Authoritarians, having argued so doggedly for the domination of a paternalistic state and having therefore turned themselves into ideological infants, then develop a hyper-reductive view of geopolitics; precisely the one, in fact, that a state would like for them to have. - DB

In this video I discuss how Korean Telecom (aka KT Corp) deployed malware to the PC's of 600k of their customers who were using bittorrent applications to share files with one another. [Mental Outlaw]

If this checks out, and it seems to, this is the craziest shit I've ever heard of an ISP doing.

Phone Link is Microsoft's late and closed source alternative to KDE Connect. It requires you sign in to a Microsoft Account for it to work.

This means all the transactions between your phone and your PC are monitored and sucked up by Microsoft.

The only unique (I think?) thing about phone link is that it enables you to use your Android phone camera as a webcam, which can be handy if you don't have a quality webcam. I think its only in the beta version though.

With phone link I have tested the beta version and you can use your phone camera wirelessly after initial setup. At least I was able to do this using a Redmi Note 9s without any obvious issues, apart from the privacy concerns noted elsewhere.

@immibis @piracy is this an issue in mastodon that I just haven’t noticed?

It's not something I have been experiencing with lemmy - we have plenty of posts from the past 2 days here in @piracy. It's possible it's could be an issue on either end though I suppose?

Not that I know of. I'd say we are the most active community for that topic.
