I feel like I solved this situation using pre-commit git framework.

If I can find it, I’ll update this.

grep

consider looking at ripgrep and semantic search tools.

i maintain a gigantic monorepo using policies, cicd gating, pre-commit, and lots of scripting. its not unworkable, just takes process. i don’t really agree with the creators pov. but i guess i may not be a new engineer entering a team with a monolith and a bone.

a group called Youth for Climate was doing direct action in paris - occupying empty buildings near Place Sainte-Marthe to protest gentrification and airbnb bullshit. pretty standard stuff. they used a protonmail address to coordinate french cops wanted to know who was behind the email. proton is swiss so france couldnt just demand it. so they went thru europol, who asked swiss authorities, who then issued a court order to proton heres the part that matters: proton wasnt already logging this persons IP. the swiss court ordered them to start logging it. proton complied, collected the IP going forward, and handed it over. activist got arrested. charges were trespassing, theft, property damage protons response was basically “we had no choice, swiss law, we support activists but cant break the law for you.” they also quietly edited their website - it used to say “we do not keep any IP logs which can be linked to your anonymous email account.” now it doesnt say that the CEO said they didnt even know it was about climate activists when they got the order. which… okay? thats not really the defense you think it is my guy the takeaway: • proton can be legally compelled to start logging you specifically • swiss “privacy” folds when another country wants you bad enough • encrytpion doesnt protect metadata • if your doing anything that might piss off a state, use tor. proton even says this themselvs now

proton isn’t your friend I keep seeing people recommend protonmail like it’s some kind of activist infrastructure and it’s starting to bug me remember in 2021 when they handed over a french climate activist’s IP to the cops? swiss court order, data went through europol, person got arrested. this was while their website was still implying they couldn’t log you. they quietly changed the wording after they got caught and like… switzerland isn’t what people think it is. they have treaties with the US and EU, they share intelligence, their whole “neutrality” thing has always been about protecting money, not people. ask any dictator who parked their cash there also proton took VC money. it’s not a co-op, it’s not worker owned, it’s a company that sells privacy as a product. which means eventually the investors are going to want their returns and something’s gotta give none of this means “don’t use it” - it’s still better than google. but e2ee doesn’t hide metadata and metadata is often enough. your threat model matters. a corporation is not going to protect you from the state, ever

THATS WHAT IM SAYIN

If you’re interested in this, the term you’re looking for is punycode

it’s no kagi, but its ok

something tells me the genderfluid bisexual qunari are not the heros in an arab owned company

I didn’t say they didn’t do anything, bit the lies they peddle about protecting your browsing is shit, browsing is almost universally https now, you’re iso can’t see shit, except the IP address you’re connected to, a VPN just moves your exit point, that’s it, you’re iso knows you’re connected to a VPN also, btw

I didn’t say they didn’t do anything my rage is against the marketing

You sound as high as I was 🤣

i mean…

search data would be difficult to obtain for a service provider. it would require a retargeting campaign or something to extract your search values.

search data is already tls encapsulated at the browser. isp can see your tcp metdata, but not the data.

also… not the point. sorry

well, it would make no fucking difference if you had a vpn on, ALL IT DOES IS MOVE YOUR EXIT POINT. it cannot touch your browser traffic.

frustrates me to bo end the bullshit fucking ads/lies vpn companies peddle

thank you! this needed said.

• This post is a bit critical of a small well-intentioned project, so I felt obliged to email the maintainer to discuss it before posting it online. I didn’t hear back.

i used to watch the dev on mastodon, they seemed pretty radicalized on killing AI, and anyone who uses it (kidding!!) i’m not even surprised you didn’t hear back

great take on the software, and as far as i can tell, playwright still works/completes the unit of work. at scale anubis still seems to work if you have popular content, but does hasnt stopped me using claude code + virtual browsers

im not actively testing it though. im probably very wrong about a few things, but i know anubis isn’t hindering my personal scraping, it does fuck up perplexity and chatgpt bots, which is fun to see.

good luck Blue team!

fair hit. shit got weird over there. i had a lot of depression. showering was one of the signs of that. Marines weren’t big on mental health treatments that didn’t involve physical labor or a weight room.

im pretty certain dry shampoo have no surfactants, it cannot clean!

i’ve never understood dry shampoo for anything other than a one off. i used it in iraq and finally figured out it was causing me to get crazy dandruff. i talked to a corpsman about it, and they were like “just fucking shower, or stink, that shit is like washing your hands with sand, nothing is accomplished. shower jarhead.”

and ive lived that way ever since

this is what happens when 350 people make like 50 billion, fucking reality collapses and they believe they own the world
