  • Being up to date is the entire point and so typically there are only global options to either grab those updates from the vendor or host them internally on a central server but you wouldn’t want to slow roll or stage those updates since that fundamentally reduces the protection from zero days and novel attacks that the product is specifically there to detect and stop.

    That’s not your, or Crowdstrikes, decision to make. If organizations have applied settings to not install updates automatically then that’s what they expect to happen and you need to honour it. You don’t “know best”. They do.


  • I may have missed something.

    Firefox 127 has introduced privacy tweaks that are causing user dissatisfaction, particularly due to changes like the separation of normal and private windows on the taskbar and the closing of private tabs when the main instance closes on iOS.

    This sounds like it would be the expected behaviour?

    • Despite user complaints, the update includes new privacy and security enhancements such as upgrading subresources from HTTP to HTTPS and masking CPU architecture to reduce fingerprinting.

    This sounds like a good thing?

    • Mozilla plans to address user feedback by reintroducing the “browser.privateWindowSeparation.enabled” preference as an opt-in and adding more intuitive privacy settings in future updates.

    This sounds like a good thing?




  • That was really interesting to read. A lot of people have been saying that Twitter had got a lot worse since ManBaby came along. Not being a user anymore I have nothing to dispute that with.

    What is interesting is the companies who are arguably making it ‘worse’ (partly) are backing that statement up by saying it’s better than it was for them. Easier to do business. Easier to make money. Easier to make it worse.

    I suppose that’s what happens when the owner sees moderation of this type of content as ‘censorship’.

    Twitter users confuse me. Maybe they double-down on the moderation of their own bubble so it’s not quite as bad for them.
