The cool thing about running a #libre / #FOSS business is that we don't have to even think about stuff like this:

Espionage at scale - why businesses must beware
This year's security threat report names China to an unusual extent, leaving questions around whether the wording might provoke our 'complicated, but important' trading partner

Is there a good #FOSS #animation studio? I'm annoyed that my kids are required to use a big commercial app for a camp that's aimed at teaching them the basics. I'm entirely ignorant here, but I would've thought totally adequate alternatives exist for learning the ropes.

Does anyone know about an overview of #AI policies for #FOSS projects? Or are there maybe even some serious general rules for responsible use of genAI in software development?

Please delete your repository. When we stole your source code to train our LLM, it got dumber!

Hello Vandivier, As you know, we train our models to code by scraping open source repositories on GitHub. A recent root cause analysis showed that the code in this repository is so bad that it is single-handedly reducing average model performance by 91%. If you had never opened this repository, there is a 21% chance that we would have already cured cancer. …

How Proprietary Vendors Make Open Standards Look Broken - FOSS Force
Even when organizations adopt open standards, hidden dependencies can keep proprietary control intact and make open software take the blame.

"Witzig": Der chinesische #Autohersteller MG veröffentlicht nach Eingang einer #GPL-Klage eine SBOM. Darin enthalten: Der #FOSS-Trojaner

#saic #foss #mg4 | Chan-jo Jun | 26 comments
WTF - ein Autohersteller listet selbst einen Botnet-Trojaner im Lizenzbestand? SBOM-Fail Wer Produkte mit Software in den Verkehr bringt, muss ermitteln und wissen, was verbaut hat. Wer bei der Softwareentwicklung den Überblick verloren hat, versucht mit Tools zu scannen, was zum Beispiel in einem Auto zum Einsatz kommt. Wenn man dann die Ergebnisse ohne Überprüfung veröffentlicht, kann es zu peinlichen Pannen kommen. Der Hersteller vom MG4 hat auf seiner Lizenzliste die Komponente Teardr…

Hello #AskFedi, I have an old HTC phone that I want to give to my mum and I would like to install a Google-free Android on it. However, it doesn't seem to be a device that is supported by i.e. /e/OS or Sailfish. Does that mean I best forget it or are there other ways to fit this particular phone with a Google-free OS?

Keep hearing about NAM in the guitar modelling world. This seems like an interesting development. Who doesn't love #FOSS #GuitarModeling taking the top spot?
