Did they actually do anything beyond using goldberg fork? Haven't heard that "DenuvOwO" ever did anything special, I mean, they even have a Discord server
Yup, I have goodram as my RAM. Works just as well as any other RAM.
I'm pretty sure there are actual manufacturing steps going on in Poland and it's not just some labelling. Sure, not the silicone but there's more to RAM than just the chips.
Changing the TOS is explicitly allowed. You can refuse to accept the changes but then the company has the right to end their relationship with you (i.e. terminate your account).
There are also strict limits. Something like: "Your account may be terminated for any unspecified reason" is illegal, I'm pretty sure.
And the recent DSA of the EU has further limited social media company's rights to terminate accounts. I believe they must provide a way to fight terminations and listen to your arguments. Other countries may have similar laws but I cannot speak for them.
Banning clickthrough contracts would genuinely break large parts of the internet though. No more online purchases for one, including anything from Steam to Amazon.
It's much more complicated than that. Social media platforms have a TOS that binds them just as much as the user. It's literally just a contract.
The social media company also has much more limited rights to terminate such a contract than the user. At least that's the case in countries with any consumer protection.
That's how YouTubers at least in Germany have successfully forced YouTube to reinstate their channel. YouTube failed to prove a violation of their TOS, therefore the contract termination was null and void, therefore the contract is still valid.
There is no contract when you have entered a restaurant. After you ordered your food, there is a contract and you cannot be kicked out for arbitrary reasons anymore. If you are kicked out for no reason, you can sue for damages (but you cannot force the restaurant to enter any new contracts with you, e.g. another meal).
There are hardly any population centers that reach the lower temperature while there's a shitton of them that reach the hotter one. That should say enough about how dangerous and inhospitable each is.
Yeah, that's again a little different. You have to fully trust WhatsApp that they are doing what they promise. You can't really verify this yourself.
Besides, if the app is open source, backdoors are generally more difficult to implement. Especially for something like E2EE, where people look very closely at what the application does with keys. Same with age verification in my opinion. You'd need to pull off a lot of gymnastics to put in a backdoor, see the xz utils one which was only achieved through several obfuscated stages in a codebase rarely ever looked at by another human.
Does that name have a feminine/gender neutral association in your language/culture? Feels like a Greek masculine name to me. As in: Alexis Tsipras, the (male) Greek prime minister.
So they simply scrape post decryption from the user's device.
As far as I know, no social media company's posts are E2EE. After all: It's not possible to have both public posts and E2EE. "Direct messages" to other users can be E2EE but you'd have to trust the company with the encryption keys.
The only condition that requires Zero-Knowledge Protocols to function is that your device is not hijacked by hackers (and there are no deliberate backdoors and such). This can be achieved by having the app be open source with regular security audits. The social media company can do nothing to identify you, nor could the government (unless again, they collude and share secrets).
But yeah, social media can already identify most users because of surveillance capitalism. The goal however is to ensure identification is not in any way made easier via age verification.
Why would an optional field have a default value? Shouldn't it just be unset?
