Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Coming from a district court, I think this ruling could be appealed, but it's welcome news nevertheless.

Travel with a burner, wipe it before boarding . If at any time my phone has been removed from my possession, when I arrive back at my home port/airport, I remove the SIM and drop the phone in the garbage.

Laptops I mail the encrypted drive back home and travel with a clean install on a disposable 128/256g drive.

Infosec, Financials and Elections. Having good security posture is fashionable.

No bunker, but you can come tour my boat.

“No bunker”

Oh, I understand.

No you don't, but that's ok, I wouldn't expect you to.

I prefer to send electronics to e-waste recycling (or reuse for some task where security doesn't matter) rather than a landfill, but I'm with you in principle: If the authorities get it out of your possession, the hardware is compromised.

Anything else yes. Possibly a compromised device, I want to go gone bye ASAP and away from me.

If you really don't need much room a persistent operating system on a USB stick can be very clutch.

A 512Gb USB is plenty big enough for me to have a travel OS on, with space for extras. Hell, I used to run Puppy Linux on a 64gb USB.

My EDC boots Navigatrix.

Shouldn't you also reinstall the boot loader for the same reason as you'd bin the phone?

Speak of the devil. This article is from two days ago.
