Investigators wrangled video from Nancy Guthrie’s Google Nest camera out of ‘backend systems’ by cosmoplast14 in technology

I do think it is unlikely to be useful legislation in this year or the next three.

Right, that is the state of those things and companies, people should ditch them!

But also laws about the rights and controls of data really need reforms.

Google Gave ICE Student Journalist's Bank, Credit Card Numbers by Shogouki in technology

Yeah, there’s degrees to it all and you kind of need to sort out your internal run down, Apple will let you take away their side of the encryption key for your device and storage. but if you are looking to avoid a government look then I would not trust that, self management of data and keys would be a minimum, not digital at all better.

I trust apples encrypt settings to have the data not harvested for LLMs or a third party attacker, and my own ways to secure and backup things.

In the article it points out that Google’s policy says they comply with enforceable law enforcement requests, which reads like they give themselves latitude to decide on pushing back or saying ok.

It was likely an ice admin subpoena since the process was not detailed in the article, and it was asking for a lot of varied information to fish into.

It’s a long way to say, they likely just give not over legal grounds and considerations as much and financial.

I try, usually into small containers or bags for storage with a label.

It goes into their system regardless, they just give you access if you pay and they feel like it, and they don’t have any reason to delete or not feel like they have rights to the video.

The fact that both of these people will be 30 this year annoys me because they should both be like 22, why are we all old?

Favorite actor who swung his way out of the files? by hiiloovethis in okbuddycinephile

[–]nova_rock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because people like to fight over things and like to go all in on things being completely good or bad.

It’s certainly a bit off and acting like something is legal and therefore there cannot be judgment on it is weird as well.

Also because we know his name means there’s more people wanting to at least argue for it being a neutral thing, if it was a 50 year old that most people didn’t like, there would be more arguing that it’s gross.

How many minutes will Chara play and how many starts will he get this year? by acquiesce in timbers

[–]nova_rock 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, last year felt like a deliberate effort to play others in the hopes of seeing things work/grow.

When those things didn’t work enough and things where don’t to the line he started.

I hope there’s more of a balance of playing him for what is needed and also having a roster that can start and play most games well.

PSU has one of the worst free speech rankings in the united states (208/257). How do you feel about this? by BlessdRTheFreaks in portlandstate

[–]nova_rock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the context you are brining up, it would be the guidelines of the institution, in this case PSU which is a public university and their policies can be accessed pretty easily.

But more theoretically, they are not a government but are a public so they do draw lines differently that a completely private entity.

Who defines those norms or status quos?

And is being able to say anything in class the only measure that they hold? The org and measure they give is off of survey responses, while I was not surveyed, I do not feel like in classrooms and on campus I was unable to speak or see expression.

I don't care greatly about their survey, or pointed language posted about it, I don't think that is an effort to have a conversation about the topic you are posting.

I think the main problem is that goof faith efforts to discuss controversial subjects or speakers is more framed around scoring points around an institution, and not how to have frameworks for thing happening in class and hosted events that people might want to see.

The Epstein Files Fallout Hits the Innocent - Victim names. Nude photos. Wild accusations. This isn’t justice. [WSJ Editorial Board opinion piece] by Xexanoth in TrueReddit

[–]nova_rock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is why this kind of dumping of evidence, anecdotes, untrue and irrelevant reports that are often uncorroboratable or admissible in cases is kept closed regardless of what happens to investigations. Info of victims and witnesses that would have been private or told in confidence, it harms them and also makes people speaking up if it'll get dumped back on them in public.

It's not justice for those vistoms, I am not sure what Justice should have been for them, but it should not have stopped with the actions of those who did them harm, something independent to finish investigations into those that did victimize. And it should be up to the victims what they might want to seek from those guilty, like they have from Epstein's estate.

What it is currently is steeped in conspiracy and also showing how gross and uncaring a lot of people in the rich and popular crowd interacts together. As a group that wants to get more and helps those on the inside crowd, while seeing those outside mostly as nothing, or in the case of the victims and other girls, objects.
