No, they can’t. The BIOS prompts the user to confirm the change on reboot. If the change is not confirmed, it doesn’t happen.

This type of attack has been seen in the wild for quite some time. Ultimately it’s a security vs convenience decision.

Any drive should read faster than media playback. I’d check the actual read speed and playback logs to make sure you’re not having other issues.

That doesn’t cover wallhacks.

SEO garbage has been around for much more than a decade. In fact, before Google got really good at search ranking, sites easily gamed the search engines.

I click the links to the source on the relevant part.

I wouldn’t do that without looking at the stock price history.

BS. It’s been falling since Dec 2023. And it’s been around the current level for the past year.

Nothing. The field isn’t strong enough to affect the drive. They have much stronger magnets inside them all the time.

You could just use any other object too.

The Internet is a free place, in the sense that it’s very, very public.

Expose the VPN and nothing else, if you can. There are always automated attacks scanning literally the entire Internet.

If you’re using stuff like torrent clients, you can bind just those containers to gluetun. I recommend doing that instead of all of them. And then yeah the VPN server on the host.

It should work, but you may need to fiddle with routing.

Maybe. For photographs, it’s definitely not unconstitutional to make it illegal, because people have a right to privacy (4th amendment sort of, and 10th because they’re state laws).

For Trump, and for non-photographic media, it’s a little different. For one, he’s a very public figure. Another, you could argue it’s artistic, satirical, or critical of him.

Now if you were doing it maliciously, with intent to harass him personally, then yeah that would probably be considered not protected and carry civil or criminal liability.

Yes, but that wording is misleading. Typical web discovery happens when a crawler finds a published link. It sounds like in this case, they’re just giving each and every share link to Google etc, even if the link is not posted anywhere public.
