Hypotheses are made for a reason though. Science is still about finding what's true, and ruling out what's not is part of the process/method for doing so. Sometimes all the alternatives to the truth are ruled out and we know the truth. Scientific revolutions happen sometimes, but they still need to explain everything the old theories explained. The newer theories may still be wrong, but in different and hopefully fewer ways. It's important to keep the scope of what's been demonstrated/tested in mind to not be misled about what truths have been established. Newton's physics is still largely true within the scope of everyday experience, for example.

DDoS prevention may be essential, but not CloudFlare.

Smaller is less efficient. They don't get to benefit from economy of scale as much as larger.

It's foolish to trust Brave. https://www.spacebar.news/p/stop-using-brave-browser

I was hoping someone would know why it was blocked as malware, thinking it might be compromised and that people should be warned. VT says it's safe though so it's likely a mistake. Not sure what you mean about traceability. You could check the github.

Blocked in uBO by The Block List Project - Malware List.

I don't think that would break it because you have a limited amount of time. You base it on 1/e of the number of people you expect to date not the number of potential options.

Such bans are rare, and usually get reversed if it was only triggered due to Linux.

> several hundred thousands

Several thousand, coming from Trump's rally which only had about 20k total.

But you know that's the next step and it's going to happen.

If you want to avoid fingerprinting you should use tor-browser. And using a chromium-based browser over tor makes you more fingerprintable, not less.

Neither was omitting Putin's admission that he wanted Trump to win from the Whitehouse transcripts.

It's not a big deal. You can just hit K on any you're not sure about to see the help. Might need to set keywordprg=:help.

Not nearly as good.

Are you just clinging to the last dev version of uMatrix, or did you find an active fork or something?

I'm still sore about Reader too. Fortunately Inoreader is about as good.

I'm surprised thumbing things down isn't helping you - it was the thing that fixed YTM for me. I wasn't thumbing things down enough, now anything I don't want to hear again I thumb down, and I mostly listen to the personalized and discovery mixes. You might need to switch/reload stations for it to take effect. And IIRC the discovery mix only updates on Wed.

Felinks is an actively maintained fork.

Browsh does some js, and felinks is an actively maintained fork of elinks with some js support as well.

Snowden's revelation that the NSA was in Google's network had their engineers pissed, and they immediately changed their architecture to make it more secure, encrypting internal connections. That doesn't make me want to use them less. And Snowden was compromised by Russia even before he went there.
