@colinstu I still like the #Pizzabox-Style #PCcase design.

• Makes them look nice, clean, sleek and espechally in the #CRT age saves space...

• Even today they are good, regardless if @fuchsiii or #MattKC: They are just nifty...

Now if you don't trust @monocles nor @protonprivacy (which IMHO is fair and correct!) and you can't use @thunderbird or something because you have no private computer with internet access [i.e. only a work-issued laptop you can't use for anything non-work - related] and you can't just boot into @tails_live / @tails / #Tails or a portable #Linux #Desktop distro at all then the real "#GalaxyBrainChair" - level "#BigThink" you can do is go the "#OfflinePGP" route and thus encrypt & decrypt your messages on a different device entirely.

• The main problem may be that you'd then have to get that to the machine from which you can send it, which as we all know from the #MattKC video means you gotta "keep it brief" [as in 2.944 bytes short] if you want to do the webcam & screen method of #airgapping...
  

I just didn't have time to get the "Airgapped Transfer Protocol" done, but setting the *"Barcode Scanner" App into bulk mode makes it less tedious to import stuff to an Android device...

• Again: The nice part with #OpenPGP & #PGP/MIME is that you don't have to trust anyone but yourself and maybe your communication partners' ability to make proper #Keys and get the #Pubkey to you...

@khobochka guess why I maintain a #Scraper #blocklist?

• In fact I know multiple people and organizations that decide to basically redirect #ValueRemoving #Scrapers like #GPTbot, #ByteSpider (which literally #DDoS'd #MattKC because #ClownFlare are a criminally incompetent #RogueISP!) to #Hetzner's 10GB Speedtest file which can be found at http://hil-speed.hetzner.com/10GB.bin as an extra middlefinger!

@fuchsiii @lynn @LunaDragofelis also in case anyone needs to be convinced how much of a useless value-remover ClownFlare / CloudFlare are in "preventing DDoS attacks":

@MattKC had been DDoS'd by ByteDance's Crawler into downtime!

@xogium this issue of excessive crawlers is sadly nothing new. @MattKC / #MattKC experienced the same with #ByteSpider, the #Scraper used by #TikTok which results basically in his site getting #DDoS'd despite #ClownFlare being tasked to prevent it!

Personally, I've run out of patience and tolerance for such actions by #GAFAMs and #TechBros and I'm so close to just blocklist their entire ASN as a matter of principle!

• It's just that I'd likely have to make an entire dedicaded blocklist and toolup some script to pull a BGP feed or rather IP assignments data for their entire ASN and submit these in #git as branch updates, merge that and block said network in it's entirely as I did with the DoD networks.
