Honey pot?

Not sure. Most hardening configs disable this afaik but would need to verify

Firefox autofills username and password by default!

I thought browsers stopped doing this years ago. Don't you have to confirm before it autofills forms like that?

They have lots of jpg artefacts because they are heavily compressed jpgs. Nothing you can do about it except finding the uncompressed original, which would have a much larger filesize.

As far as I recall all pixel images in PDFs are jpgs. So they will all have varying degrees of artefacts.

it's karma for the rootkits from 25 years ago. lol

It has been really satisfying to follow this development. Sony fell into hubris and shall now pay for it.

Interesting, yes absolutely. Somehow it works, but who knows? Windows is so permissive and users are just used to pressing ok in the big admin popup. Apps shouldnt need that access! Adobe also doesnt work if you enable filesystem access restrictions in the security settings

I know way back in the day before any of the cloud stuff, the free trial system used to raw write to an unused area of the filesystem structure near the beginning of the drive in order to mark down unremovable details about the trial so you couldn't just free trial over and over and over.

So I wouldn't put it past them to have a similar fingerprint written somewhere otherwise inaccessible.

Do the right thing. Use FOSS.

It is back online FYI

Um . . . not familiar with this . . . ? Sounds scary maybe

EDIT: Ah, I see. Scary acronym. I need to self-criticize now because of a bourgeois and improper reaction to SLUM. Well, live and learn . . . 🤦‍♂️

Did you look here?

Sounds like the SA dude was the only thinking individual on stage AND the most observant one. Who tf invited the other child-minds ?

Any way of letting the AA crew know about these issues?

Yes and despite changing nothing it only happens sometimes. I can wait an hour, come back, and it works again. No idea why.

I do get better results on my pc though

I've got a VPN and am using Mullvad Browser, any issues there? It keeps asking me how damn high the stupid fluffy little animals are jumping, over and over again . . .

I'm having that problem on my mobile's Firefox browser, but not on my laptop's. My impression is that there are two problems:

1. There's a first computing-based check from Cloudflare. The mobile is too slow to pass it in time, so it's redirected to the captchas. My laptop is fast enough, so I don't see captchas there.

2. Something with Ublock or Firefox's Enhanced Tracking Protection or similar settings breaks the captchas. So I'm stuck in a loop. Though I heard other users who were not stuck even with ETP and Ublock...

Maybe worth trying to access via Tor Browser, or a clean profile on Firefox.
