<p>Adobe is now processing all your PDFs in the cloud, by default. The setting to “Enable generative AI features in Acrobat” was on, and I didn’t know it until I opened a document and Adobe asked me if I wanted a document summary. It’s annoying to have to click “No,” so I opened settings to disable the prompt.</p><p>THE PROBLEM<br />I sign Non-Disclosure Agreements for many of my clients. Adobe is a potential leak of protected information. I don’t know what Adobe does with this information. I don’t know what they store, or for how long. I don’t know what country (or countries) the data is stored in. I don’t know what LLMs are trained with this data. And I don’t need to know. What I need to know is that they won’t use default opt-in as a legal excuse to wiretap my information.</p><p>I recommend that you check your Adobe settings on all devices, for all Adobe accounts.</p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/CallMeIfYouNeedMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CallMeIfYouNeedMe</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/FIFONetworks" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FIFONetworks</span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>cybersecurity</span></a></p>

<p>if you put ten people on a minecraft server and give them the ability to exchange money, one of them will invent derivatives, and one other will figure out a way to crash the market</p><p>it&#39;s the rules</p>

Some like KDE or GNOME have their own implementations (kwin, mutter), but smaller projects make use of wlroots, Mir or libweston libraries to do all the heavy-lifting.</p><p>Also, check this document if you are interested a little in X.org/Wayland history:<br /> <a href="https://people.freedesktop.org/~daniels/lca2013-wayland-x11.pdf" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">people.freedesktop.org/~daniel</span><span class="invisible">s/lca2013-wayland-x11.pdf</span></a></p>

Mine are aching, so I&#39;m debating whether I could get along with just one and cut the ache by half. You could have the other one if you want but, you know, achy, so maybe you can find a better source.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@tkk13909" class="u-url mention">@<span>tkk13909</span></a></span> but that&#39;s a problem, isn&#39;t it? Now instead of this functionality being implemented once at a lower level it needs to be implemented by every DE on their own.</p>

Sort of a, &quot;READY-SET-&lt;tiny&gt;go&lt;/tiny&gt;&quot;, repeat as necessary.</p>
