So it looks like Hetzner is doing the same thing OVHCloud did with EncroChat and SkyECC. But hey, we have GDPR, keep your data hosted in the EU it is very "safe" there (ironic).

EDIT: Based on German law this certainly is not a lawful interception but one made by an intelligence agency.

His robots.txt explicitly allows bots including LLM bots to scrape his site

> I closed port 443

> Now closing https service is obviously just a temporary fix

Probably the best starting point would be to edit the robots.txt file and disallow LLM bots there. Currently the file allows all bots: http://acme.com/robots.txt

And at the bottom:

What can I do?

The only way to temporarely get rid of my tinnitus (completely gone or at least very reduced for up to 30 seconds) is to listen to this beep tone from 8 to 12 KHZ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNf9nzvnd1k

apparently the phenomenon is called residual inhibition. If only there was a way to make this work permanently...

Depends what you are looking for. Is it real time quotes?

IEX data is now free after 15minutes instead of 15milliseconds.

One option is the Databento US Equities Mini for 200 USD per month. If I understand it correctly it is some sort of weighted average between multiple exchanges.

Hopefully they will provide cheap market data like IEX did in its beginning.

It is a very subjective take indeed

In my case they did it at the store where I came to pick it up. That's how I got aware of it.

The espionage agency in question was the french DGSI.

I guess it is better to weigh it just after the purchase from a random store and from there the weight should never change.

Intelligence agencies put their bugs within the hardware of electronic devices you order online.

If you believe being the target of an intelligence agency never order anything online. They will put the bug inside, especially if it is an electronic device such as a phone/laptop/TV/coffee machine.

Best solution is to go buy it from a random store and have a good home security system.

Also weigh your electronic devices laptop/phone to check if the weight differs from its original weight, it should not deviate.

You can do both at the same time ;)

I can really recommend HelloTalk which is a language learning app. Meetup.com also used to be a good option but not so much anymore.

You are probably right, because once I got accepted in the network, they were able to get to talk to the Google MCM/Adsense support and within one week I got MCM approved and my Adsense account was reinstated. Hadn't they be there I would still be stuck.

"Then Google had layoffs. The layoffs were an unforced error driven by a short-sighted drive to ensure the stock price would keep growing quarter-to-quarter"

Seems like they fired the Google Adsense support team. I have been using Google Adsense for many years, and since last year there is no way of contacting any support, there IS NO WAY, I have lost over 10k in revenue because of it, and was only able to get my problem fixed after 2 months by joining a third party publisher network.

Keep in mind that Adsense is one of Google's main sources income, and that they take a 32% cut as an intermediary (So they have ample money to pay for a 5 star support)!

Very correct, although Apple controls only a minority of the Smartphone and Desktop market, they have most of the high income individuals, which advertisers love.

If Apple loses that sweet 21B USD, they will come up with their own search engine for sure.

I've seen the same here in Germany but they do appear only if you use the results within the last 24h functionality. It looks like the German content is generated through GPT2 or 3. It makes no real sense if you read it. If you go on the page you are immediately redirected to a scam just like the article mentions. Interestingly they use ".it" domains here. It also looks like the domains might have been hacked or are expired domains that have been bought.

For example if you check havfruen4220.dk on archive.org you can see that it appears to have been a legitimate business website before. https://web.archive.org/web/20181126203158/https://havfruen4...

How do they rank so well?

I've checked the domain on ahref and it has almost no backlinks. But if you look closely you will see that all the results that rank very well have been added very recently. On the screenshots in the article you can see things like "for 2 timer siden" which means 2 hours ago. It looks like google is ranking pages that have a very recent publishing date higher.
