not Fastly’s own policy.

Je moet de subsidie voor huiseigenaren (de hypotheekrenteaftrek) toch ergens van betalen he…

I don’t think Fastly’s Privacy Policy is relevant here, as you’re not entering into an agreement with Fastly. The Firefox VPN FAQ states:

We collect technical data needed to provide, maintain, and ensure the performance and stability of the service, as well as interaction data to understand usage of the feature and help guide improvements. For example, we may log whether a connection succeeded or failed, or record that 2 GB of data was used on a certain day.

Importantly, VPN never logs the websites you visit or the content of your communications.

Other than that, I think it’s the Firefox Privacy Policy that you should be looking at.

Also worth noting is that, when I review Privacy Policies, I distinguish between sharing data to provide the service I’m signing up for, with the only allowed use being providing that service, and sharing data for other purposes. The former is basically unavoidable for any online service, whereas the latter is often shady.

Daar hebben kleine bedrijven die dingen moeten vervoeren in kluswagens niet zo veel aan, en dan gaat een kleiner deel van dat geld naar de mensen die echt krap bij kas zitten.

Ik vind dit pakket maatregelen niet eens zo slecht klinken. Maar ik was vooral bang dat ze weer een brandstofaccijnsverlaging gingen doen die ze niet meer zouden kunnen afschaffen, dus mijn verwachtingen waren ook niet heel hoog.

It’s making fun of people getting all worked up about their (extreme) idea of feminists. Usually, they’ll also picture these straw feminists as not wearing bras, so presumably they’re lurking at the training bra section to prey on young children about to get their first bra.

docenten op middelbare scholen gebruiken kunstmatige intelligentie (AI), bijvoorbeeld om toetsen na te kijken. Daarbij gaat het niet alleen om antwoorden op meerkeuzevragen

Dat mag ik hopen, dat kon al lang, en deterministisch, zonder AI. Ik ben eigenlijk verrast dat @[email protected] zegt dat dat prima is.

Ik geniet wel nu al van het idee van de eerste leerlingen die prompt injections in hun antwoorden doen 😂️

Staring straight into @[email protected] comics’ Galbor month.

That makes sense!

That sounds like exactly what I meant; where the GPL is viral on the project level, MPL is viral on the file level. So if code, under MPL, is added to a file, that whole code becomes MPL.

AFAIK MPL is viral, but only at the file level. In other words, if you modify an MPL-licensed file, your modifications need to be MPL-licensed, but if you add additional files, those can be a different license.

(In practice, I suppose that that’s fairly weak?)

Wait a minute, what is the Flatpak Nvidia package? Do you need that for GPU acceleration for Flatpak apps on Nvidia? How do you even know whether GPU acceleration is working?

(I recently got a new laptop and it’s the first time I have a dedicated GPU, and I have no idea how it all works. Sorry for hijacking your thread.)

Ah yes, so many classic songs in the genre! There’s 🇩🇪️ Scooter, 🇧🇪️ K3, 🇳🇱️ De jeugd van tegenwoordig, 🇫🇷️ Poisson Steve…

That would’ve been awesome if Lemmy had done that automatically, for lazy folks like me 😅️

Oh sorry, I was hoping Lemmy would just bring up a profile page. Theoretically that should be possible and would actually be an awesome Fediverse feature, but reality is a bitch 😅

“The government should prevent people from seeing this” is promoting censorship. Suggesting people ignore something is just a boycott.

I don’t have a Linux phone myself, but from all I’ve read the Furilabs FLX1s is the most “Just works” Linux phone today that runs a community UI (Phosh+GNOME). Supposedly it runs Android apps well, and regular Flatpaks.

I think Jolla has a more custom software stack, but it also supposedly works well.

Oh sorry, that might have been projecting - it’s what I want to believe.

That’s true. If they’re not, though, or if they’re easy to generate yourself, then you are kinda forced to pay attention though, if you care about the security of your project.

I don’t have the expertise or experience to say whether that is true. But GregKH seems to think so, and other prolific projects seem to be coming to the same conclusions.

I get that it’s attractive to think that AI isn’t capable of it. But it’s important that what you believe to be true is, and stays, based on reality rather than on what I wish is true. And it’s especially important to be wary of when you really want something to be true.

If these tools are indeed finding security issues, then ignoring them means someone else will find those issues - and abuse them.
