They are unknowingly benefiting from a lot of prior work upstreaming support for the rk3399, mostly because of the pine64 pinebook pro which also uses that chipset. Any random newer ARM chipset probably wouldn't fare this well, but it's good to see that that upstreaming work is benefiting the whole community not just pine customers.

edit: Looks like one of the key people in making that happen is in this very thread! Hi Megi!

>The owner of a Jewish deli shouldn't be compelled to hire a formerly convicted neo-Nazi.

Who cares if they were convicted? That detail is shoehorned in here to make it sound like a good example when it isn't. Neo-nazis are not a protected class, and so the deli owner would be entirely within their rights to not hire someone on that basis, with or without a conviction on their criminal record.

And honestly how often do they get convicted of say, a hate crime, that might show up on a background check compared to the number of neo-nazis in the country with clean records, or who get acquitted, etc.?

It also hides what URLs you visited. Depending how the hosting is implemented, just being able to see the IP, or even the domain name, wouldn't show what you were doing, but if it's in plaintext, they can see exactly what pages were visited and files downloaded

This is the most interesting way of doing it I've seen. How would this be configured/the scripts distributed?

I'm guessing that would scare the crap out of the masses. Security by obscurity may not work but if there ever were a glitch or breach it sure does look bad to say "and they knew about the bug because we made our codebase public"

Not ironic in the classic sense but it is a humorous coincidence, and it says a lot about Facebook's ubiquity.
