  • Translation (by Deepl)

    When Big Tech sets its own rules, Europe has failed Brussels is apparently prepared to make far-reaching concessions to Trump. This means the idea of digital sovereignty and Europe’s digital decade is over 

    Donald Trump wants simpler rules for US companies - and is returning the favour for generous campaign donations. Brussels threatens to buckle.

    The big digital companies should have a say in which rules apply to them in future, at least that is what is currently being discussed behind closed doors. It’s like letting the tobacco companies run a lung clinic. Or putting the oil lobby in charge of protecting coastal waters. In Brussels, the dog should watch the sausage. Even the EU Commission’s first ideas for appeasing Trump’s anger were hair-raising. After all, the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the centrepiece of Europe’s digital decade and part of a whole series of sister regulations, could be softened if Washington so wished.




  • I would copy the existing system onto a new system:

    1. Update system to the latest packages
    2. Create a new base system using the same distro
    3. Check which packages are not on the new system, add them to your playbook
    4. Install packages on new system
    5. This will take some time. Run a find of all files and pass them to md5sum or sha512sum to get a list of files with their checksum. Compare the list from the old system to the new system.
    6. Update your playbook with these findings. Template is probably the way to go, Lineinfile might be good as well, use copy if nothimg else works.
    7. Check firewall settings and update your playbook.

    Anyhow this will take some iterations, but while you have a copy of your ‘production’ system, you can test on your ‘test’ machine until you have the same functionality.

    You are confusing the things you do on your mobile device with actual location tracking. GrapheneOS limits the information sent Home, to Google et al. It does not provide any protection from triangulation of your operator, as your telco modem has a unique identifier. The only way to get around that is by turning off your phone and pulling out the battery (certain phone models keep your telco modem on even though your phone is off). This kind of defeats the purpose of having a mobile device. Unless of course you’re also a low-level hardware programmer in possession of the telco modem specs, api’s and the necessary equipment to update your telco modem firmware.

    But you do you…
