I could see a few way to make it even closer to todays standards :

• Make the cookie message say “We care about your privacy” and mention their 1700+ partners in the same breath
• Add more ads in the article, every other paragraph or so

But it definitely feel accurate and gets the point accross…

What else would you good people add to the list ?

Have they rolled out the ads yet ? I feel like they keep teasing it but I might have missed the roll out and the backlash (there is no way there would not be SOME backlash)

Oh but I have them !
Every day an email is sent out with the backup status.
Every day I got my email in the morning with the back up logs.
For years.
I associated email received to backup successful, until a month or so when my vpn broke and the emails where just “could not connect”, but it took me a while to bother actually opening the message body as it had always been the same for years.

So I’ll manage it differently, have the email subject be more explicit about a success or a failure amongst other things.
Always learning :^)

Then it turns out your monitoring system failed and FUCK IT’S BEEN A MONTH SINCE THE LAST PROPER BACKUP

Wait…
What happens if you take the cat out of the box then ?

Fuck I was so eager for the frame, but as a standalone device it’ll surely be impacted as well…

Sounds like a solid rec for her usecase :)

I ended up going with Crowdsec.

The setup was a bit of a challenge as I like to do it the RTFM way abd that there is a bunch of concepts to grasp before you really understand what you are doing, but since then it’s been working pretty great ! And it’s free (as in you are providing them with data on the occurence of threats etc, so you don’t pay)

I’m properly in awe at this project. Not only does it support a wide range of protocols and runs practically everywhere, but it can play audio, video, display images and has keyboard shortcut support ???

It’s got everything I could think about and so much more.

I can’t wait to try it out !

Thank you so much for your time and for making this open source.
