This also highlights the problem with a lot of communities moving to Discord, which inevitably ends up as repositories for critical information, but can't be indexed by Google. Reddit is still valuable as a problem solving resource, and I hope they fix this API fiasco.

Not sure if this has been posted here before, but a friend sent it to me and I thought it was funny.
Mine isn't very interesting, but sure
Is it possible to get around this with user agent spoofing? Or maybe degoogled Chromium?
That's a really interesting bypass; I wonder how this can be patched or mitigated considering the module is entirely loaded from memory. Short of setting noexec on temporary directories, I can't think of any quick short term fixes.
Edit: Re-read the blog post and looked at the Github repo for the code- looks like this is more of a proof of concept of a SELinux confine bypass, as the kernel needs to be compiled with CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP set. See the readme here, there's some more notes that weren't included in the blog post.
A self hosted (preferably FOSS) home security video solution would probably have prevented something like this. Main problem is those solutions aren't as simple as Ring's plug and play cameras.
Not really, unless you're a fan of the UI/UX changes.
