I can’t speak for the weekly refresh since I have a Apple dev account (which changes the refresh to 365 days) but altStore and altServer on Ventura works just fine on my iOS 17 phone

There’s a balance between convenience and security and IMO storing both on 1Password is fine. An attacker getting into your 1PW account would require them having

• your username

• and your password (which should be unique to only 1PW)

• and your secret key

• or physical device access with your 1PW password or biometric auth credentials

in which case an attacker really wants your stuff, has your device, and you have bigger issues.

I feel like this is similar to saying “is your front door lock strong enough?” when a thief is at your door and really wants to get inside, regardless of level of effort required.

NDAs are completely normal working with any established company on their pre-release product. I have signed NDAs when visiting an office because I might be in the presence of non-public data on someone’s nearby monitor. The NDA issue being a signal of negative intent really shows the level of sensitivity people have regarding this.

The intended purpose of defederation I thought was to keep the Nazis out, and prevent brigading from other communities — in general, a tool to use sparingly to isolate bad nodes to maintain the overall network health. Defederation because an instance has been accused of a pre-crime is a very troubling stance. It’s also surprising to see this posted here due to lemmy.world being defederated from already by other instances due to moderation concerns. That defederation is actually why I intentionally avoided a lemmy.world account — it’s just a headache for users

This would probably relegate the fediverse to a zombie-product-status niche if this sort of policy extremism takes on. But maybe some users would prefer that. Please read the rebuttal on this view at https://daringfireball.net/2023/06/more_on_preemptively_blocking

I would too but when it happens it’ll probably only apply to EU users
