⚡️AGPL is not FOSS

Security researcher Jeffrey Paul – known for exposing macOS OCSP tracking of every Mac user and the apps they opened – is taking aim at the Affero GNU Public License (AGPL).

Released in 2007, the #AGPL was meant to close a #GPL loophole for “providers” like AWS who run Free Software in the cloud without distributing it. It obligates them to publish any changes they make.

The Free Software Foundation wanted this, but Paul argues it violates the first principle of Free Software: the freedoms are permissions, not obligations. It’s also not viable to follow AGPL in a normal development flow, which would need to update a link to the source in real time, as soon as changes were made.

We use AGPL software for Above Share. We felt that this was great from a privacy perspective, but I can see Pauls point - it doesn’t feel like a license, it feels like more restrictions.

"Fun fact:

Israel kidnapped a 15-year old American boy, caged him in Megiddo prison without trial (where children are regularly raped), starved him of 25 lbs, denied him medical care after he contracted scabies—no one hearing from him since.

Oh, and US taxpayers covered the bill."

"In the not-so-distant future, tyranny won’t march forth in jackboots and uniforms — it will arrive in the form of robots and drones. Conventional weapons and munitions will no longer be adequate. BOTSTOPPERS sparks the urgent conversation about the next frontier of the Second Amendment — exploring emerging technology, inventive defenses, and cutting-edge civilian weapons systems designed to provide a check against next-gen authoritarianism. Just as important, we must ensure that the laws protect the right of We the People to access this technology — tools built to keep liberty alive in a world of ever-stronger, non-human adversaries."

Derinkuyu: Turkey’s Hidden Underground City

Beneath the hills of Cappadocia lies a vast underground network of tunnels and chambers carved deep into the Earth. Some believe it was built as a refuge from an ancient cataclysm, a subterranean vault where thousands could survive while the world above was plunged into chaos.

Baalbek: The Temple of Baal and the Impossible Stones

In modern-day Lebanon lies Baalbek, named for Baal, a deity worshiped by the Canaanites and Phoenicians. Legends say it was built by giants or an advanced civilization now vanished from history. The Romans later transformed it into the City of the Sun.

Its platform holds the Trilithon, three stones each weighing about 800 tons, while nearby rests a single block over 1,600 tons, the largest ever cut by human hands. How they were moved and placed with such precision remains a mystery.
