I don’t think he plays for either side. He’s an opportunist who was spurned by one side. Now his opportunities lie elsewhere and he’s exploiting them thoroughly.
If I had to guess, his hope is likely to do enough damage to become the better devil they know.
Everyone knows you can make more money from swindling the right than the left.
If this guy wants to be taken seriously he’s gonna have to start wearing more makeup than trump
And a candy floss wig to boot
I AM NOT A TERRORISM THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO RHIS MATTER
serious scrutiny in office
That’s okay, you can avoid scrutiny by eating McDonald’s three times a day, ending every communication with THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER, and painting your face like a clown.
I’m sure he’s picked up on these political “life hacks”.
Dumpster fire companies are the ones he’s targeting because they’re the mostly likely to look for quick and cheap ways to fix the symptoms of their problems, and most likely to want to replace their employees with automations.
Starting to think I’m a dog. Also my ears are bleeding
Lemmy android app. Not sure if it’s on iOS tbh
I’m using Boost, so I’ve been using tagging a lot. It’s useful to remind yourself whether someone routinely behaves in a way that you don’t want to interact with.
I’ve probably untagged more people than I’ve blocked at this point. People are complicated, moods change with the weather.
Also helped me to correlate that the majority of my tags were on ml users. I’ve filtered that instance and, can’t lie, using Lemmy is much nicer now.
Yes you’re right. If they knew, it would likely come with the knowledge that, if someone asks you to do this, you’re probably being scammed.
That’s what makes them most vulnerable to these kinds of scams.
Most people don’t know what a bootloader is. They still turn their devices on and off every day.
This whole conversation is about adding obstacles to prevent non technical users from doing things they don’t fully understand.
No, the certificate can be invalidated preventing future installations for other users. If you already have it you’re SOOL
Because it can be invalidated. That’s the difference.
It’s absolutely not foolproof, but nothing is. Most actions corps take for this stuff only slows down the spread. Hackers and bad actors innovate way faster than companies can keep up with. So companies cast a wide net with their solutions. And the cycle continues.
The vast majority of malware isn’t delivered via play store because of the existing measures and protections they have. Same reason you see very little app-store-based malware on iOS. DISCLAIMER: YES MALWARE EXISTS ON APPLE HARDWARE PLEASE DON’T SHOUT AT ME. Talking specifically about anything installed via first party stores on both platforms.
Their main issue is this: dumb people install apks from spurious website and infect their phones. The least controllable and most pervasive factor here is the intelligence and knowledge of the user which cannot be controlled for by Google. So by eliminating the ability to exploit this entirely, it will eliminate that specific vector.
It’s a sledgehammer solution that naturally comes with many downsides like disrupting intelligent and knowledgeable users that just want to hack around with FOSS and such.
Google is relying on It being too expensive for malware creators to have to guide each individual user through adb installation and usage process just to get access to their phone. Most scammers only do that level of interaction to extract actual cash/gift cards from the target.
I am personally and directly affected by their decision in many negative ways, but I’m not so dense as to not understand why they’re doing it.

EDIT: bots help Xitter maintain inflated usage figures which justify people’s jobs, share prices, etc. Bots are a feature, not a bug.
This is hilarious until you realise there is nothing Hasbro won’t franchise
But have you considered that Jeff needs another few billies?
Conspicuous in their, uh, inconspicuity
In my language we also have a saying: “nyeeerrrrrrr”
“How many is that exactly JD?”
“WHATEVER MAKES SENSE”
I’ve been using Metube but it’s pretty basic. Might give this a shot.
Sounds expensive too.
Ahhh, I get it now.
