DocScrutinizer05I admit it's not simp,le to find, anyway I succeeded back when I chosen Startpage - they get money from Google for the adds they forward and show while they protect their users from getting tracked by google and by the ads01:09
*** cyteen_ has quit IRC01:09
DocScrutinizer05so the money advertisers pay to google for placing ads stays a fraction at google while another fraction gets forwarded by google to startpage01:11
DocScrutinizer05hmm, they changed their website. And they now say they pay google for using google's search results. So maybe they do direct business with advertisers now?01:17
DocScrutinizer05brolin_empey: https://www.startpage.com/en/search/privacy-policy.html  >>Our search result pages may include a small number of clearly labeled "sponsored links", which generate revenue and cover our operational costs. Those links are retrieved from platforms such as Google Adwords.<<01:22

DocScrutinizer05one of my colleagues did a evaluation of mosz existing searchj engines regarding privacy, and Startpage ranked #4+- iirc02:31

KotCzarny;)18:19
buZz:)18:19
buZzi'm just amazed by your mad sk1llz18:19
KotCzarnyschizophrenic paranoia is treatable to some extent18:19
KotCzarnybut it's just a time bomb18:20
buZzyeah he'll be back18:20
KotCzarnysad part is he fussed about n900 years ago, yet he didnt switch to android apparently18:20

xestalk.maemo.org: bye bye bots and spiders :)19:38
KotCzarnyi should be afraid to ask.. but.. what? :>19:38
xesKotCzarny: due to the number of bot requests we are receiving i have just applied a bad bot filter. Feedback is welcome19:41
KotCzarnyhmm19:41
KotCzarnyso even more strict filter?19:41
xesno, only a large set of UA rules19:42
KotCzarnyuhum, figured as much19:42
KotCzarnyxes, how feasible would be creating some sort of readonly, static html archive of posts19:44
KotCzarnyhow big is the tmo data set?19:44
KotCzarnyi might have some spare disk space and bandwidth for that19:45
xesKotCzarny: hard question, easy solution? i suppose an N900 is enough to host the db :)20:08
buZzwas the worst bot 'megaindex.ru' by any chance?20:16
xesbuZz: no, it is blocked but we got no req. by it20:19
DocScrutinizer05wtf is wrong with fishbulb? Do I miss some 40% of that dialog (due to /ignore) so it looks like a completely insane monologue to me?20:26
DocScrutinizer05obviously not http://maemo.cloud-7.de/irclogs/freenode/_maemo/latest.log.html20:28

*** ChanServ sets mode: -o DocScrutinizer0520:31
DocScrutinizer05KotCzarny: xes: there really is no need for any mirror, you just need to distinguish read-only HTTP requests from HTTP requests that try to *write* any data (from "search" to "login" to "register") and only block the latter by applying RBL and whatnot20:36
DocScrutinizer05mirror / archive / whatever20:37
MaxdamantusPresumably the only thing you'd need to block to avoid spam is "register".20:38
DocScrutinizer05for Neo900 for example the current mechanism is already a knockout criterion since the users (incl me and our own communications officer!) that act most privacy/security aware can't even *read* the Neo900 posts anymore20:40
DocScrutinizer05it's not a sustainable approach to do daily snapshots on archive.org to allow users to *read* tmo20:43
*** mavhc has quit IRC20:44
DocScrutinizer05tools like fail2ban etc offer a plethora of better approaches to deal with bots etc than what maemo.org is doing right now20:45
KotCzarnyafair, they block spam at firewall level, not daemon level20:47
KotCzarnywhich complicates things20:47
DocScrutinizer05we urgently need to update the forum software. And I think this is what the eV was made for, to allow using the still existing funds to purchase a 200(?) bucks license20:47
DocScrutinizer05KotCzarny: yep20:48
DocScrutinizer05who's council? accoprding to http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council eeklund, juiceme, mosen since a year?? Whatever, council should get active to get the "vBulletin® Version 3.8.8" tmo sw updated20:51

DocScrutinizer05well, I think we got a number of real new user registrations that easily allows welcoming each one manually by administrator23:04
DocScrutinizer05so instead of a friggin captcha or whatever, simply tell users who want to register: "please come to IRC #maemo and fetch the parole of the day to get registered"23:06
