Do you know about the #EEE (Embrace, extend, and extinguish) attack that google made against the xmpp service?

@SecurityWriter

If is is not 100% open source, then how can you be expected to vet the result?

Ich verstehe die Begeisterung der Nutzer nicht wenn #Microsoft, #Apple, #Google und co sich für #Opensource öffnen.

Ebenso die Nutzung von #Microsoft s #github

Diese Konzerne möchten langfristig #Opensource vernichten.

Es gibt sogar einen Begriff dafür.

#EEE = Embrace, extend, and exterminate

"A New Hampshire man is fighting for his life because of a mosquito bite. Fifty-four-year-old Joe Casey of Kensington has tested positive for three mosquito-borne viruses, including eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) and West Nile Virus..... He was positive for EEE, for West Nile, and St. Louis Encephalitis, but the CDC, the infectious disease doctors, they don’t know which one is making him this sick..."

Deadly mosquito virus has Mass. towns urging people to stay in at night

A rare but deadly #disease spread by #mosquitoes has nearly a dozen Massachusetts communities on alert,
prompting some towns to close parks after dusk, restrict outdoor activities and reschedule public events.

Massachusetts health officials this month confirmed the state’s first human case of the #eastern #equine #encephalitis virus this year
— a man in his 80s exposed in Worcester County, west of Boston.

Ten communities are now designated at high or critical risk for the virus, health officials said Saturday.

#Plymouth, about 40 miles south of Boston, closed all public parks and fields from dusk until dawn, when mosquitoes are most active.

Nearby, #Oxford banned all outdoor activities on town property after 6 p.m.

“We have not seen an outbreak of #EEE for four years in Massachusetts,” Robbie Goldstein, the state’s department of public health commissioner, said in a statement.

“We need to use all our available tools to reduce risk and protect our communities. We are asking everyone to do their part.”

Canonical is in bed with Microsoft, so that is a clue.

When people have problems with Ubuntu, they may want to paint a broad brush and blame Linux. They can get discouraged, and not even try a different distro.

Now that #Threads is running faulty system's from #Facebook, what with the increasing amount of complaints similar to Facebook, I guess #Zuck committed #EEE against Threads.

LMAO.

#Instagram is weak, they can't do anything to stop Zuck! :p
