  • Not the exact (and only) solution, but some manufacturers may have a Do Not Sell My Information request form. Subaru has it on their website and I submitted a request for myself. Obviously we won’t know if they actually follow through, but it’s worth a shot. Some people have experimented with going in and actually disabling the antenna that the car uses for telemetry, but that’s at your own risk and likely voiding warranties in the process.

    I think using carplay/android auto isn’t as bad since the infotainment system is just projecting your phone’s display, so your phone’s privacy policies apply. Whether you trust those policies is of course up to you. Cars that force their own systems (like GMC I think) are more risky because you are using it directly.



  • Does anyone else completely disconnect from security outside their jobs? I’m not talking about not being personally secure outside work, but more on not doing anything security-related on your spare time or hobbies. I know a lot of people and colleagues who live and breathe security. Outside of work, they spend their time doing the same things they do in the office, just removed from company resources of course.

    I on the other hand just disconnect. I make music and play casual sports as exercise. I don’t do any security related hobbies (other than securing my and my family’s personal computing environment of course).






  • The article literally states that it’s the lack of job opportunities because of the lack of transferable skills and having to only fill gaps in the job market, the pandemic, and the bad economy that’s causing them to go back. I’m just relaying what the source is saying, I’m not making or changing any story. The only person who claimed I was saying it’s the root issue is the other person I was replying to. I never said so even in my first comment. I have no idea how or why you think I need to project.

    If you think I have some agenda about turning this into an HK-China debate, then I’m sorry but it’s you who’s projecting. It’s so weird how people on here are so hostile and defensive when someone is just pointing out details written in the source article.





  • What a coincidence, because I saw a dead mouse on my front lawn yesterday when I went out to trim the grass. I know there’s a stray cat in my neighborhood so I’m pretty sure it’s the one shitting in my backyard (dogs can’t possibly get over the fence) and leaving dead rodents.
