»The French courts yesterday handed down an unfavorable ruling against Quad9 in a major case that undermines the transparency and stability of the internet. This decision in favor of beIN forces Quad9 to block the recursive DNS resolution for a number of domain names for users located in France. […]

For us, recursive DNS resolution is a neutral and passive service. We categorically refuse to alter or lie to you about the DNS responses you receive in a way that opposes your expectations. […]

As a result, we have made the difficult decision to withdraw Quad9 services from France as of Tuesday, November 24.«

Safari, on my Mac, has always been much more sluggish than Firefox or Chrome.

I found out the Bitwarden extension has a HUGE part in this: when it's enabled, the performance drops significantly.

The rise of personal AI agents is creating a challenge for banks, especially since LLMs don’t always follow instructions and can take unexpected actions with destructive consequences.

Standards for delegating authority to agents and confirming user consent have become an urgent need.

AI agents going rogue on your bank account is a risk that went from science fiction to real in the past year.

"News will be intermediated by AI, whether we like it or not." The solution will involve common infrastructure, open technology, data portability, and fighting against lock-in at all costs. #AI https://werd.io/news-will-be-intermediated-by-ai-whats-next/

Why it’s important to have well-funded programs for open source infrastructure: “In 2024, PHP underwent its first external security audit in years. The PHP Foundation secured funding from the @sovtechfund to organize this audit through OSTIF, and it was carried out by Quarkslab. While fixing one of the issues Quarkslab reported, a PHP core developer contracted by the PHP Foundation found the first signs of the OOM problem behind CVE-2026-109618.”
