Sex-ed content creators discuss shadowbanning and censorship on Meta platforms
  • Yes, but Meta/Facebook is essentially positioning itself as a monopolistic utility by buying out all its smaller competitors and leveraging itself as one of the few players in the market. There are a lot of people, who if you want to talk to them or see what they have to say, you have to get a Facebook account. This includes politicians and small businesses.

  • And in the early days of the telephone, switchboard operators would listen in on conversations and cut off anyone they didn't like. Then in civilized countries, they required phone companies to be common carriers and required police to get warrants if there was anything illegal suspected, to listen in on someone.

    Similar thing with the postal service.

  • Noob Question Thread: Ask Any Questions About Linux!
  • If they are LVM volumes, it would be possible. Otherwise, you can move the directories you want to the new partition and use symbolic links to point to the new places. Then again some things aren't correctly designed, so they may have problems with symbolic links and YMMV.

  • Microsoft waited 6 months to patch actively exploited admin-to-kernel vulnerability
  • It is part of the SSSCA / CBDTPA / "Trusted" computing initiative. The large corporations want to control what you are allowed to do with your computer. This is where the phrase "digital rights management" comes from.

  • Roku disables TVs and streaming devices until users consent to new terms
  • I have a Sceptre tv. I use it as a TV and computer monitor. I don't remember exactly when I bought it, but it has been at least several years-maybe a decade, and it works great.

    The only issue is I think I damaged the screen slightly a year or two ago while cleaning. Most of the time the damage isn't visible and is very small, so I don't worry about it. Well...and I had to replace the remote once as some buttons stopped working properly. Otherwise I have been using it without problem.

  • Training Generative AI Models on Copyrighted Works Is Fair Use - Change My Mind
  • I am no lawyer, but I suspect what will be considered either fair use or infringing will probably depend on how the programmed AI model is used.

    For example, if you train it on a book of poetry, asking it questions about the poetry will probably be considered fair use. If you ask the AI to write poetry in the style of the book's poems and you publish the AI's poetry, I suspect it might be considered laundering copyright and infringing. Especially if it is substantially similar to specific poems in the book.

  • How should LICENSE relationships be?
  • Not a lawyer and it has been a while since I studied this, but when one open source project uses another, they aren't really transforming the others code into a new license.

    When GNU/FSF says a license is compatible with the GPL, they mean you can legally use the code with the GPL. More or less, the FSF says if you use a GPL code the entire project has to give end users all the freedoms in the GPL. The LGPL is slightly different in that it can be a separate library. They consider even dynamic linking a GPL project to require both projects to be covered under GPL.

    This is why proprietary developers call the GPL "viral." GPL code "infects" all other code with its license. This is the deal you make when you use GPL code, and I think it is a fair one. You don't have to use their code.

    I suggest you read the licensing bits of the Free Software Foundation's website. fsf.org and gnu.org

    redmi 9c, how can I disable google's ad to use their voiceboard when turning the device off?
  • The real fdroid is not malware. Did you get it from f-droid.org?

    The vendor's software may be spyware and not like you using something other than the stock keyboard. Though it may just be poorly written software which conflicts. Could be many things.
