schestowitz | I was thinking exactly about this yesterday while bored in the steam room. typicaLLY, for most wordpress installs for example, the instances are self-hosted. it means that the users have complete control over the source code (PHP) and they are free to reject the software, reject updates, move away, etc. A lot of this changes with WordPress.com or Drupal Gardens, where people basically hand over control to some companies which gives | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | no access to source code. WordPress' parent company, Automattic, has something called WordPress MU for years now... it's the multi-user version, but I am sure they modify it before putting it on wordpress.com, maybe for advertising, tracking, etc. Nobody knows! But there are business models there, the CEO had come from Yahoo! Anyway, it's becoming like Facebook. People have no say on how the future development goes and they must | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | accept the changes sooner or later. I thought about this in the context of wordpress auto-update, which can be hijacked or misused (without you ever finding out, due to a national security letter - NSL). | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | RMS foresaw many of these issues with clouds, which are think are hype that the governments are happy to subsidise as it gives corporations control and centralises the Web a bit... it's like broadcast. The lion's share of web use is now Google, Facebook, etc. Yes, there are other sites and there is relatively free speech, but too few people exercise this freedom. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | I used dropbox quite briedly with my wife... until Mega came, claiming privacy advantages. This coincided with the name dropbox appearing in the PRISM presentations. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | Techrights is going to deal more with privacy; I used to think it was a pet peeve and a silly obsession, but I no longer think this way. No privacy means that it's easy to crush dissent. David Miranda carried some storage devices and UK authorities somehow knew this. He wasn't breaking the law, but they harassed him because he and his partner (Greenwald) have enormous power now... to induce political change. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | Yesterday i paid for tuxmachines, payment will clear soon and then I will use that for much of my daily Linux news picks. I think I'll use techrights more to talk about what the name suggests: tech rights. Now sure how to fuse those two sites together yet. I don't want to alienate readers of either site by changing the platform's methods of publishing. I think that drupal will drive techrights one day, just as it runs tuxmachines. I | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | don't want to run "just a blog" all the time. WordPress is for blogs. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | Going back to the 'cloud' hype, is it fair to say that it's a thing to hit hard against? Microsoft's dying monopoly is now being replaced -- without success -- by so-called "Windows online" or whatever, including Skype for IM+VOIP, all sorts of mobile apps with data on the server side, etc. Microsoft does many other things from which an anti-cloud movement will suffer. Apple moves in this direction more slowly; hardware sales and | Nov 05 14:04 |

schestowitz_log_ | Megaupload is a very different thing. Think for a moment why we need such sites. They're like a conduit of sharing files, e.g. ZIP files we may want to share with a colleague when no file server is available and there's no knowledge of ssh/scp. What's more, there is an index of resources online. This is very different from what Amazon, Microsoft and Google use 'cloud' for... | Nov 05 14:47 |

schestowitz | Hi Rianne, | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | In a few days we'll be removing an old Facebook setting you've used in the past. You'll see an announcement on Facebook and have several chances to learn about this before then. We just wanted to tell you about this in advance so you have time to review what's changing and understand your privacy options. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Nov 05 20:15 | |
schestowitz | What's changing: We're removing an old search setting called "Who can look up your Timeline by name"—but this won't change who can see what you've shared on Facebook. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | What did this setting do? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | "Who can look up your Timeline by name" controlled who could find your Timeline by typing your name in search. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | What will happen when the setting is removed? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Anyone will be able to look up your Timeline by your name — but if they go to your Timeline, they'll only see what they already have permission to see. Removing this setting doesn't change who can see your photos, status updates or other things you've shared. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Why is Facebook removing this setting? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | When we created this setting, the only way to find you on Facebook was to search for your specific name. Now, people can come across your Timeline in other ways: for example if a friend tags you in a photo, which links to your Timeline, or if people search for phrases like "People who like The Beatles," or "People who live in Seattle," in Graph Search. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Today, the best way to manage who sees your stuff is to use your Privacy Shortcuts (just click the lock icon at the top of every page of the Facebook website), and to choose who to share with when you post new photos and updates. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | What's next? | Nov 05 20:16 |
schestowitz | You'll have more chances to review this info before the setting is removed—and we'll remind you on Facebook. | Nov 05 20:16 |
schestowitz | Want to review your privacy choices now? Here are some things you can do: | Nov 05 20:16 |
schestowitz | If you want to quickly limit the audience of things you've shared in the past to Friends, visit your privacy settings. | Nov 05 20:16 |
schestowitz | Each time you share a photo, link or status update, you can set the privacy for that specific post. | Nov 05 20:16 |
schestowitz | Check out what you've shared in the past—and who can see that info—by going to your activity log. To get to your activity log, click the lock icon at the top of any page to open your privacy shortcuts. | Nov 05 20:16 |

schestowitz | Back doors are fine... if they're OURS! That's the US policy pretty much. Because we're the "Good Guys"... but anyway, I think RMS has to worry about Russia and the US (I heard once that he's afraid of Russia) more than the Chinese - he seems to visit China a lot. | Nov 09 08:39 |

schestowitz | I was thinking exactly about this yesterday while bored in the steam room. typicaLLY, for most wordpress installs for example, the instances are self-hosted. it means that the users have complete control over the source code (PHP) and they are free to reject the software, reject updates, move away, etc. A lot of this changes with WordPress.com or Drupal Gardens, where people basically hand over control to some companies which gives | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | no access to source code. WordPress' parent company, Automattic, has something called WordPress MU for years now... it's the multi-user version, but I am sure they modify it before putting it on wordpress.com, maybe for advertising, tracking, etc. Nobody knows! But there are business models there, the CEO had come from Yahoo! Anyway, it's becoming like Facebook. People have no say on how the future development goes and they must | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | accept the changes sooner or later. I thought about this in the context of wordpress auto-update, which can be hijacked or misused (without you ever finding out, due to a national security letter - NSL). | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | RMS foresaw many of these issues with clouds, which are think are hype that the governments are happy to subsidise as it gives corporations control and centralises the Web a bit... it's like broadcast. The lion's share of web use is now Google, Facebook, etc. Yes, there are other sites and there is relatively free speech, but too few people exercise this freedom. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | I used dropbox quite briedly with my wife... until Mega came, claiming privacy advantages. This coincided with the name dropbox appearing in the PRISM presentations. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | Techrights is going to deal more with privacy; I used to think it was a pet peeve and a silly obsession, but I no longer think this way. No privacy means that it's easy to crush dissent. David Miranda carried some storage devices and UK authorities somehow knew this. He wasn't breaking the law, but they harassed him because he and his partner (Greenwald) have enormous power now... to induce political change. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | Yesterday i paid for tuxmachines, payment will clear soon and then I will use that for much of my daily Linux news picks. I think I'll use techrights more to talk about what the name suggests: tech rights. Now sure how to fuse those two sites together yet. I don't want to alienate readers of either site by changing the platform's methods of publishing. I think that drupal will drive techrights one day, just as it runs tuxmachines. I | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | don't want to run "just a blog" all the time. WordPress is for blogs. | Nov 05 14:04 |
schestowitz | Going back to the 'cloud' hype, is it fair to say that it's a thing to hit hard against? Microsoft's dying monopoly is now being replaced -- without success -- by so-called "Windows online" or whatever, including Skype for IM+VOIP, all sorts of mobile apps with data on the server side, etc. Microsoft does many other things from which an anti-cloud movement will suffer. Apple moves in this direction more slowly; hardware sales and | Nov 05 14:04 |

schestowitz_log_ | Megaupload is a very different thing. Think for a moment why we need such sites. They're like a conduit of sharing files, e.g. ZIP files we may want to share with a colleague when no file server is available and there's no knowledge of ssh/scp. What's more, there is an index of resources online. This is very different from what Amazon, Microsoft and Google use 'cloud' for... | Nov 05 14:47 |

schestowitz | Hi Rianne, | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | In a few days we'll be removing an old Facebook setting you've used in the past. You'll see an announcement on Facebook and have several chances to learn about this before then. We just wanted to tell you about this in advance so you have time to review what's changing and understand your privacy options. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Nov 05 20:15 | |
schestowitz | What's changing: We're removing an old search setting called "Who can look up your Timeline by name"—but this won't change who can see what you've shared on Facebook. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | What did this setting do? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | "Who can look up your Timeline by name" controlled who could find your Timeline by typing your name in search. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | What will happen when the setting is removed? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Anyone will be able to look up your Timeline by your name — but if they go to your Timeline, they'll only see what they already have permission to see. Removing this setting doesn't change who can see your photos, status updates or other things you've shared. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Why is Facebook removing this setting? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | When we created this setting, the only way to find you on Facebook was to search for your specific name. Now, people can come across your Timeline in other ways: for example if a friend tags you in a photo, which links to your Timeline, or if people search for phrases like "People who like The Beatles," or "People who live in Seattle," in Graph Search. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Today, the best way to manage who sees your stuff is to use your Privacy Shortcuts (just click the lock icon at the top of every page of the Facebook website), and to choose who to share with when you post new photos and updates. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | What's next? | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | You'll have more chances to review this info before the setting is removed—and we'll remind you on Facebook. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Want to review your privacy choices now? Here are some things you can do: | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | If you want to quickly limit the audience of things you've shared in the past to Friends, visit your privacy settings. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Each time you share a photo, link or status update, you can set the privacy for that specific post. | Nov 05 20:15 |
schestowitz | Check out what you've shared in the past—and who can see that info—by going to your activity log. To get to your activity log, click the lock icon at the top of any page to open your privacy shortcuts. | Nov 05 20:16 |

schestowitz | Thanks, Lee. The domain is tuxmachines.org. Currently it points to a server in the US and I wish to change its ownership to me (I have transfer code). At a later date I need it to point to anorher nameserver and IPs (it will be hosted by a friend of mine). Does the nameserver change incur further charges? | Nov 08 21:10 |
