They’re exposing themselves to risk. Fortunately for them, they dont care about protecting the data of their customers.

+1 puppy

Lol since forever? It doesn’t verify the authenticity of anything it downloads, so its vulnerable to supply chain attacks.

Pip and crates has the same problem.

Maven is the only programing language package manager I know of that does. Otherwise, OS package managers like apt are secure, od course.

If amazon sold stolen credit cards or murder-for-hire, would you say “that seems like an options feature that I won’t use”?

No, because things that are designed to cause harm shouldn’t be tolerated. We have enough problems with misinformation here. Let’s not encourage tools that make it worse.

Except it harms our ecosystem?

Well, no, but I use it for free.

Because backblaze doesn’t let you maintain an account balance, I almost had all my data get deleted one time my credit card false-positive blocked the payment (for “my protection”).

I ended up getting a credit card specifically for B2. I use it for nothing else.

Turns out some credit card companies dont charge you anything if your bill for the month is <$1. So, yeah, I accidentally get backblaze for free.

Do you mine? Always sounded like the best option if you dont have a friend in another georegion to replicate-to

You can get append only backups on backblaze with their lifecycle rules. So that can have ransomware protection too

This. Install a NAS in a friend’s house, give them 10% of the capacity as a thank you.

One of few ransomware protected solutions

Backblaze 200% of the time.

The only thing that sucks about backblaze is that they’re not designed for enterprise. No account balances. No multi users.

I mean if you dont want to see cat pics, ask mods to ban cat pics. I’ve never seen a cat pic in my Lemmy feed, but I do occasionally see pictures. I report them to mods for deletion.

How is that not a duplicate?

Gross. It uses AI to publish bullshit.

Do not want.

That’s a bug. We need dedupes in our feeds

This, but with some aggregation and filtering.

Wait till you see how Lemmy and piefeed are installed. Its a security nightmare here on the fediverse.

Hashcash predates crypto currencies

Any reason you prefer this to mCAPTCHA?

Best is to redirect them to a 1TB file served by hetzner’s cache. There’s some nginx configs that do this
