Meta devised an ingenious system (“localhost tracking”) that bypassed Android’s sandbox protections to identify you while browsing on your mobile phone — even if you used a VPN, the browser’s incognito mode, and refused or deleted cookies in every session.
This is the process through which Meta (Facebook/Instagram) managed to link what you do in your browser (for example, visiting a news site or an online store) with your real identity (your Facebook or Instagram account), even if you never logged into your account through the browser or anything like that.
Meta accomplishes this through two invisible channels that exchange information:
(i) The Facebook or Instagram app running in the background on your phone, even when you’re not using it.
(ii) Meta’s tracking scripts (the now-pulled illegal brainchild uncovered last week), which operate inside your mobile web browser.
#Footage that has survived over 30 years, saved largely thanks to Dale Vince, who funded the digitisation, and who took on the role of outrider on the day. Some once familiar faces and voices here, Mo, Phil and Don, now long since passed, brought back to bear witness to the shameful barbarism of that day, ‘the worst police treatment of people’ in living memory, for which there was no public inquiry, but about which we will neither forgive nor forget. thebeanfield.co.uk/

Some of you protesting are far too into publicly posting identifiable pics and videos of folks in protest crowds without good reason.
If you brought a camera to the protest point it at the authorities, not your compatriots. Document and publicize incidents of abuse, but don't facilitate your fellow protestors being identified and punished for showing up. Assume every face you post will be recognized and catalogued. They're not there to be your photo op.
@Infoseepage It's easy to get consent to photograph and post someone with their sign, or just photograph the sign while cropping the rest of the person out.
look, the explanation for what happened here is weird. so a guy dressed exactly like a cop and driving a cop car was seen emerging from a house that some other cops just happened to be checking on, they exchanged gunfire, no one was hit, he went back into the house, and .... ??? what? disappeared into thin air?
fwiw I am fully open to the possibility that something weird happened and the cops just coincidentally both showed up at the crime scene **and** let the mysterious killer get away, but also uhhhhh cops lie **constantly** so let's see all the evidence.
the suspect who dresses and acts exactly like a cop and who somehow wasn't apprehended by the cops who caught him in the act is also possibly targeting a protest event that the cops hate, so make sure you don't attend that event, everyone!
hey, how did the roving murderer who killed two people and injured two more and was caught in the act by cops **whom he shot at** manage to FUCKING ESCAPE ON FOOT?? WITHOUT A TRACE. has anyone asked that.
guys, i'm telling you, there is something **fucking weird** about this whole thing. the story keeps changing because someone is lying! beige.party/@Lana/114694033292…

- On May 29, 2025, a new Service Control feature was added for quota policy checks. - This feature did not have appropriate error handling, nor was it feature flag protected. - On June 12, 2025, a policy with unintended blank fields was inserted and replicated globally within seconds. - The blank fields caused a null pointer which caused the binaries to go into a crash loop.
Very predictable outcome but food distribution in Gaza was stopped completely shortly before the atk on Iran
And, while major US/UK outlets were busy cheerleading a massive escalation (an explicit violation of international law, and the UN charter)-- NATO in general saw this as an opportunity to stop caring about the genocide
How recently was it DE, FR, UK, all pretended to care just long enough for press to pen articles in a cynical ploy to distance themselves from their crimes? Weeks?
"Germany said on Saturday that the danger of further escalation in the Middle East is real and that Iran’s nuclear programme poses a threat not just to Israel"
DE leaders laying out their priorities for everyone to see
To start we are all pretending that its not a widely known fact that Israel illegally has nuclear weapons
Israel has been breaking international law, violating the UN charter, doing pre-emptive strikes, & committing a genocide-- but perceived threats to them remain the priority
Matt Gaetz calls for urgent action against those funding and coordinating the ongoing unrest in Los Angeles. He says it's time to follow the money and hold the same financial networks accountable—just like the government did with high-profile political cases.

Two men impersonating police shot Democratic lawmakers. Wow, if only anyone would have predicted this extremely obvious crime after allowing law enforcement to hide their identities and agencies while wearing masks and acting like gangsters
To put this in context, one Democratic state representative and one Democratic state senator were shot. Dems have a one seat majority in the senate. Dems and Republicans are tied in the house. If both were to die, Republicans take over the state legislature. This is a coup attempt.
PLEASE BOOST: Icelandair broke two wheels off my new suitcase. I'm stuck in KEF airport in Iceland. Is the reach of Mastodon powerful enough that it can find someone nearby who can help me get a new suitcase that has dimensions that can be checked on Austrian Air? I think that's 158 cm linear.
Please no more "have you tried". I have tried many things. Folks here do not care, largely. There are some folks in the special assistance office who've tried a bit, but they say they cannot do much for me, including helping me call the store in town to make sure they have what I need before I pay for a taxi there.
This request was purely on the off chance that some Icelanders were on Mastodon, close to Keflavik, and willing to help.
I can't make too many replies to "have you tried".

A lot of companies seem to misunderstand the role of pay in hiring and retaining smart people. In my first year at Microsoft Research I listened to a (normally sensible) member of the lab’s leadership team explain that the bonus structure was there to incentivise good research. I looked around the room and wondered who had ever thought ‘well, I was going to do some mediocre research, but for 20% more money this year I will do something world leading!’ My guess: no one.
If you want to hire the best people, you are looking for the people who, if money didn’t matter, would do the job for free because they believe it’s important and care about the outcome. You don’t pay them well to persuade them to work. You pay them well so that they can afford to work on the things that they think are important. If smart people don’t think the things you’re doing are important then you should consider why you’re doing them.
This is especially true for executive compensation. The best CEOs are ones that care about the company’s products and want everyone to use them, not the ones that want to make the most money. This is especially true for non profits where your pool should start with people who care a lot about the organisation’s mission. Paying more (above a certain level) won’t find more of those people it will simply dilute the pool with people who are there for the money, not the mission.
EDIT: A lot of people seem to be misunderstanding this and think this is an argument to pay people badly. It absolutely isn't. If you pay people badly, they will spend a lot if time thinking about money. Your job as a manager is to remove problems. Money removes a lot of problems. But a lot of problems cannot be removed by applying money. If someone competent is being told to do nonsense work that they know will cause problems in the long run, no amount of money will make them motivated. The problems that can be solved with money are the easy ones.
Report from the Amsterdam protest: there are a few hundred people here and two uniformed Dutch cops at a respectful distance very casually chatting with each other while they wait for nothing to hurry up and happen.
A lot of people are tourists (American or otherwise) who happened to see the protest because the US consulate is between several museums. They’re all like “hell yeah I’m stopping for this.” Passing bikes ring their bells (some of them might even be in support and not because Americans are standing on the bike path). I don’t know where someone in Amsterdam found an enormous California bear flag on such short notice
And yes, everyone loves Odin, who randomly decided to put his paws up on my shoulders when we were very visible to the crowd

in reply to Sherifa Zuhur • • •The BBC writes today:
"Iran clearly believes American forces endorsed and at least tacitly supported Israel's attacks."
They believe that, because it's true. I know the BBC wants to cram FUD in every sentence, but this is just pathetic.
