if you browse the play store on a web browser you can open app links directly to bypass this. for now.

Yes, i point out whackamole in my comment. It’s a completely useless critique of tor/briar because there is no alternative which cannot also be critiqued like this, and there can never be.

you might as well say “well the problem with keyboards is that someone needs to ship it to you.”

oh sure, but you can get around these blocks and this sort of block is ultimately always a possibility short of building your own network infrastructure. and as blocks like that become more common it becomes more common to circumvent them too.

“significantly harder than youve been lead to believe”, no, you just werent clear in your description of the problem. if your problem with tor is “governments can play whack-a-mole blocking ips and traffic” there is no technology which doesnt have that as a downside.

“the tor protocol can be locked” ?

tor is decentralized, if someone’s tor server goes down you just go to another.

it might be a difference of language but it’s important to recognize that courts are part of your system of governance regardless of the words you use to describe it, and are subject to most of the same incentives and corrupting influences, and some thatare unique to courts.

courts are part of the government…

or want a pixel, or want to buy a new phone. the insistence on pixel support only is frustrating.

Trilium is good

Datas is correct if you are referring to multiple distinct populations of data. Which in this case works.

They are too busy reading every email to profile you for ads and authoritarian purposes to do that.

Honestly I was expecting far more downvotes. I posted the video with people like you in mind, who still can think critically are marks without the burden of misinformation and ideology. not being marks.

Ftfy

By the way, if you think you are not subject to ideology, I have several things to sell you.

For anyone else reading: everyone is subject to ideology. The moment you think you arent, that is when you are most trapped by it.

The point is that game developers don’t get royalties the same way say, book writers do, not that the distribution is uneven or exactly unfair in a direct sense.

Digital data is extremely short lived. Unless it’s being maintained well and copied, it will decay regardless of storage medium fairly rapidly. And as you point out data interface techniques are themselves quite short lived. Storing data as something accessible without specialist technology, so plainly readable, instructions on how to build the reader and decode the data, etc.

Future technology may improve this by having historians interested in historical records wanting ways to recover it, at least.

Not really planning on sacrificing privacy and safety from monopolies by doing that thanks. Not everybody’s threat model is that ridiculous.

That’s essentially the opposite path Photoshop took and that’s considered good for both. Anyway can attest, krita works great for everything I’ve every used Photoshop for.

The point is that their identity as a scientist will be one small contributing factor compared to who they are as a person, making it difficult to really even answer without just going to each individual person and asking them. Hey plumbers, why do you use Facebook? Hey accountants, why are you in Instagram?

I can answer it!

Scientists aren’t a monolith and are an extremely diverse group of people associated together largely by profession alone, and within a single lab of scientists all working on the same project one could expect to fund each one using different social media if at all.

In addition to the correction from the other user - there are plenty of designs that provide access to phone internals with no tools. Snap fit phone bodies work fine, there are several modern phones with them and numerous older phones. Still water resistant, and the case doesn’t magically pop off just by dropping it.

(Also a case popping off from being dropped actually protects internals and the screen by absorbing some of the drop energy anyway, since the kind of drop that would easily pop a phone body off is the same kind of drop that will break screens.)
