I’m guessing you don’t work in corporate environment or no longer work from home.
There are times when video is expected to be on, but you don’t want to show your room to everyone.
Having said that I can’t think of firefox being able to stream video yet not being able to do this, so likely it is Google’s way to make its competitor look subpar. Probably can be fixed by spoofing user agent. Ironically the most recent change in Chrome will make this very difficult in the future.
Did you try agent spoofing (which probably won’t work in the future because of this). This sounds like things Microsoft (and now Google) does to make their product look better.
If you want to have choice in the future you should go with Firefox. Google is close to (or maybe already did) make Chrome equivalent of the Internet Explorer.
The better thing to what was with IE is that majority of websites still work fine in Firefox and people who stick to Chrome just do due to mostly ignorance.
With ISP what is really need is Local-loop unbundling but extending to ISPs.
Those that are old enough to use DSL in early 2000, might remember there was a lot of ISPs to chose from. The reason for it was that due to Title II telco companies were required to lease lines to their competitors. When cable started to be popular, ISPs lobbied politicians to categorize it under Title I which removed that requirement. We got Internet back to be categorized as Title II, but this specific rule was excluded and this is what is necessary to bring the competition.
If it is too hard, I’ll be ok if they just skip it and won’t charge it.
So who is using it? Where are tools which allow you to set up and manage the infrastructure? Why it can’t be disabled, except hacks, and one undocumented feature requested by NSA, because they did not want it running? It is a backdoor, if it wasn’t it would be disabled by default and you would have to pay premium to have that feature enabled.
Intel Management Engine is a component that has access to your computer on a level that even you, the computer owner, don’t have access to. It can be operated remotely, even when your computer is off.
And traditionally you can’t even disable it (remember, you’re not the trusted party in that mix).
I don’t really use any tool. For my stuff I use FastAPI which generates swagger UI, and when troubleshooting I interact that way.
Fascist? I was convinced it was communist, but honestly I never checked.
Why do we have fascists, communists (lemmygrad and lemmy.ml, actually many of them aren’t even pro communism as they are pro Russia).
Why can’t we have normal communities here?
All of that can be easily checked via JavaScript, but now if you world use extensions to disable those checks you would not pass the attestation.
So yeah, essentially you no longer have control over your computer, and need to bend over and accept everything the site owner wishes to do.
Does blocking ads by DNS still work? Current ads are AFAIK more sophisticated
That’s exactly what it is trying to prevent. Basically you, as an user is not to be trusted, so the website and your own computer work together to prevent you from doing anything the site deems inappropriate, like spoofing things, blocking ads etc.
It reminded me of this: https://youtu.be/dTos3CsvnLQ
Well there’s small chance someone else could get your mail, also there’s a reputation of given IP + there are blacklists that list dynamic IP ranges and some servers outright block them. And last one, you can’t set your own reverse DNS, which could increase like hood ending up in spam folder.
I did not, but it looks interesting, thanks
I use fail2ban and add detection (for example I noticed that after I implemented it for ssh, they started using SMTP for brute force, so had to add that one as well.
I also have another rule that observes fail2ban log and adds repeated offenders to a long term black list.
I think this might answer your question: https://chrisdown.name/2018/01/02/in-defence-of-swap.html (especially the tunning section)
I’m one of those people.

This is a nice read from a kernel developer responsible for memory management.
Don’t use Ubuntu, but are you sure it removed it and didn’t do the same thing windows does (i. e. hybrid suspend, where it does the same as hibernating, but then enters suspend, so if power is cut you still have your ram preserved)?
It is privacy. I don’t have mess, just don’t feel like sharing inside of my house with strangers. Maybe I’m working in weird company, but I noticed that vast majority of coworkers either have camera off, blurs the background or sets up a fake one.
