Please answer my question.

Please explain to me how this could be the first step towards something sinister. I absolutely don’t see it.

Oh yea, the freedom of

Sorry if I wasn’t clear about that. Abolishing IP laws won’t fix capitalism.

There are other solutions for that. Most of them as unrealistic as abolishing IP laws. But we could try universal basic income as a stopgap.

Have you considered that the problem of not being able to create art for recreational purposes without thinking about its monetary value is the actual issue here?

You’re right. As we all know people only started to create art after IP laws where established.

Nobody ever made something original just for the joy of it. It’s only fair that a single company has the exclusive rights on a pants-wearing mouse that looks a certain way for 95 years.

Nobody does anything anymore and we’ll all just die. Gotcha.

I’m fully in favour of abolishing IP law for everyone, ideally globally.

Public domain everything.

Where you bullied of Bluesky for saying something they didn’t like?

Americans eating like they got free healthcare or something.

Where do you think Samsung phones are made and by whom?

It’s also at around the same price point in Japan and Europe. I don’t think the tarriffs had an effect on the price.

It feels a bit like the author used AI as a buzzword to get people to click on an article about electronics recycling.

e-waste is a big issue affecting everyone and AI has lots of known issues. Mashing both of those things together doesn’t fix anything.

It ain’t so.

To use the “backdoor” an attacker needs to have full access to the esp32 powered device already.

It’s like claiming that being able to leave your desk without locking your PC is a backdoor in your OS.

Someone correct me if i’m wrong, but it looks like it’s not the big deal the original blog post makes it out to be.

To issue those undocumented HCI commands one either needs to hijack a computer/soc/mcu that is connected to an esp32 with HCI UART transport enabled or put malicious software on the esp itself.

The mac spoofing might be interesting for people building hacking tool, however.

Just pick one of the many registrars and server hosts that don’t care about takedown requests and host a website with them.

That way it stays more accessible to everyone.

I agree in principle but using Tor won’t affect DMCA takedowns.

So when you change the C interfaces, the Rust people will have to deal with the fallout, and will have to fix the Rust bindings.

I hope this won’t turn into a cat and mouse game.

I guess it would make it way more complicated to use other peoples code if that where the case.
