Technology@lemmy.world•AI agents now have their own Reddit-style social network, and it's getting weird fastEnglish
30·16 days agoLmao already people making their agents try this on the site. Of course what could have been a somewhat interesting experiment devolves into idiots getting their bots to shill ads/prompt injections for their shitty startups almost immediately.

Cybersecurity@sh.itjust.works•WhatsApp Rolls Out Lockdown-Style Security Mode to Protect Targeted Users From SpywareEnglish
18·19 days agoWhat a bizarre headline to come out days after it’s revealed Meta has been snooping on supposedly encrypted chats.

Technology@lemmy.world•Musk lawsuit over OpenAI for-profit conversion can go to trial, US judge saysEnglish
8·1 month agoMore concerningly is this going to trial in the US’ current governmental “degraded” (to put it lightly) condition. NFPs get a bunch of concessions and benefits to being such. It’s not unheard of for NFPs to have for profits subsidiaries but I feel like letting them bootstrap into FP, often on the taxpayers/states dime should be, legally speaking, a no no.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Alternative to Gmail? I currently use my own domain for email, but i miss the priority inboxEnglish
5·1 month agoNah it’s just your claim of them of addressing none of the OPs concerns and being a blind shill is objectively wrong and you’e in your feelings about that being pointed out to you.

1·1 month agoFuck that is depressing. I had hoped I’d be able to pay for a service and not worry about this shit to avoid the hassle of self hosting. Very informative thank you.

42·1 month agoOp.
can create a priority inbox without all the pesky notification clutter
User.
(e.g. you can create aliases for your shipping stuff called [website].shipping@[myalias].com and then make a rule including all the adresses .shipping to a specific folder).
I.e avoiding shipping notification clutter by directing to folders. Don’t really disagree with the placing too much trust in one company for whatever it’s worth.

2·1 month agoThanks for the links, the recovery email aspect was covered in the initial comment old mate was replying to. I was more interested in if the hand your ass over remark had anything to do with the “they cant read your emails”/encryption part. The second link is very interesting though:
After providing the activist’s metadata to Swiss authorities, ProtonMail removed the section that had promised no IP logs, replacing it with one saying, “ProtonMail is an email that respects privacy and puts people (not advertisers) first.”

1·1 month agoAlso, sealioning is “just asking questions” (JAQ’ing off). Consistently interrogating a position or POV for example, with requests for evidence. Not asking someone to provide some sort of evidence for a single claim they made in reply to another user and refusal to find said evidence for them.
Sealioning (also sea-lioning and sea lioning ) is a type of trolling or harassment that consists of pursuing people with relentless requests for evidence, often tangential or previously addressed, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity (“I’m just trying to have a debate”), and feigning ignorance of the subject matter
Emphasis mine. From wiki. I appreciate the attempt to deescalate though and accept it’s probably time to pack it in with that particular user.

21·1 month agoHow about you google burden of proof? Like the other user said burden of proof is on the party making the claim. It’s not on other people to prove the claim wrong by doing research for you.

51·1 month agoSure I saw yours and accept that, but “hand your ass over” doesn’t equate to “complies minimally with legal request they have to in order to remain functioning as a business” in my book.

72·1 month agoAre you basing this on anything? I agree with another poster that proton being the go to alternative is somewhat suspect in my paranoid brain but some of these remark here seem pretty outlandish.

171·1 month agoOne of these can just be solved with a mailbox rule within the email client itself for what it’s worth. Make a rule that’s based on keywords in the subject line and have them moved into a folder that you clear out every couple of months. Downside is the email client need to be running/opened for it to process them.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Xitter warns of a series of sexually explicit content manipulations on "Grok" and threatens legal action, including permanent account suspensionEnglish
8·1 month agoWeird thing to go to bat for but the emphasis is on material. Even if it’s generated or drawn if it depicts CSA acts it can constitute CSAM and is even treated as such in a lot of jurisdictions. Though generated more so than drawn due its appearance of being genuine. It feels like saying “this isn’t porn of Y celebrity because it’s fake”, but it’s still porn.

4·1 month agoThe more you know, cheers for the links! The out-competing native animals angle makes sense and I wouldn’t have thought of. I have to admit, I would not have called hedgehogs being on the list lol.



Fun fact: the choreography was far easier for the prehistoric sea monsters to learn due to their inability to metabolise LSD.
