Last year they fired a guy from my team but didn't cut his access first. In the 15 minutes between HR talk and desktop support actually closing his accounts he managed to send messages to all C*O and some managers telling them how unfair it was (it was totally fair) and accusing the company and his manager of racism.

I'm thinking about moving to Korea. Not forever but for a year or two. Learn the language, get to know the culture, disconnect for a bit and come back to EU. How's the IT job market there? Is it doable?

Interesting theory. So Americans stole the land from Americans because there was a civil war? That's definitely a way to look at it.

My take is that they don't track you for fun. They track you to sell you shit. Most people buy what they see in ads and believe fake promotions so this is a good business model.

Best way to stay out is not to hide absolutely everything. It's to block ads and don't buy so much stuff. Obviously don't give out data you don't have to, block trackers, use privacy tools. But don't feel bad if some data gets out. You will never block everything and a lot of it is not that important if you're not playing the game.

How do you synchronize all this pooping? Is this what NTP is for?

Every single person alive today is on stolen land

Who the Aborigines stole the land from? Or Polynesians?

That's not easy. I mean it's not that hard computationally but you're talking about very specific attack requiring some dedicated tools. Real life you would have two scenarios:

  1. You trying to break into my specific account like gmail. This will not help you because they will rate limit you, use captcha and eventually just block you.
  2. You have a leaked list of thousands/millions password hashes and my password is among them. Hackers would just use existing rainbow tables. They will not think 'hey, maybe some of those passwords use song lyrics, let's check'.

This would be bad pretty much only in the very specific scenario of hackers trying to hack my specific account and having leaked hashes of password for this account.

Still I wouldn't really use this method. I'm just saying it's better method than some printed card generating short alphanumeric password.

Crack how? With 4-5 words you're going to have a pretty long password so bruteforce is out. Do you mean that if you will have one of my password you will have the rest? That's because I gave you obvious example as a joke. What if my password is TakePicturesOfYou. What other password are possible? How will you crack them?

Better idea: memorize lyrics to a song, for each website choose a different starting word, use 4 consecutive words as password. You only have to remembered one number per page, you don't need to print anything and you can have longer passwords.

Mine connects through pihole with all LG domains blocked. I'm not getting any update request, notifications or anything. Just Netflix.

Nothing. 6.6.6 was already released.
