Yes and no.

let’s say I have a website that hosts user generated content like a forum or something. Some other person just hosts a mirror of my website that is not under my control. If some user requests me to delete his data, I can do that. i cannot delete the data from the mirror site.

Nothing else is happening in the fediverse. The only difference is, that in the fediverse the license and technology is set up to encourage mirroring content.

Ieft leaning? These orgs sound more like the typical liberal right centrist orgs from america lol

I‘ve had this issue on several distros and multiple friends have the same issue. Video hardware acceleration in a browser is a mess. This is definitely not only affecting me as there is a significant amount of complaints on forums and reddit.

And there is no way that the average computer user will use arch. And as long as you gotta fiddle around with your system to get even the most basic shit running smoothly like watching a high resolution youtube video and moving around windows on your other screen at the same time linux will stay irrelevant as a desktop os. It‘s still a system for nerds and I kinda feel like that this is okay.

Your first point is web browsing. Even that doesn‘t work properly on a linux desktop lol. Browser performance is abysmal because the browsers lack out of the box support for hardware acceleration. Even if you get it to work it might not work reliably and an update might break it again.

Try using a discord call and open a youtube video in 4k at the same time on a a freshly installed linux desktop. The audio will be choppy and the video will drop frames like crazy. Just moving around windows on your desktop is not nearly as smooth as it is on windows.

You just measure the time until the delivery recipe arrives. You can approximate how far away the recipient is. Now you keep doing that while changing your own location (use vpns etc.) and you can slowly get a more accurate location of the target. Now you automate that stuff and also utilize machine learning to interpret the data.

This type of attack theoretically also works with signal or telegram or whatever message service that works entirely without a phone number.

Why would you use first party messaging apps? Who the hell still sends sms? Just use signal. Easy fix.

I mean yeah Twitch definitely needs competition. It’s just kinda sad when the compition is even shadier than twitch lmao

How would you even enforce that?

Of course every parent should have an idea of their kids are doing on the internet or at least educate their kids to such a degree that they don’t require supervision and can be trusted use the internet responsibly. But that is just common sense and should fall in to the general responsibilities of a parent.

I shouldn’t have to be a lucky mf that stumbles upon an article by coincidence that explains how to configure his web browser to not send pictures I look at across the atlantic ocean without my knowledge. WTF is going on.

I’m currently running Mint on my Computer and Ubuntu on servers.
