Eppur si muove


Also known as "Top Gun"


Just because we can!


Where we are going, we dont need no time. :P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26aUmDvDROE


I strongly believe that theres no freedom of speech without the freedom to replicate that speech.


In 2011, I blogged this: https://web.archive.org/web/20130501172236/http://www.fernan...

I found the "leak" with a right click in my own data (images), then I changed the params in the URL without being logged in and it worked. Fingerprints, Scanned ID cards, Photos, and Signature, of millions of Argentine citizens. When I changed the ID in the URL, I used the ID (found in public sources) from a guy named like me. When I saw his face, ID card, fingerprint, and signature my jaw dropped. Years later AFIP took over the control on .ar TLDs (NIC.ar) and for strange reasons I could not renew my domain. :) Ten years ago. Its all leaked. Or at least we should asume so.


Just yesterday in the discussion of Internet Archive, a user made this comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29639814 I truly wonder if Internet archive crawls this and recuses to delete it, whats the implication. Since its public now.


A large number of people mistakenly upload identity documents to AirBnB. They aren't hard to find.

I assume those people were trying to provide the documents for account validation, but they end up making them public.


You are overthinking here:

1- Actually, the main problem with privacy is that most people still doesnt really care and many more underestimates its current reach, if this were somehow to happen, proably it would raise awareness and that is of topmost priority. 2- Its is already mindboggling. 3- A spy needs privacy to spy.


It goes further than this. Most people know about Airbnb creep cams. Everyone cares about it when asked. And yet they are still a huge problem because they are so easy to hide.


No to mention that it would salt the earth :P

How is this relevant to the conversation? Did you see salt grain and assume it was a dupe?


> How is this relevant to the conversation?

Presumably in the "how large do you want the salt grain to be?" sense?


How do they taste?
