No matter what app it is, if employers require one to be used on a smartphone, they are legally obligated to provide you with a work phone. If they refuse, they are legally obligated to provide reimbursement for your personal mobile plan. This can be as simple as $5 or $10 added monthly to a paycheck, or as detailed as actual usage down to the kilobyte.

Even if it's as simple as clocking in and out. If they won't provide a phone or reimburse, they must have some other method to complete the task. Whether it be a computer or paper. Failing that, they are not upholding the law of providing you tools necessary to complete your job. Which means if they terminate you for any of the above under "not able to do your job", it is retaliation for you requiring them to do their job. You could potentially win a suit against them.

Pretty sure you can see their email address. This should give you the opportunity to message them stating you'll be canceling the subscription. They'll still be able to subscribe on their own.

...well yeah...

If a US based company (via their websites) collects data on citizens in the EU, they have to comply. Otherwise the EU can issue fines. This is why some websites are geo-blocked.

If you are a website admin and know some of your traffic will come from the EU, you have to comply with the GDPR set for their residents, or block anyone from that region from accessing. You have complied by taking one of those actions.

Legally speaking, it's not DOT compliant and unenforceable. So you don't have to stop at all. And if you want to, you can actually file a complaint and have it taken down. Traffic control signs must be approved and provided by the city/county.

Anecdotal: I filed a complaint when neighbors erected a speed limit sign in our neighborhood and put a camera on it. They were told to take it down or it will be forcefully removed and they'll be fined for the time and labor involved. It was removed about two weeks later.

Some apps can't be posted on store fronts for one or more reasons.

Side loading definitely has its place and is a welcome change to iOS.

Oh my. You're doing it wrong. Exposing the unencrypted connection without the proper security measures is putting yourself at risk. Regardless of how strong you set the password, the connection can still be abused in all manner of ways. If you read the jellyfin documentation, you'd see the developers clearly state you should never do this. You need to put Jellyfin behind server software. Specifically a reverse proxy. I use NGINX. You can setup your connection to be secure this way. You can now also use Cloudflare if you have cache turned off. And if you really wanna go the extra mile, route it behind a VPN. Though this makes it harder for those you share it with or some devices that don't support VPN.

Please revise your connection. If you need help, feel free to reach out.

Your entire statement here stems from not knowing what you're talking about. That's OK. I'll provide some insight.

Secure Boot is a security feature of UEFI that only allows trusted, cryptographically signed operating systems to boot. The nature of this prevents rootkits. Software that runs before the OS and injects itself. BIOS has many hard limitations and disadvantages over the modern standard that is UEFI. Your comparison going from 32 to 64 bit architecture is quite fitting. It's not that different. There are many hard limitations and disadvantages to 32 bit. It's unfit for today's standards due to lack of features and security. All aspects of technology have to move forward.

Everyone knows Denuvo's statement isn't true. There are hundreds of games with Denuvo that have improved performance after being cracked, compared to the legitimately owned version. This conversation pops up all the time. It's quite funny when pirated games have a better experience. At least until Denuvo is removed to cut cost (it's a subscription).

Is a meme. Google would kill their business model if they did this. Their whole model is to collect data from user searches and then make money off it.

"VPN user voting is not allowed"

Lol.

Once you agree to letting friends and family access your hosted services, you become the tech support for any problems. Whether that be your fault, user error, etc. You should absolutely limit who you give access to. In my case, only three people can and that's immediate family. No friends, no extended family. I don't wanna deal with all that mess when I deal with it at work. Don't over extend yourself by being nice.

~~Using Cloudflare is against the ToS when used for services like Jellyfin. Your account can be limited, closed, or find yourself getting a several hundred dollar bill for data usage because you've breached the terms of service. Additionally, streaming content on free accounts incurs higher latency which I've confirmed myself Argo smart routing massively reduces. https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/9295 - Don't abuse what's free or you may lose it.~~

Google shouldn't be indexing your domains anyway. If it's flagged your domain, it's been indexed and scanned. Alternatively, it could indicate you have a weak point somewhere on your server and you've been breached. Google's scan picked up whatever it was. Though I doubt this is the case and just a false positive. Double check your robots.txt files and disallow everything. Most index bots respect this. You can use a community sourced bot blocker. https://github.com/mitchellkrogza/nginx-ultimate-bad-bot-blocker

I've been running my own self hosted services for almost a decade. Though I have a background in IT directly doing this kind of stuff daily at work. As long as you have a strong firewall, modern TLS, relevant security headers, automatic tools like fail2ban, and have a strong grasp on permissions, you should be fine. Before I moved everything to non-root docker, it was given its own service user and SELinux policy. Using direct DNS isn't so much of a problem. You shouldn't have any issues. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

No.

  • A Muted user can still follow you and send direct messages. They can see your profile incl. tweets, retweets, and likes. You simply hide their tweets from your timeline/feed only.
  • A Blocked user is prevented from following you and cannot send direct messages. They cannot see your profile incl. tweets, retweets, and likes. You are preventing any and all interaction.
