why now all of a sudden

It's not new though, it has been happening for years. Selection bias might be skewing your view.

Attention and recognition.

Reminder that sites like israel.tv are still "illegal" to visit and all US ISPs are forced to block it, even though this directly contradicts Net Neutrality.

Imagine not developing a controversial emulator anonymously...

I've hated every cartoony zelda ever made. I will die playing LttP over and over again.

that is typically how boycotts work yes.

Nestle isn't poisoning their bottled water but some people still refuse to buy it.

exactly... it needs the vpn to even pass anything through... but the apps that don't work with vpns... don't work with vpns. as in, it detects the presence of an android vpn connection and refuses to work, it's not related to what internet connection it actually uses, just that a system-controlled vpn is active on the device.

Bus 001 Device 059: ID 05ba:000a DigitalPersona, Inc. Fingerprint Reader

It shows up exactly the same for all the revisions though.

Thankfully the Framework Laptop fingerprint reader works.

I use the DigitalPersona 4500 with libfprint. Unfortunately, there are multiple revisions of the device with the same model number and only some of them work properly under Linux (different encryption method I believe). As far as I know this is not actually documented anywhere. Googling just shows a bunch of unresolved bug reports of people having no idea why it doesn't work.

how on earth does that work? I thought it had to have an always-on VPN connection to do any filtering (or not)
