It's not just that. But, the fact that they are bluetooh or wifi enabled allows people you don't know to track you as well.
I can easily determine what bluetooth devices are near me. If a number of sensors were setup around an area, it would be easy to track people as they move around using just that.

I use KDE Plasma and by my experience it works pretty great with two monitors.

Super cool looking as well. Always appreciate the practical SIGINT / radio based ones.
Things that make you love technology again.

Have to give it to the guy: this is funny AND creative.
I would loved to have seen him running on this hamster wheel contraption crossed with water wheel. 😆

That's cool and all, but I'm going to stick with fvwm2. I like a window manager that uses less than 200k of ram.

Reply to Average KaliLinux user. by Rambler
Pretty much. 😆
While I like Kali, Blackarch is another really great option (last checked has more tools as well).

Reply to comment by righttoprivacy in US driver pulled over with huge African bull riding shotgun in car by z3d
I was thinking he needs to upgrade his hood ornament with the bigger horns.
I've got an old Mercedes 'meme car' that I'd love a set of longhorns for.

Was glad to see this. Community building use cases, a really important part for I2P growth IMHO.

Woah. The horns on that thing! 😲 Imagine getting in a car accident with those things coming at you... can't be safe.

I noticed drones flying in formation in an entirely different part of US this weekend.
Of course my sister thought they were 👽 aliens. Was a bit disappointed when I informed her. 😁

For some reason I was also under the impression that international airports also counted as borders as well. So, that would mean that every major city in the sates would be in that red range.
Food for thought.

What a loophole. Doubt most people living there have any idea.

I was told when I was communicating with the EFF that they'd likely do a write up over the events taking place, and am happy to see this come to light finally. This is how it all began: https://twitter.com/IncogNetLLC/status/1685359845505957888
For those unaware, I own a small ISP that focuses on speech and privacy. Hurricane Electric is a major transit provider where a customer of ours, downstream of us, had their IPs that were announced by us blackholed and dropped by Hurricane Electric. At the time, their IP announcement was a singlehomed connection to HE only so it essentially meant that they censored and blocked access to this legal content.
This is why platforms and networks like I2P and Tor are so incredibly important, but also why it's important we support organizations like the EFF who fight for our clearnet rights.

Me too! I installed I2P today, not expecting to find the darknet version of Reddit!

Reply to So, I decided to give KDE Plasma a whirl... by Rambler
I have currently installed cinnamon, xfce, gnome, lxde, lxqt, mate and plasma on my Debian PC. Most often, I find myself using lxde and plasma. I admire plasma's looks! I primarily use lxde because it is so lightweight, and my computer is 15 years old. However, it does struggle a bit when running plasma...

Reply to Fifth Circuit Says Law Enforcement Doesn’t Need Warrants To Search Phones At The Border by Rambler
Even worse, technically, the 'border' extends 100 miles inland within the United States. Your rights are extremely limited in these areas: https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/border-zone
If you've ever lived in, visited or traveled through some areas of the American south, you may be surprised to find border checkpoints 80 miles north of the US/MX border, for example. Borders aren't just land borders, either, as it also includes sea/lake borders.

Definitely.
100%. And most not aware wifi devices share their saved network history with anyone listening (helping map out patterns of life / home / work / wifi use locations).
