IPv6 usually have unique IP addresses (non-local) for every device in the network. does that mean it will malicious actors can target a device specifically inside a network?

This is going to lead to a lot of harassment and stalking. The sender or receiver could use the numbers to find people on whatsapp, signal or any other social media app that allows users to link their contacts.

This is scarily creepy.

It is safer than not updating at all. Unsupported devices have a lot of exploits and vulnerabilities.

I registered with a VoIP number that a free app gave me. I doubt they're blocking all the freely available "temp sms" numbers out there.

it's always either a hit or a miss. The player UI really needs to show if the instance you're streaming from is online and working or not. Otherwise, you just keep waiting for the loading to complete, but it never does and you go the the preference to check and the instance isn't up anymore. You change it back to another instance, go back to the player, check again and change instance again until it works. Then sometime later the same thing happens again.

Newpipe mostly always works and is good enough for me.

These articles are very easy to write and you can see how emotional people get. You don't need proof and it always works.

Everytime there's an article about what "China/Russia/India/North Korea/or Whatever Says", social media goes:

haha, so fake!

fake news

imagine believing this

propaganda bs

where's the proof?

we only believe in hard facts

no credibility

chinese/russian bots brigading lmao

astroturfing

And then whenever there is "US Says"

so true

I know someone who knows someone who was doing this

I had a gut feeling about this

The boogeyman is real

They're stealing our tech

They're coming for us

We have to renounce them

They're destroying our economy

Enemy #1

They're ruining our western values

US is numba 1

NO FUCKING PROOF REQUIRED!! Anyone questions?

why would they release the evidence, it's classified

I mean fuck all authoritarian regimes, but it's funny to see how social media (especially in US) reacts to these articles and riles them up. Also great for election season.

Standard hypocrisy from propaganda rotted brains at work

That is even worse, they knew they were compromising privacy and still boasts about being privacy centric. It's like Saudi Arabia claiming to be a utopia while actively using modern slavery in the background.

Apple and Google are both guilty of this. Frankly, however, neither of them are particularly “guilty”,

Google doesn't claim to be a herald of digital privacy, nor its users claim Google is a saint.
