@AlarmZK the link you had probably changed anyway. the project split. One fork is here: https://codeberg.org/themusicgod1/cloudflare-tor The other fork is more bleeding edge with more sites, but the repo host for it (git.fuwafuwa.moe) seems to be down a few days now.

@acesabe i assumed they were a threat to my food, so I sealed everything in the pantry but they never seemed to go there anyway, which I found odd.

@acesabe I think they're weevils. I had no idea they were beneficial cleaning bugs. I kept finding dead weevils. No idea where they came from, or why they surface and then die shortly after. Guess they run out of mold.

@eletrotupi @glitterwitch a BWC is a cheap way to improve quality control.

@glitterwitch @eletrotupi "The NYPD was mandated in 2013 by Manhattan federal Judge Analisa Torres to start a pilot program for body-worn cameras as a way to fix the racial disparity" <= so the purpose was not to reduce violence, it was to promote racial equality, and the Stanford study supports that.

@eletrotupi @glitterwitch from the CNN link: "while the number of stops increased, the number of civilian complaints levied against officers decreased by 21%" "This study finds that the placement of BWCs (body-worn cameras) on officers can increase their compliance with department directives to document stops of citizens,"

@glitterwitch @eletrotupi consider the recent case where an Ohio cop turned off his camera before shooting dead a black man & not rendering aid. The fact that he turned it off is in itself incriminating, coupled with the bits of footage they still got. Had there been no camera at all, it would have been purely a cops word against a dead man's word. That cop would still be working instead of going to trial.

@eletrotupi @glitterwitch Unwarranted surveillance is generally abusive for the the reason pointed out by Snowden, but exceptionally police encounters are different b/c you already lose the freedom privacy gives when under direct police observation. In that case, the cameras protect you from police misconduct. In effect, the *cop* is less free, and rightly so.

@glitterwitch @eletrotupi "Under observation, we act less free, which means we effectively are less free." --Edward Snowden

@eletrotupi @glitterwitch can you give a link to that study? It contradicts everything we've seen. Cameras have proven to reduce violence over decades. It's in fact why prisons have cameras, according to Edward Snowden.

@eletrotupi @glitterwitch The publication => https://web.stanford.edu/~eberhard/downloads/2017-LanguageFromPoliceBodyCameraFootage.pdf

@glitterwitch @eletrotupi without body cams, that study would not have been possible. Financing body cams supports the cause underpinning the defund police lobby.

@eletrotupi @glitterwitch Stanford studied police cam footage for over a year, and found a strong correlation between whether the cop was respectful (using words like "please", "sir", "ma'am" vs. barking out orders with words like "bro", "homey") and skin color. And if you study police attitude & language for a particular intervention, the race could be determined ~70% of the time.

@admin thanks but i'm aware of those. Those are disposable/throw away accounts, whereas SG and the others I mentioned are /forwarding/ accounts.

@tallship @chiraag they simply forgot to put it in the ToS & PP a clause that I agree to share info with or transact with CloudFlare on their behalf.

@ulPa appreciate the tip but that's another beast.. anonbox.net is a disposable email svc, not a forwarding service. So if i give my bank a anonbox.net address, i wouldn't know when they send me something.

@chiraag I'm willing to view CF sites via archive.org b/c that doesn't require me connecting to CF, but CF sites that need me to HTTP POST are SOL. And most importantly, no service that gets my money is a CloudFlare site. My domain registrar took my money & then switched to CF (#BaitAndSwitch), so I have a moral obligation to fight for a refund.

@chiraag i appreciate the tip about Decentraleyes or LocalCDN. At 1st glance I don't see how they can prevent CloudFlare from seeing the traffic, but they look useful anyway. If I understand correctly, they reduce dependency on 3rd party js.
