I’m not exactly sure what you’re trying to do here. Yes, if you use a phone as a hotspot, everything going through will be associated with that hotspot phone’s IMEI.

You probably want one hosted in a non-cooperative country, and one that doesn’t keep logs.

catloaf@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Can AI run a physical shop? Anthropic’s Claude tried and the results were gloriously, hilariously badEnglish51·18 days agoFor a first pass, yes. I wouldn’t really trust it for an unbiased, objective perspective. Each model is only as good as its training data.

And any EM that passes through a mask is probably going to pass through flesh too. And any EM that’s transmitted and not reflected means it can’t be imaged by a sensor.
Very thin fabric, like a thin white T-shirt, can be transparent to IR in bright sunlight. But that’s a fairly rare case.
catloaf@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify CopsEnglish12·21 days agoI heard a bit on NPR over the weekend talking about copaganda. Turns out body cams are beneficial to cops, because they can take that footage and selectively edit and release it to push a certain narrative.
If you’ve ever seen a clip on social media, it often starts a few seconds before the cop hits someone, rarely showing the full sequence of events that led up to that point.
And if they can’t edit the footage to make them look good? “Oops, we didn’t retrieve that footage in time so it was overwritten.”

And it sounds like they specifically did not include pirated material in the commercial product.
catloaf@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Judge Rules Training AI on Authors' Books Is Legal But Pirating Them Is NotEnglish10·21 days agoThe order seems to say that the trained LLM and the commercial Claude product are not linked, which supports the decision. But I’m not sure how he came to that conclusion. I’m going to have to read the full order when I have time.
This might be appealed, but I doubt it’ll be taken up by SCOTUS until there are conflicting federal court rulings.
Exemplified by this being a rant in a video with sponsorships tacked on the description and comments. Probably in the video too, but obviously I’m not going to watch it.
catloaf@lemm.eeto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Could Windows and installed apps upload all my personal files?English12·22 days agoYes, in theory any program, including Windows itself, could upload data to the Internet if not blocked.
Windows can be restricted by a network firewall. Programs can be restricted by filesystem permissions and the OS firewall, and not running them as admin.
But is this happening? Unlikely, unless you have malware. You can inspect your traffic.
