It's reasonably common if you take any kind of privacy preserving actions or really anything that makes you less identifiable.

I'd say cloudflare is less bad about it than some, but I worry my privacy preserving measures might simply be defeated at this point.

Could you provide a bit more detail? I don't quite see how one would define the event horizon for instance.

Oh I'd hope we can do better. Cures with only theoretical evidence and an inscrutable explanation for why they work sounds terrible.

Why? There's always some model that came out a month ago. It's been three years, what can we conclude?

I'm not sure either. The comments don't look wrong to me.

The headline is that Meta is ignoring a court order, which seems to be the case.

The numerology is weak evidence on its own, but it is decidedly odd in connection with the other examples. If a pattern persists in seemingly irrelevant areas and favours one candidate in a political race then the call for clarification is valid.

Or at least a serious enough issue for a court to order Meta to desist while the legal trial is ongoing.

The emudhra debacle might turn out to be an accidental boon for keeping devices like this running.

To a point anyway.

Pretty sure this is mostly unstyled html. If you don't like how it looks that's on you.

I'm a bit confused. For one I am not sure why this must hold for something as difficult to transfer as energy, and I am not sure why it matters. Not all energy is the same, hence the title.

Not that it isn't an interesting question but what's preventing them now? You can get a certificate for any domain you control. It is just really obvious if you abuse that power. Which shouldn't really change with DNSSEC I think.

It should, though it achieves that goal by a chain of certificates not unlike CAs just tied to DNS. Like I said, it essentially just moves the problem.

Which might still be better, if only because it limits the surface area.

Making DNS secure is not trivial though. In a way that's just moving the problem.

In quantum mechanics? Energy conservation is not as strict as you might think.

It just somehow always balances out in the end.

Well it's against the law, so presumably they were clever enough not to put it in their TOS.
