In Australia, which has mandatory voting, they literally just check your name off the voter roll when you arrive at the polling station. Each polling station has a list (digital or paper) of people registered to vote in that electorate. Aft

Cloudflare works with the UK government to facilitate blocks within their infra, I assume in exchange for being allowed to access UK network infrastructure. In the case that a blocked site resolved to a Cloudflare IP, it would likely be kic

I have been using Dark Reader for years and years. Sometimes I forget that some websites don't natively support dark mode until I accidentally turn it off for some reason. I recommend setting it to disabled by default, and manually ena

39% all goods exported from Australia in 2019-20 were to China. Of that 39%, over half of that was iron ore. Australian iron ore production is valued at $136 billion a year to the economy. Unfortunately, Australia really doesn't have m

Parent means IP as in Internet Protocol, not Intellectual property. The DNS for gnome.org resolves to 8.43.85.5, which lists Red Hat Inc. as the ISP. Indicating it's unlikely to be hosted by Fosshost.

ING only requires a customer number, and a four digit PIN for online banking access. The customer number is printed on the back of the cards and at the top of letters. There is no MFA. I wish I was joking. https://www.ing.com.au&

If they were to make the copy available for everyone through their own syndicator then sure, but they don't. The "copy" is only available for the original reader, who had legitimate access to the original anyway. Under copyri

Ah, on further reading it looks like there are a couple parts to it. I have only used the "Sign in with Apple" feature directly in apps, which only ever lets you create one for that app. However, apparently with an iCloud+ subscri

You can only create a small number of gmail accounts, since ever account needs to be linked to a valid phone number. Google actively work to prevent using their platform in this way.

You need a valid phone number to create a gmail account, and you can only have a few accounts attached to the same number. Google is "trusted" because they actively try to prevent spammers from joining their platform. Disposable e

The difference with Apple's hide my address feature, is that it will only give you one per site. So even though it's an address generated specifically for that website, it's still your "primary" email for that domai

What PII are you putting on a forum? All I can think of is email and password. Your password should be unique to the forum, and I would hardly say that an email address is PII. If you're super worried about email, just use an alias.

Are you including the increasing value of the BTC in that calculation? I imagine if all goes well, it would be worth a lot more than what it is today in 19 years. It might be impossible to ever withdraw the whole thing at that rate.

Interesting that you mention the "education sector". That sector seems to have a huge number of dodgy "training companies" covering all sorts of industries. My first ever job, straight out of college in the UK, at 18 yea
