Yes, to a freedom fighter software developer. Good news for law enforcement agencies, only 0.5% of the population is a software developer.

Especially the idea that somehow Fly.io wouldn't keep track of which IP is signing up for service - kind of important, constantly, for CSAM investigations and the like.

Okay, then the service running on Fly gets hacked, and gets the same blame.

"They don't know who hacked them? Malpractice. What if it was the government?"

Because, to be honest, the number of people who care about binary blobs can probably fit in their headquarters.

Are you kidding?

Small businesses getting blocked by Gmail, Twilio, etc. for legitimate activities is constant.

I think what's interesting, and what our grandchildren will look back on, was how naive the early internet was. There was almost this sense of "the government is powerless" whether it be piracy or jailbreaking or casual death threats [8647 style] or who knows what else. Combined with also a sense that devices will always be exploitable, there's always a way around, resistance from government and corporations will always be futile.

Yes. They're operated by big tech and called C# or Java.

Chainguard most likely interpreted Calif's dancing anime girl video as a script kiddie who had found a POC.

So if I'm understanding correctly:

1. There was a leak of the pre-announcement

2. Calif sees leak, goes and releases dancing anime girl video before pulling it, goes viral

3. Chainguard sees dancing anime video, doesn't recognize Calif, and thinks the exploit is in the wild

[Edit 3a]: Or alternatively, Calif's leaked video causes the PoC to be found by others by providing enough of a lead

4. Chainguard releases updated binaries thinking it doesn't matter, causing the real exploit to then be found early

5. Which then causes PHP Foundation to basically have a meltdown

Personally I blame Calif for the unprofessional video which absolutely completely looks like some script kiddie and for being too detailed [edit 2: assuming Calif produced it and the anime wasn't a prank edit]. In this case it wasn't just unprofessional fun but may have literally messed up the responsible disclosure.

Nah, if it becomes law, we’ll get apps which just call a number for you and run out the clock.

I don't care whether or not DHH is a racist. He can't stop his project from being forked or exert authority over anyone.

I care about people who think that just yelling "he's a racist" somehow scores them brownie points or does something about it. It doesn't. You're not brave, you're not noble, you're not accomplishing anything.
