  • Said this in another thread

    So how long until celluar providers also say you have to have a trusted device to activate your SIM? Apple, Google, Samsung, automotive and Windows would be fine and they’d probably allow their branded or limited hotspots.

    This would basically eliminate any Linux option (pc or phone), and DIY devices. I could see other OOB vendors getting on board to be certified to have a certificate issued to them.




  • This is the correct answer. If they want you to do any work in a mobile, remote, out of hours capacity, they need to provide the device.

    I used to help manage MDM at my old company and I can tell you there is a shit load they can do once you install their utilities. For example:

    • remotely wipe your phone
    • block your ability to copy/paste between applications
    • view all web traffic to/from it (even encrypted traffic since we installed a proxy that put its own trusted root certificate in)

    Not quite. If your comments federated out to an instance that either a) doesn’t get the delete request or b) ignores the delete request, your comments will very much stay out there in the fedeverse with not much you can do. Yes posts on the original instance may be gone, but anything that get pushed out via ActivityPub is a crap shoot.
