bazingabot , to Privacy in Meta Pauses AI Training on EU User Data Amid Privacy Concerns

Meta tells that it pauses it...but do you know for sure? Basically, you can't trust anything they state.

Maps is admittedly a google service I actively use because it really is reliable and up-to-date for navigation, so this is good news.

I love Timeline when I'm traveling. It's great to be able to remember all of the random wandering in foreign cities. I've seriously considered printing and framing the timelines, but it's difficult to crop them so they all match.

At home, I'm far less comfortable with it.

Probably due to an EU regulation

I think it might be also related to the new tracker stuff.

jam12705 ,

Definitely wasn't due to US "regulation"

sunzu ,

Is this US regulation in the room with us right now?

They’re using scanned documents as bait? Wonder where they got those. My of them happen to be dated between 2016-2020?

Spice Rat and Sugar Ghost was one of my favorite Hannah-Barbera cartoons.

Dendr0 , to Privacy in Warning: New Adware Campaign Targets Meta Quest App Seekers

So you mean to say the device made by the company known for harvesting userdata for advertising purposes... puts you at risk of being served more ads? Gee... who'd have seen that coming. Malicious or not, it's not really all that surprising.

“…….The company expressed disappointment at having to put its AI plans on pause, stating it had taken into account feedback from regulators and data protection authorities in the region.”

I don't see how this is possible. The router has EIGHT aerodynamic antennas.

Maybe they should have added one or two more..

mox , to Technology in TP-Link Gaming Router Vulnerability Exposes Users to Remote Code Attacks

Pro tip: Avoid routers with proprietary firmware.

OpenWrt is a nice alternative that can be installed on many devices.

ThrowawayPermanente , to Technology in TP-Link Gaming Router Vulnerability Exposes Users to Remote Code Attacks

Don't ever buy anything marketed specifically to gamers

Sylvartas ,

As a "gamer" and game developer, this is sound advice.

laurelraven ,

Yep.

At best, you're paying extra for RGB lighting.

sum_yung_gai ,

But what about video games :(

Plopp , to Technology in TP-Link Gaming Router Vulnerability Exposes Users to Remote Code Attacks

Leaving consumer routers behind and going the pfSense route is among the best decisions I've ever made. Highly recommended for anyone who isn't afraid to learn some network stuff.

qjkxbmwvz ,

I went with "cheap mikrotik router + cheap used enterprise APs (3x Aruba 325)," and I've been pretty happy.

What hardware you running for pfSense?

Fungah ,

Setting up a pfsense router / firewall virtualized in proxmox on my server PC with separate vlans for my iot devices and guest WiFi was tedious, time consuming, challenging, educational, and ultimately worth it. I'm not invincible buy at least I have fucking viability into what's going on in my fucking home network.

Talaraine , to Technology in TP-Link Gaming Router Vulnerability Exposes Users to Remote Code Attacks

lmao just bought one of these last week! Glad the fix is already out.

And no, I didn't buy it for its looks xD It's actually a decent router that does additional things I needed.

megaman ,

Inside me there are two wolves, one that thinks "gamer" stuff is stupid, and another that thinks this router looks sweet as hell.
