  1. Wrt my previous post, yesterday I was setting up Affine on my SO's phone to finally get off our iCloud shared Notes

    Everything works well, get the app, configure the server URL, login in with OIDC... Woops, 503 error

    PocketID had been descheduled and left hanging after a failing node took the longhorn lock in its downfall

    A quick lock release and boom, we are back to business, all notes are in both of our phones, and with realtime editing !

  2. Day 290

    If a journalist eventually finds it, the story waiting for them is no longer “Amazon misspelled an actor’s name.”

    It is:

    “A German woman spent nearly a year documenting a systemic catalogue-integrity problem while every major stakeholder said, in one form or another, that responsibility belonged somewhere else.”

  3. The "privacy" you think you have in Malaysia is an illusion.

    Authorities have a legal backdoor into your entire digital existence. Under Section 249 of the Communications & Multimedia Act (CMA), police can demand your passwords, PINs, or biometrics during an investigation.

    Here is the creepy part: Refusing to unlock your phone IS the crime itself.

    They don't need to crack sophisticated encryption; they just crack you with the threat of immediate arrest for "obstruction." You become a criminal just for trying to protect your data dignity.

    And it's getting worse. The incoming #Pindaan2025 amendments propose escalating penalties for non-compliance up to a staggering RM1 MILLION fine or 5 YEARS in prison.

    This isn't about fighting crime; it's an infrastructure designed to force compliance through state-sanctioned fear. Your digital mind is yours only until they ask for it. Wake up.
