Wat about immigration agents? They are the first point of contact for foreigners right?


What about ByteDance’s freedom of expression?


ByteDance is a Chinese corporation. The US federal government does not govern it and has no responsibility to allow a Chinese corporation to express itself in the US by publishing propaganda.


They are owned by a Chinese company and thus have no rights


What about Meta's freedom of expression in China?

This is the foundation of reciprocal trade agreements: We don't put tariffs on your cars if you don't put tariffs on ours. We don't ban your social media companies if you don't ban ours.


US freedom of expression applies only to US residents not to foreign govt controlled companies lol. And that is good.


Does the Citizens United ruling have a say?


No. Citizens United covered PAC donations. Nowhere did it rule that the government cannot restrict foreign social media companies.


Nope, go read it. Once again, the first amendment applies only to US entities.

Unless China is part of the US, I don't see how CCP/Bytedance can get First Amendment protection.


Deepseek (https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-Coder?tab=readme-ov-...) code is MIT and the model license is available too.

And chacha20-poly1305 is listed in the SSH MiTM issue.

https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-23:19...


Wireguard also uses ChaCha20-Poly1305, but I am not sure it's relevant? I believe that attack is specific to SSH:

"The attack exploits weaknesses in the specification of SSH paired with widespread algorithms, namely ChaCha20-Poly1305 and CBC-EtM, to remove an arbitrary number of protected messages at the beginning of the secure channel, thus breaking integrity."

Thanks AT&T!


Don’t ruin their fiction with facts.


Postgres has always been cool.


Another helix formation from Cambridge? Hrm.


Pizza Hut.


You're aware that there are two cuts of the movie? The US version was Taco Bell, and the international version was Pizza Hut. Both are owned by Yum Brands.


I had no idea there were two cuts. Pizza Hut is a good choice too :)


How did this update get passed the App Store audit?
