"Like so many applications of AI, this new power is likely to be a double-edged sword: It may help people identify the locations of old snapshots from relatives, or allow field biologists to conduct rapid surveys of entire regions for invasive plant species, to name but a few of many likely beneficial applications.

"But it also could be used to expose information about individuals that they never intended to share, says Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst at the American Civil Liberties Union who studies technology. Stanley worries that similar technology, which he feels will almost certainly become widely available, could be used for government surveillance, corporate tracking or even stalking."

Too narrow, hidden, minimal feedback...

Murena is launching a smartphone with physical switches to turn off the camera, microphone and network.

My Nextcloud instance runs reasonably well on the server side, and my desktop and phone are able to render the web UI reasonably fast when I want to...but I also have a tablet with slow hardware and wifi that is just unusably slow with the Nextcloud web UI. Like, it'll take multiple seconds to render the login page, but only on this one device.

Does anyone know of an alternative web UI for Nextcloud that's optimized for downloading and rendering on slow connections/hardware?

Edit: I'm already using Nextcloud, and I'm using it for quite a few different services, some of which have native apps available, some of which don't, and of course even when an app is available, not all the features are implemented in it. The specific device I'm dealing with here is a Linux tablet, so while I can use native desktop applications for some features, it's not like it can just run Android apps. But the problem would apply to any comparably low-powered hardware like, say, an old laptop that can run native apps and efficiently-designed web applications well enough, but struggles with modern throw-a-million-javascript-libraries-at-it web development.

Does this mean we can finally stop using these barriers to accessibility?

STS (Secure Time Seeding) uses server time from SSL handshakes, which is fine when talking to other Microsoft servers, but other implementations put random data in that field to prevent fingerprinting.

I'm getting Cloudflare's JavaScript-based screening page when trying to hit tinyurl.com with curl and extract the real link. Anyone know if this has been going on for a while?
