@christopherkunz #UnpopularOpinion: The #ValueRemoving #RentSeeking nature of #SSL-#Certificates is the problem.

Solutions that tried to unfuck this ( @cacert ) got cockblocked by #Apple and #Microsoft whilst @letsencrypt which basically provides certificates to everyone and everything gets a free pass.

• Because #SiliconValley is more equal than others!

@papageier @chrisstoecker +9001%

Ich finde diesen #Abozwang absolute shice & "#ValueRemoving" weil es darauf abzielt #digital unbequemer als #Print zu machen, und das kann es nicht sein.

• Entweder ist digital genauso bequem und nicht teurer (eher billiger) als Print oder ich verweiger' mich dem!

Und dann bitte nen #PDF der Print-Ausgabe oder besser gleich nen #ePub - hauptsache ohne #DRM weil Papierausgabe hat auch kein DRM!

@Daojoan and exactly that is the absurdity of it.

• If they were forced to do this full circle, they'd essentially shut down everthing, sell off all the assets and cash out.

Oh nevermind, that's the whole #ManagmentCulture for the last 30+ years where some #ValueRemoving #Manager just kills R&D, cashes out bonuses and when the company dies in 5-25 years their successors' successor is forced to hold the bag.

• I've seen that in #IT and elsewhere…

@Linux #ClownFlare is literally a #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker that #MITM's traffic to capture #Logins in #PlainText & also acts as #RogueISP hosting everything from #CSAM to #Cybercrime and #Terrorism.

• There is no legitimate reason to use #CloudFlare for anything!

@denmanrooke same goes for #ValueRemoving #rentseekers like #CollectingAgencies that only payout 9,0909% of all their revenue to artists!

i.e. #GEMA...

@katja nodds in agreement #NSAbook got caught #leeching and literally.configuring their #BitTorrent nodes.not to seed a single bit of data, thus be a #ValueRemoving #NetNegative.

@kajer #CloudFlare is a #RogueISP and their "business" is at best #ValueRemoving #rentseeking but mire iften than not just a digital #RacketeeringScheme!

@Viss #CloudFlare is a #RogueISP known to offer Services in #Russia and to #CyberCriminals...

#ClownFlare is also a #ValueRemoving #rentseeker who's core product / service is essentially a #Racketeering Scheme and should not exist as any competent hoster offers #DDoS protection free of charge...

@kajer well, @mozillaofficial DESERVES the #hate and #heat for betraying #Firefox users!

• I still want them to surrender it and hand it over to @torproject so #TorBrowser becomes the new #Upstream, which would also normalize #Tor useage and finally cancel #ClownFlare and other #ValueRemoving #rentseekers for good!

@Laird_Dave @ChristianRiegel @dyfustic Vorallen abschaffubg der "#Managementkultur" wo einzelbe #ValueRemoving-#Anzugträger langfristig Zeugs kaputtmachen dürfen um kurzfristig "#LineGoesUp" hinzubekommen.

• Ggf. Sollte auch über ein #Verbot von #Aktiengesellschaften und verpflichtende Rechtsformänderung in #Genossenschaften "ergebnisoffen diskutiert" werden...

@gimulnautti @khobochka The only thing that #RoyalitySchemes like that created are rich #CollectingAgencies that act as #ValueRemoving #Rentseekers (i.e. #GEMA only pas out 9,0909% of all the royalities collected and innan intransparent manner!) on every "Reproduction Device" (i.e. printers, burners, copiers, scanners) and "Blank (Recordable) Media" (i.e. USB drives, SD csrds, recordable BD-RWs) AND more criminalization.

• The only thing that works effectively is to #ban said #Scrapers and commit #AssetDenial against them!

Anything else is just not gonna work...

@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!

Also the #Vsauce music is very #remixable form a #music POV, tho I won't because I despise having to deal with #MusicLicensing in a juristiction that doesn't have any "#FairUse" provision whatsoever and has #ValueRemoving #Rentseekers like #GEMA lobbying for #Cyberfacist bs.

@dankeykang And then the same #Contentmafia has the audacity to complain about people who just want to chug a file into #VLC and be done with it.

• Bonus points if the same #ValueRemoving #Rentseekers that demand "#Respect" for their #IP won't even offer the consumer a legal and fair way to buy a #disc that works #offline as a #PhysicalMedia.

I know for a fact at least a dozen movies who didn't get any #rerelease - #Streaming or #disc - that are thus "#unobtainable" outside of #UsedMarket and thus #scalpers and #piracy.

• It's not as if people "don't want to pay" it's that they can't even get shit if they are able and willing to do so!

@Landkieker @tagesschau ja, weil das beweist wie #kriminell - #inkompetent die #DeutscheBahn ist!

• Die #DB sollte mal die ganzen #Manager austauschen, kompetentes Personal von #JR holen und dafür die eigene Führungsriege nach #Japan schicken damit die mal lernen was #Servicekultur, #Qualitätsstandards und #Pünklichkeit sind!

Schlimmstenfalls sind wir #abfindungsfrei gefeuerte, #ValueRemoving Manager los.

Bestenfalls kriegen wir notwendige #Modernisierung und #Verbesserungen importiert!

@jana I find #ClownFlare to be garbage and have been happy with #ClouDNS for ages, which also has a nice #API...

https://www.cloudns.net/wiki/article/42/

#CloudFlare is a #RogueISP without a #Spine and a #ValueRemoving #RentSeeker...
