We don't know if spacetime loops around or is infinite or has an expanding boundary. Best we got for reference is the cosmic background radiation, but it doesn't tell us about any center

Yeah so here's the next problem - downscaling attacks exists against those algorithms too.

Also, even if those attacks were prevented they're still going to look through basically your whole album if you trigger the alert

Apple had it report suspected matches, rather than warning locally

It got canceled because the fuzzy hashing algorithms turned out to be so insecure it's unfixable (easy to plant false positives)

The old design was built to scale to a few million users. The new backend is revised to handle ~hundreds of millions. They'll releasing bits and pieces at a time.

Sure, but the openness of the protocols, especially the portability of accounts, makes it hard for them to push negative changes on users.

He never had ownership. Not all investments provide ownership.

Bridgy started without that requirement and it pissed off too many Mastodonians so they reworked it

Bluesky is a public benefit corporation. That's very different from for profit

3rd party moderation tools already exists, using the same API as the official moderation system, available to subscribe to even directly in the official app. If you don't want bluesky's moderation decisions enforced, you can run a different client which don't apply the bluesky labels (or if the bluesky appview blocks something entirely, you can circumvent that and retrieve it directly from that user's PDS)

What

The network is specifically designed around portability and content addressing so they can't lock you in

it would never be a useful alternative to the Official Bubble maintained by the Bluesky corporation that you must submit to or be left out in the cold interacting with users only on alternate, small personal networks.

There are already plenty of people running their own self hosted PDS servers to host their account, talking to the rest of the bluesky users, using 3rd party moderation filters and 3rd party clients, with 3rd party feed generators to view stuff like topic specific feeds

Also there's bridgy so you can talk across Mastodon / bluesky by letting bridgy mirror posts and replies between the two networks
