🚨 Printer apocalypse! 🚨 The clueless printer overlords served a malware buffet for months, then shrugged and called it "false positives" like it's a new hipster diet. 🍽️ Why bother with security when you can just redefine the problem? 🤷‍♂️

@Sable_Shade @RustyBertrand @RecurringBloatware so far, the biggest problem is the stubborn ignorance of #Mastodon #developers to properly implement absoultely basic features like a blocklist feed support, necessitating for #removal of #FalsePositives that people basically know how to use #git and instead of merge choose replace when ingesting.

  • This is a absolutely shit in terms of #UI & #UX and whilst the problem itself is controversial and I myself dislike it, I do acknowledge that a lot of people, espechally smaller instances, don't want to get serial-harrassed by reactionaires just because they didn't preemptively block them!

Considering @stratosphere hasn't had #FalsePositives until now, I'm shure @archlinux needs to get in touch with their #AUR #Admin and/or #Hetzner to unfuck this mess...

  • Really took me 5mins to workaround this but I think someone fecked up and I'm confident it's either Hetzner or the Admin.
