If I wrote a book about Bean Man the super hero, than I should maintain all rights to the concept of Bean Man and the related "characters/world" until I die or put it under public domain. The rights can be inherited by 1 generation, but they have 10 years to do something relevant with it or it falls into public domain. Also if the IP sits unused for 20 years, clear derivatives can be made so long as it's clear the original creator was not involved.

However, the actual product, the books I write fall into a different category. After 30 years or, 1 year unavailable to legally purchase by an average person*, the books become free to share under a creative common license that does not allow for derivatives, or profit. In other words, the book it self becomes free for everyone but someone can't take the IP and make a new "Bean Man" story (unless the copyright is no longer in effect).

* if I try some shit like sell it cash only on the 31st of February or charge a absurd price, all of my past and future works will be put into public domain as a "fuck you for being piece of shit".

Governments are crowd sourcing their problems instead of hiring someone qualified to solve them.

I thinks there's a bit much doom and gloom right now.

If new pixels don't support GrapheneOS that will suck.

If Motorola comes thru with GrapheneOS support next year, we will be back to where we are now. 1 manufacture, but at least it won't be google anymore. Yes, its only on their flagship, but hardware trickles down within a few years. I'd be surprised if the whole 2030 line up isn't supported (assuming they don't drop the ball).

In my option, if anyone has an older phone, they should consider getting a new or used 9 or 10 to get through the next few years, while we wait and see what happens.

"You were doing that an hour ago."

If some random guy had a 24/7 mic, camera, and GPS access to my daughter, it'd be obligated to go shoot him. Why should a company be treated any different?

Another reason I give, that's less "boogyman gonna get your kids", is we close our windows when talking about money so the neighbors don't here us. Not because we're doing something bad, but because its none of their business. That's what privacy is.

And both are red meats too.

Sorry, no. Just a human.

That explains McDonald's slogan (and their app).

I know two simple words that would explain the demon's horror.

They might allow the browser's built in manager. Good chance if they're a Microsoft shill, edge's built in would be better than nothing....although it's Microsoft so a text file might be better.

IT probably bans them because they can't access the data. Keepass files are some kind of container, you can store any file with in it. Great when you want save a txt doc with 2fa recovery codes or something and also not a bad way to send a payload that's impossible to scan. "I'm going on vacation, please use this keypass file for vendor XYZ, open the file within for the vendors contact info".

Not sure a user's brain is secure either. A lot of hacks are through phishing schemes.
