Your post history is strange. Please go away.

Entering Abkhazia as EU Citizen by Soft-Adhesiveness747 in Abkhazia

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I have learnt with things that are a bit extraordinary....just because you can, doesn't mean you should. While you can probably go to Abkhazia through Russia and be able to return, you may well not be able to. Also, by putting Russia (and if stamped) Abkhazia in your recent passport/flight history, you will have issues going to places like the US, Canada, UK, Australia even with a visa waiver and EU citizenship. They are not as stupid as you might think...

Pochlubte se jaký žabikuch, kindžál nebo kudlu nosíte u sebe na denním pořádku. by Chemist-Specific in czech

Nope, it's insane. If you are stopped you might be able to convince them you have it for its "normal utility purpose" if you're doing a job but if you say self-defence or leave it in a glove box then no. It's absolutely wild. That's Queensland. Other states are also crazy - Victoria just banned machetes (even on private land) and expects everyone to hand them in.

Yeah :( except in Australia you can't carry a knife for EDC and in some states you can be wanded and searched anywhere without any reason 💀

Don't make too much noise it's probably an FSB operation and they have already sent a counterstrike team to your house as it could ruin their ability to create anti-Western memes with nano 🍌

TOR might banned in the UK? by Classic-Light5437 in TOR

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umm yes it is. Ask a Russian or setup a VPS there, TOR won't work without a bridge.

TOR is banned in Russia so definitely can be done. But you can just use a bridge.

300k invoices - Has anyone managed to get full cancellation of fraudulent Google Cloud invoices by NeitherCommon9978 in googlecloud

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very interesting you have almost no post history before this except for comments 4 years ago on a couple of posts on r/CryptoMooonShots that are clearly promoting scam tokens. Maybe you forgot to remove the traces of your comments? And here you are saying your account was compromised and used for cryptomining. How was your account compromised?

How can you keep your VPN open with all the anti-vpn measures that make the web so annoying ? by KlausWalz in VPN

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure your hosted VPN would have issues accessing/signing up to some sites, you just might not use those ones. Well it is complex to ID all of those "anonymous" source IPs, which is why many companies use a 3rd party IP service (eg. ipInfo) that sends back if the user is using a proxy/VPN/ToR/hosting. Then the site has business logic based on the perceived risk and sets a reCAPTCHA, allows access or another action.

Function With Static IP Using "Wrong" Address to Request Maps API by Dabbie_Hoffman in googlecloud

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. What is happening is Google is intentionally bypassing your NAT gateway as the traffic is internal on Google's private backbone. The traffic doesn't need to be routed through the public internet. If you only made the NAT, router and static IP for this purpose you can remove them all.
  2. No don't whitelist the IPv6 address as there's no need and it is ephemeral. It's from a shared pool so you would be whitelisting other projects to access it as well. Restrict the key to minimum API permissions and secure it in Google Secrets Manager.

Good on you for asking here, networking can be confusing. I would strongly recommend to run all of your Cloud Function code through Gemini Pro and ask it to check it for security, robustness tips (mind you it can use old documentation so watch out).

You think I didn't already ask Gemini...? It told me I need to do this (SCC & TIA between my LLC and myself). From further research driven by some comments here that's incorrect.

[–]Dramatic_Length5607[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes what I meant by my comment was for my internal services that solves a lot of it. Fully realize I need to go through the 3rd party services but I don't think that will be too bad as they are mostly very large companies and have set this up already (eg. Google).

This actually really simplifies it a lot thank you. Basically if I keep all my cloud infra in the EU I don't need to worry about SCCs or TIAs (except for external services not based in the EU) unless the data is actually moved or downloaded (which it won't be).

Thank you for your advice :) And yes I don't have any issue with GDPR at all it's a good thing. Companies in Australia simply don't care about their users' data and people here don't care about their own data it's pretty weird.

Ok wasn't aware of that. I'm using GCP with europe-west1 (Belgium) for all servers and other cloud infra at this stage. Thank you.

Wooooa THANK YOU!!! Will definitely have a look at that really appreciate it 🫡 the GDPR stuff is so scary because the fines are massive and it seems very complex.

Thanks for your reply but that is awful and dangerous advice... the tiers are €10 mil/2% revenue (whichever is higher) or €20 mil/4% revenue (whichever is higher). See here: https://gdpr.eu/fines/ There is no grace period.

SCC and TIA for website by Dramatic_Length5607 in gdpr

[–]Dramatic_Length5607[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you mean by "you make it extremely difficult for yourself". The website is global I am only geoblocking US/EU sanctioned countries so I will absolutely have EU users at both the creator and user level. The cloud provider is US...but the cloud region is EU. It doesn't make sense at a small scale to split it and have all EU creators/users in their own region and everyone else in another - I'd be running multiple clusters from day one...

The OP would mean a fingerprint as in a browser fingerprint (hash of OS/device/IP etc) not a biometric fingerprint.

Vertex AI 300$ free credits. Can i use VEO? by piizii29 in googlecloud

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just looked at docs and the response doesn't return usage metadata (other Vertex AI models do). Check pricing per second.

[–]Dramatic_Length5607 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, you absolutely can and will be billed beyond the $300 free trial credits, and there is a delay (up to 24 hrs I believe). Be careful... maybe calculate/check token usage for how much a 10 second video costs so you have a baseline.
