On Saturday, I'll be talking at AMRO about why the European Commission's plan to soften privacy regulation for slop machines is a bad idea that will harm us all eventually.

If you're in Linz at 10:00 a.m. and interested, please come and join the discussion. If you're not around, there will be a live stream (at dorftv.at).

Also, please have a look at all the other great contributions to AMRO!

Researchers found Microsoft Edge loads every saved password into plaintext memory at launch, increasing exposure after session compromise 🔐
Unlike other Chromium browsers, Edge keeps credentials readable in RAM, raising scraping risks on shared and admin-access systems 🛡️

look it's for cheaper car insurance okay? I aim them downward, mostly at my vehicle to reduce privacy infringement on people who also didn't ask for this. Fucking £650 my fat ass. And that was with agreeing to a month of monitoring via creepy app, ffs. At least it's not an all-the-time creeper black box.

So, can anyone tell me whether #Windows #Passkey is actually a good thing?

Somehow the prompt keeps popping up for more and more websites/services, and frankly I'm having a hard time finding out whether it's either more secure or a security risk compared to having different passwords for each website or using two factor authentification.
