And how do they make their money?

Because hosting shit yourself isn’t free, and most people aren’t up for taking financial losses for their projects.

and the government would have to explain precisely why they decided to ban all Google services over a song about freedom.

They wouldn’t explain shit. This is an authoritarian government we’re talking about; they have near total control of what information gets to their populace.

More likely they’d just accuse Google of supporting terrorism, and make a show of raiding their offices and jailing their local executives.

I don’t think the people in charge would last long if that happened, considering how integral Google’s services are to many people’s lives.

This is China we’re talking about. Chinese equivalents to nearly every big tech service are more than present and accounted for, even often preferred by the local populace. Hong Kong is a little different, but the CCP still exerts near total control there.

It is literally either follow this law or cease operations here. Both would end in the song being blocked anyway.

Mind you, I wish we were that level of strict when it came to our data privacy laws.

I dunno, why don’t you ask, eg: Russia?

Because by law in certain countries, homosexuality is persona non grata, and a filter needs to be there to legally operate in such countries.

Yep! Such container breakouts exist even today in Citrix !

Shit like this was what got me into cybersecurity

I learned to program when I was 10 on a Commodore 64. And we would wear an onion on our belt which was the style at the time… Sorry, where was I?

Totally get that, but we live in a much more dangerous and predatory computer landscape these days. It would be foolish not to take some precautions.

Standard Ubuntu should have you covered.

One word of warning though, don’t be too egregious with the parental controls. If your kids are motivated enough, they will find a way around it.

Education really is your best weapon here. Tell them about the dangers of the modern web and computing.

They’ll try, I’m sure. Tesla and law abiding don’t go well together.

Yet.

What they mean is if you are a affiliated with a national government. You might also be a target if you are very very rich.

If you’re an average Joe, they probably won’t burn it on you.

I mean personally I think it’s closer to those point and click adventure games, just shrunk down to be appropriate for a handheld of the day

Android’s Do Not Disturb feature is also like this. You only get notifications from calls, alarms and apps you specifically allow.

There will always be garbage, pants-on-heads stupidity on these platforms. I doubt the women saying this even believe what they are saying, it’s all to drive engagement via outrage

Then give them a URL link to a good instance.

Do you really expect Threads to provide a fair, uncompromised experience of the Fediverse when it’s actively against their interests to do so?
