So in order to get VPNs to work, you have to enable ms' telemetry?
How much did the security services and the DoJ pay ms for this bug?

This protocol design means that a user's DNS requests are invisible to third-party observers, such as ISPs; and all DoH DNS queries and responses hidden inside a cloud of encrypted connections, indistinguishable from the other HTTPS traffic.
In theory, the protocol is a dream from privacy advocates, but a nightmare for ISPs and makers of network security appliances.
The internet sees censorship as damage and routes around it.

Isn't it funny how British Telecom (a company that doesn't make money by reaping and selling users' personal data) is in favour of DoH?

Who steals my location data steals trash.
The fact that companies can become the biggest companies in the world just by conning other companies to buy this essentially useless data never ceases to amaze me -- and I'm pleased to see that many suckers companies are beginning to realise that the extremely meagre benefits attained from buying this data are far outweighed by the costs involved in purchasing and processing it.
Mind you, it wouldn't surprise me if government offices were among their biggest customers.

That only works for Google (who isn't doing the stuff being called out here and who plan to close these holes in the next version of Android), not SleazyThirdPartyAdvertiscum.com.

Quote: Egelman concluded his talk by saying Google paid his team a bug bounty for disclosing these vulnerabilities and promised fixes for them in the upcoming Android Q release. He called that not good enough, saying “The vast majority of Android users have older devices and won’t be getting over-the-air updates that patch this vulnerability.”
I'm not quite sure what this idiot wants Google to do instead; other than putting out a patch in a future version there's not much they can do. They are incrementally redesigning the OS to increase the amount of things that can be patched without having to go through OEMs/Carriers; but again these changes can only be done in new OS releases.

There's so much great performance-related stuff happening in the .NET world right now. Span? Why not a div?

Because span more often has class.

The U.K.’s antitrust watchdog today opened an investigation to probe Facebook Inc. and Google LLC’s dominance of the digital ad market and also weigh potential regulatory restrictions on the companies. And you know how fast that government does things

Still, it's another sign that the gravy train is coming to a halt.
But I'm sure they they'll bribe and bully as much as they can (which is a lot) to keep it rolling as long as possible.
