Google Will Survive SESTA. Your Startup Might Not.

• Requires unreliastic levels of censorship by platforms; not even the big players will be able to comply 100%

• Proponents consider startups to be outliers, which “will be successfully prosecuted, civilly and criminally under this law”.

• Proponents are overstating the effectiveness of filtering

• Proposed standards actually discourage platforms from filtering

Companies Look to an Old Technology to Protect Against New Threats

CBS’s Showtime caught mining crypto-coins in viewers’ web browsers

• This isn’t about CBS. It’s about the potential for abuse by website owners

• Code unlikely to be official sanctioned / added by CBS; mure more likely it was a malicious third party or insider.

• The email address associated with the mining account is personal, not corporate

• Ethical issues for content providers to figure out

Apple’s New File System: Who Cares?

• Apple’s Hierarchical File System

• Apple File System

ZFS, jails, FreeBSD

• FreeBSD Jails

• Origins of FreeBSD Jail and why imperfect virtualization is good

• Jails are like little virtual machines (jails) running on a bigger machine (the jail host)

• From the jail host (often just referred to as the host), you can see into the jails, see everything that’s running, monitor, etc.

• Stuff in the jail cannot see outside the jail and have no interactions with the host

• You can configure the host so that the jail can access stuff on the host (e.g. a tape drive) but that requires explicit action by the sysadmin.

• Simplified concept of a FreeBSD Jail: create a directory, install FreeBSD in there, chroot, done.
