Although my version of Bypass hasn't been updated for over a year, it has been working fine.

But my latest attempt to read the New York Times indicates that it has been detected and/or blocked.

When I try to update it via gitflic.ru/ I can't seem to manually update it either. Firefox says the file is corrupt when I drag it into the browser or update (add) file via settings.

I'm assuming it's because it's a zip file but when I unzip the folder there are no files in there that firefox recognises for me to add (only a changelog, licence and readme).

Can someone please clarify - for me and anyone else likely to encounter similar issues in the future - what I might be doing wrong.

thank you!

I can't see emojis anymore, they don't work on librewolf.

I first noticed this under a post titled something like "try telling a story using only emojis". The comments were empty.

If I open the same page in brave browser, they work as intended. I can't see emojis in apps like libreoffice either. Is there a way to get system-wide emoji support?

Before going to a protest, demonstrators or observers should note that their cellphones may subject them to surveillance tactics by law enforcement. If your cellphone is on and unsecured, your location can be tracked and your unencrypted communications, such as SMS, may be intercepted. Additionally, police may retrieve your messages and the content of your phone if they take custody of your phone, or later by warrant or subpoena.

Find one near you, write down the address and time, and head out tomorrow. (You don't have to sign up for anything, all you need is the address).

Recommended that you bring a mask, hat, water and snacks. Safety Goggles or Glasses would also be a good idea if you have them.

Bring a sign or the US Flag if you have one.

For privacy reasons you may want to avoid bringing your phone, or place it inside a faraday bag (a really well sealed tinfoil pouch will work, and put it in airplane mode to avoid draining your battery) until you get home.

If you have a first aid kit, it wouldn't hurt to bring it, just in case.

A four-panel meme [annoyed bird]:

[Panel 1]: A pigeon says, “Here is why that game was nothing for me:”

[Panel 2]: The pigeon states well-argued criticism. Someone interrupts, “Skill issue!”

[Panel 3]: The interrupter is a raven shouting over the pigeon, “There are settings and mods for this”

[Panel 4]: The pigeon is annoyed. The raven shouts a clown-face emoji.

Smartphones are making us unhealthy, miserable, antisocial, and less free. If we can’t yet nationalize the attention economy, maybe it’s time to abolish its primary tool — before it finishes abolishing us.

For All That Is Good About Humankind, Ban Smartphones

Good news in privacy for ActivityPub. The first early draft of the MLS over ActivityPub specification went out this week. It’s been part of my work on our E2EE for ActivityPub project at the Social Web Foundation.

Messaging Layer Security (MLS) is an IETF standard for end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) messaging. It lets people on laptops and phones communicate with each other in a secure way that no one in between can see.

MLS is designed to use pluggable lower-level protocols. This specification defines an envelope format for distributing MLS messages through the network, and an Activity Streams 2.0 profile for the packets of application data stored inside the messages.

This specification is ready for review from both ActivityPub developers and security analysts. It’s time to start making proof-of-concept implementations and testing interoperability.

The best place to make comments or report problems is on the ActivityPub E2EE GitHub repo issues list. I’m looking forward to these next steps!

End-to-end Encryption (E2EE) over ActivityPub

Encrypted direct messages supply the confidence that people need to connect with family, friends and colleagues privately over a social network. As part of the Summer of Protocols 2024, we explore …
