This is the first thing I have heard from her about what she’s working on since she had her “wings clipped”. Hope she is still doing good…

whats the specific model number?

It’s not the Muslims, it’s the evil Christians. Same problem, but different names.

The Germans have Russians. :-/

I wish I knew, but the ad industry LOVES this tech: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=smart+tv+ACR&t=ffab&ia=web Every other result is “How ACR is going to be awesome for advertisers/marketers”. the ones in between are “How to shut off ACR” :-/

No.

Smart TV’s run automatic content detection on all their inputs. You will also be nagged to put the device online relentlessly, and some models will not let you skip internet connectivity.

I see this said every time this comes up.

Are there any efforts starting or even attempting this? Or even taking an existing printer and replacing it’s main board?

Linux. (ducks)

You can lose your Google account in the blink of an eye with no recourse, no access to support or anything.

With local and my own backups, I can choose to put them at any location, cloud or local.

If it’s a secure enough environment, I imagine that there will be monitoring on the device, and the moment a hub shows up that’s not supposed to be there, or any other USB device tree that doesn’t match the approved list, , alarm bells ought to go off. If it’s valuable enough; the attack would be to use a passive device picking up leaky signals on the wire, or even hidden camera watching screen/keyboard.

There is no implementation right now that enables you to own and manage your own passkey backups without Google it icloud.

Additionally, the attestation feature is one step away from banks and other sites mandating specific implementations, preventing people from using software tokens or OSS managers.

Passkeys is great, and I am eager to recommend it to everyone, but without those items addressed, it’s a trap door, and one bitflip away from very strong lock in.

You can extract the SLIC value from the ACPI table, and then pass it through to QEMU

It is my understanding that this can only be used to run the OEM license one one instance in a VM, on the specific hardware that is originally licensed. IE, you virtualize the license if the bootOS is Linux, but you can’t run 2 instances of the same windows license inside each other.
