If the photos go to a private directory but you are now rooted you should be able to directly access that directory and copy the files out. This is assuming that they are stored as regular files in that directory instead of being solely in the sqlite db. Does that work?

And the same in the US except with ever larger fines than AU https://www.cbp.gov/travel/international-visitors/agricultural-items

I think it was more about sending a message. In a way yes because he is famous, but in the way that they wanted to leverage that as a deterrence. It wasn't about "letting him off the hook". It was about using him as a platform to say to the world "we do not fuck around when it comes to this". If you've seen the hostage video you know what I mean 🤣

It's due to the Adult Survivors Act as referred to in the article and I believe that was ending on Thanksgiving Day so really close to the cut off point too.

Does anyone have/anyone seen commentary regarding the fact that in the days before the firing, OpenAI suspended signups to ChatGPT Plus? It seems relevant but I've not seen anyone make that connection.

I strongly agree that we don't need to start a war over this, but there has got to be more that we can be doing to show China that their actions have consequences, something to check their blatant disregard for the spirit of cooperation.

Seeing as housing is already considered a human right (Article 25), tautologically the answer to the question is no.

Anyone is welcome to install an AV on their device if they so choose. I was more alluding to the fact that there are many things you should be doing to prevent malicious programs from running on your computer in the first place. By the time it makes it onto your system you're really just hoping that an AV would happen to catch it.

It really depends how complex the gadget is. Each step will be at least an order of magnitude more expensive than the last.

• Something that already exists that you can buy off the shelf
• An off the shelf device setup with off the shelf software
• A custom device made using easily obtainable parts
• A fully custom piece of hardware

What about their next door neighbour, Russia?

Yes that makes sense now, thank you!

I have a few weird questions if you have time to answer them. How does it work in the case where the person was outside of the USA at the time, seeing as they were not on USA "soil" at the time? It's just that one of the parties (in this case the federal government) has to be on USA soil?

And how does that work if, say, you're standing on the USA side of the Mexican border and you throw a brick at someone on the Mexican side? Could the Mexican citizen in this case file a lawsuit in a USA court?

It's probably a leading contender for one of the "best for privacy", especially with their business model and even a warrant canary on their legal page. Their Privacy Policy also does a lot to explain things.

It is a slightly different claim to being a privacy first or privacy focused search engine. Privacy is more of a close 2nd priority then a 1st and foremost priority. The difference is small but real. For example, Kagi is incorporated in the USA and has to comply with USA laws. Not a country known for its outstanding track record.
