  • That only applies if you aren’t recording audio as well.

    Reasonable expectation of privacy applies to video recording, audio recording, and still photography. You can be in a public space having a private conversation if you can reasonably expect no one would be able to hear it, but you can’t have a conversation in front of a plainly visible surveillance camera and then claim you were being eavesdropped on. You don’t even truly need to “consent” to being recorded, you just have to have knowledge that it is happening.

    That’s also not what you said, your original comment was “it’s not legal to have a video camera pointed at the street”.

    In my state for instance it is also illegal to be able to see license plates from personally owned security cameras

    I’d love to see a law on the books anywhere that says this. License plates do not have more rights than people. By “compliance expert” did you actually mean that you’re a cop? Usually cops are the ones going around spreading legal misinformation like this.

    Why do so many people on Lemmy just really need a “gotcha”?

    You were so confident that you were correct that you brazenly posted something that contradicted your misinformation without reading it.





  • If Netscape had a large paid install base and still failed because a free browser became ubiquitous, what makes you think doing that now when the free browsers are already ubiquitous would work? Especially when it also has to compete with what is essentially already what you’re describing, Librewolf (or just Firefox + Arkenfox).



  • That reddit thread is horrible advice, it’s just mapping the LXC root user to the host root user, which is just a privileged LXC with extra steps (and maybe less secure).

    The reason you’re probably having issues is that your root user in the LXC is mapped to the host user 100000 by default, and that user doesn’t have access to the share, but you can change that with mount options or creating a user with 100000:100000 and adding it to a group with access.
