When fElon Must started talking about redditors being terrorists was the final straw, and I meticulously deleted every comment (thousands and thousands) I ever made, had like 100,000 comment karma 😔 and then deleted my acct. There is no publicly visible record my newer acct ever existed now. I miss how it used to be back in the aughts, was a seriously special place back then. The bots, and morons just got to be too much tho. I was dealing, but the last thing I'm willing to go down for is a shit load of benign but honest anti trump and must comments, freedom of speech my ass.

i had one for 11-12 years for sole purpose for a nintendo game, then i forgot i made various throwaways and sub specific accts, to avoid invasive bans, personally thier bans are way to harsh for the slightest mishapp, it all started with trump the first time around, he just made every site too overly sensitive on what they can ban. not only were they targeting "conservative trolls" but now you cant even imply "something should happen" to said gop, conservative. my funniest response i got was, your not allowed to use "black, or demographic, because that sounds racist" also if you accidentally use the wrong word like "her or him on a transgendered person". while when trolls imply violence on "left leaning " people they almost never get removed or dont eradicate that behaviour.

I'm sure that is exactly what it means. The point was to hide it a little bit, it's not the standard first.last of everyone else but to make it still uniquely identifiable as musk.

No it does not. Neither does having a password as they can be leaked or cracked or who knows what. Turning off tcmp echo on your router won't stop all bad actors but it will stop some. All security practices are just small steps to make it slightly harder for bad actors.

pivot_rootreply
lemmy.world

There is no such thing as perfect security, but there's a big difference between trying to obscure something confidential between two parties (a password) and trying to obscure information that by design must be shared with other parties (an email address).

Outside of diligently using disposable alias addresses, obscuring an email is an exercise in futility. The biggest point of failure in security is the human, and all it takes is a single person to leak it. With all the people that need to communicate with Musk over email, the opportunity for that to happen is far higher than the chance of something like someone successfully cracking a hash.

8

I 100% agree with you. But I'll also admit that I email people ALL the time and I have no idea what their email alias is. I just hit reply.

I absolutely agree with you that even with a rotation musk's email alias will get leaked. I'm just agreeing with you that it was security through obscurification and it would have worked if one of the emails got leaked. A thousand people would have tried variations of elon.musk@ i am willing to bet none of them would have tried erm71@

And let's face it that man has an auto forward on his email lmao

lemmings.world

My rule: If I can't easily write nor remember a daily password, it is crap. My strong passwords are kept in a offline password manager, which has a relatively weak master password in the vein of "R!seaboveit@ll". Not ideal, but at least a human can type it.

The real danger is going to be websites leaking or sharing the individual password it is given. So long as no one knows your (offline) manager's pass, the threat can be cordoned off. Unfortunately, we can expect the integration of AI into OS ecosystems to make that method vulnerable. Say, for example, Microsoft's Copilot or Google's Android.

To save everyone time, here's a draft set of productivity bullets for "turtle tester":

  • Conducted thorough evaluations of turtle shell durability and structural integrity under various simulated environmental conditions.
  • Monitored and recorded turtle behavior to assess mobility and adaptability in controlled habitats.
  • Ensured all testing procedures adhered to ethical standards and guidelines for animal welfare.
  • Collaborated with team members to analyze data and improve testing methodologies for accuracy and efficiency.
  • Prepared detailed weekly reports summarizing findings and providing actionable recommendations for ongoing research.

It's important Elon Musk knows these things.

Elon Musk strikes me as an individual who doesn't like turtles at all. He is therefore cursed, and shall never see the light of Heaven.

There can't be a [Removed by Lemmy] because 'Lemmy' is a federation of servers with their own rules and regulations and aren't even all based in the USA.

Nah, There’s other ways to store data while preserving confidentiality, integrity and availability that isn’t on the blockchain. Besides A public ledger connected to a specific profile could make it easier for the profile to be doxxed/fingerprinted.

Spitballing here but a service using simple key-pairs might be a better way to do this.

• Users generate a key pair client-side.

• Public key is stored on the server, acting as the user’s identity.

• To update their profile, users sign the request with their private key. (Data is signed/verified client side before submission)

• The server verifies the signature using the stored public key before edits can be made.

Because data signature/verification are done client side theoretically you don’t need a ledger, your client can enforce profile state. (Maybe an HMAC is sent with the verified data and there reverted periodically by the client)

7

Just public key cryptography. All your actual posts and comment history are already shared. What is missing is a way to authenticate yourself to anyone but your home server. If the protocol included every profile having a public key, you could then use that to authenticate to any server. And managing that private key is no more complicated than managing your private key in a block chain context.

Non public info like subscriptions is a bit more complicated, because there is an actual policy question of who you share it with. You would either need to make it publicly available, keep a copy yourself, or have your home instance give it to you/the other server at the time you want to migrate.

4
lemmy.blahaj.zone

Yeah it's nice to be able to import your list of subscriptions at least. But for comment history, I guess it depends what you're getting out of a place like this. On Reddit, I liked going back sometimes and seeing what I was posting a couple of years ago. Especially if it's personal shit, or even old review posts for movies or whatever. I like having a stable online presence or identity with a history to refer to.

2

Just allow people to bring their own IDs to servers. Self sovereign IDs, or SSI for short.

Blockchain has a usecase here, and it would be for disabling your ID in case of privkey leak, or for having people or entities strengthen or verify your pubkey or tie a hash of your birth certificate to it.

Blockchains are great for providing reliable immutable and verifiable timestamps of data. The reason they are safe is because a lot of people have tied actual value to it, and thus most don't want to invalidate the blockchain and destroy their value.

My mother was born in a basement during the bombardments of Dresden while the house above them was burning.

They had nothing but their clothes on their back and they already experienced, that nobody wanted anything to do with the refugees from the east.

Id challenge you to say that statement to an HB colleague and see how they take it.

If I could either work for 30k at home or do a 140k job abroad for 80k I would willingly get ripped off and exploited. It doesn't make it less bullshit that we don't offer such talented folks citizenship and a fair wage.

i wonder if its also true for biotech, i see a large number of listings asking for the same visas. i know indians also go into medical, and biotech too. but thier main source would be tech.

Can confirm a lot of biotech is Indian. At least where I live.

HB-1 visas. Work for Musk, and they may get to stay.

Also India is a big country. There's a lot of competition. During 2022 when we were hiring by the butt load, I interviewed a bunch of devs who were fired from other tech companies. Most of the applicants were indians and many even outright told me that they used to work 70-100 hours in their last job and wouldn't have a problem doing that if they were hired.

2/30 for an ethnic group that comprises 1% of the US population seemed a bit odd. Noticing a minor peculiarity and believing it to be negative are entirely different. What offered you the impression that I would view their ethnicity in a negative light?

Is there a service out there that's the opposite of Incogni?

I hear you. One of those 'you shouldn't have to pay for a service like this' moments.

In a moment of weakness, I signed up for Incogni. I was getting 3/4 phone calls a day that weren't leaving messages and it was getting overwhelming.

I will say, somewhat anecdotally because I'm too busy to crunch the numbers, but it doesn't seem like the spam email, phone calls and text messages I get have dropped dramatically. My wife too.

Addresses such as these are not really secret.

Does this not break the lemmy world TOS, classifying as doxxing and/or attacking a group of people?

I'm a new user and, like an adolescent being new to life, I need to calibrate my psyche by seeking out the limits of the space I'm operating in. Thanks.

These people are public officials, paid by the US government, having a public email addresses is the most common thing in every democratic country.

I don't know where you see an attack on a group of people here, but if you paid any attention lately, they are the ones attacking the population.

Welcome to the adolescent life. The world we are in right now as nothing to do with the world of the past 50+ years. Fascism is back, officials are making nazi salute, USA is threatening to annex Canada, supporting dictators, and attacking the very existence of minorities. I'm sorry to tell you, but you will have to pick a side, quickly, because some really bad things are coming up. Learn to intellectually protect yourself, Find RELIABLE source of information, educated yourself, don't fell for demagogy. That would be my best advice, good luck.

Why are we doxxing these people, theyre running the same rat race as everyone else and doing a job the government we voted for is paying them to do. Is this supposed to be a petty revenge?

They know why they are in that department and job. They want to take an active part in dismantling their own government.

Fuck these people.

Cut billions of dollars in aid to the poorest people in the world? Without having any authority to do it? An average person would stop and think “how many people are going to die from this?” Or, more selfishly, “what consequences will I face in the future if I do something so fundamentally evil?” Or, more practically, “is what I’m doing legal, and will Trump and Musk throw me under the bus and claim I acted without orders if I get criminally charged for this?”

These kids aren’t thinking about long-term consequences. They’re thinking “the richest man in the world chose me to transform America and I have to live up to his expectations”.

You've almost got it right. An average person would stop and think about shit like that. A psychopath would not.

They may be young adults, but they are still adults. Adults still go to prison for doing stupid shit that gets people killed. All of these adults are getting people killed. Literally.

You're not wrong that they might not realize the consequences. But the consequences are still real. I would much prefer that the consequences of their actions are things like cyber bullying and phishing instead of things like WW3 and yet another holocaust

Exactly. That's why making it harder for them to dismantle the government is actively helpful to multiple nations, and being able to spoof emails from others on that list is probably the best way to get around any filters. Not that I'd ever advocate for doxxing. Nope. Definitely noone should ever do that or anything else illegal ever.

Sounds like a similar excuse the concentration camp guards used after WWII

these children

I'm sorry but no. When I was younger than that I was following the news. I remember listening to Dubya and Obama's state of the union speeches and such. I remember being horrified at each war being declared. I remember how civil rights were given or taken away depending on the weather. And before that I was having debates with my teammates about religion and politics in and out of school.

All this to say, besides that I was quite insufferable and still may be, is that I was refining my values and my morals along the way. I knew what was right from wrong, I knew where the boundaries lay, and I knew that certain actions by authorities were bad. And I was damn young. I don't think I'm smarter than the average person, but I know damn well what I was thinking back then.

Don't underestimate young people. These people know very well what they're doing.

They are literally killing children and babies same as if they were standing there stepping on their little faces and leaving bloody footprints in their wake. No sympathy for child killers.

I learned about Nazis and “just following orders” before 6th grade. 20 year olds are not infants.

Pre edit: Oh, lol. I just typed this out and realized you were the same guy from elsewhere in the comments. Feel free to completely disagree with me, but I'm leaving this here for others that want to read and think.

There are a lot of great answers to the question, how about this one.

When the USA spent 6.5 billion anually (started with George Bush) it prevented 20 million people from being able to spread HIV each year. This includes to children that would be born with HIV. Now you might not have the empathy to consider investing that for foreign adults and children at the cost of double what just Elon Musk got last year in government contracts, but let's change from HIV to the next Covid. What would happen to the rate of infection globally if 20 million more people from some of the poorest countries became vectors of a highly contagious deisease? That sounds like a problem for the USA to me.
