Authoritarian China acting like authoritarian China. What a surprise

tired_n_bored , 2 months ago to Selfhosted in Do you encrypt your data drives?

No. I run my servers on low quality shit and I expect them to break any time. Never had to perform a data recovery but if I need, I'll thank myself I didn't encrypt my pics

tired_n_bored , 3 months ago to Privacy in EU moving towards total monetary surveillance and banning all anonymous payments

Man I am on your side. I love privacy and security. I can't stand "for the kids" rhetoric. I wouldn't be using Lemmy otherwise. But The limit to 5k€ per transaction is really useful, has already damaged mafia, and prevents big chunks of money to go untraced, leaving room for privacy for regular people. In an ideal world I would be against such action, but I do believe this is the best thing to do when 10% of your GDP is produced illegally.

I also want to apologize for my previous message which could have been interpreted as passive aggressive, it was not intended as such.

If banks and shops don't accept and give paper money to randoms, bad people have a more difficult life.

It is not only bombs and guns, it's an intricated system of black market, black job that Redditors from other countries have no idea about 👍

I'm all for privacy and I'd use Monero all the time, but this kind of regulations heavily damaged the mafia so tbh let's go for it. I'm not gonna spend 3k per transaction regardless

First of all, you can operate a fully FOSS firmware on your cameras: see OpenIPC (it needs some soldering tho).
Second, you can try Frigate or ZoneMinder as NVR.
