Hello, tone-policing genocide-defender and/or carnist 👋

Instead of being mad about words, maybe you should think about why the words bother you more than the injustice they describe.

FYI: There is a dark pattern in the mobile app where, if you toggle the opt-out buttons in order from top to bottom, one of them will enable themselves.

Sandboxing does nothing for social-engineering attacks, which is what many of the malicious snaps were designed for.

And the thing that makes the Snap Store uniquely bad is that there's no human review. Anyone can throw up a malicious snap, and there are very good odds that it'll get served there. Even the Flathub, a community-run project, has human reviews before new apps get published. Canonical, despite having money and resources that community projects don't, can't seem to be bothered to take basic steps to protect their users.

Good point. Nothing in the article explicitly states that it's a copyright claim, but they do mention "protecting... [their] intellectual property". In any case, it's always easier for the website host to fold to cover their own asses than to continue hosting the content.

I agree with doing this, but the main drawback is that you can't easily check all of your unique aliases in HaveIBeenPwned without scripting something and paying for API access.

I have hundreds of unique aliases for my accounts, but no simple way to see when/if the services that use them are breached.
