infosex.exchange <3

You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Gluttony Section for Search Engines

@schrotthaufen I think in case of G it's more of a dark pattern unfortunately, if Duo behavior is UA dependent I'd assume it's a leftover workaround for an early compatibility problem.

Massive revelation (and shit UX) of the day:

Google actually still allows using hardware keys as #Passkeys on Linux, but I couldn't figure this out for *months*!

When you go to your account settings and try to add an MFA device the page shows that you can't create a Passkey on this device. When you click "Create Passkey" you are once again reminded that you can't create it on this device.

But now (on the error dialog) when you click "Use another device" the Passkey is created on your FIDO token - because it *is* another device!

I've been in the IT-security biz for ~20 years. I can't imagine how a normal person would figure this out.

@sassdawe I surely hope so! (not that I want him dead, but he deserves every bit of inconvenience)
