I’ve been using this to automatically skip ads on my Chromecasts (youtube ads and in video segments) for the past year.

It’s literally sponsor block but for all of my Chromecasts
That’s correct, NHTSA required it federally on May 1st 2018. I may have mixed up some local laws or regulations that happened in 2015 (when I bought my last car they mentioned that all their cars were required to have backup cameras)
You’re aware that by law most cars after like 2015 2018 have to have a backup camera in the US right?
If it is broken they are literally breaking the law by not fixing it.
Yes, you can have your mirrors and rearview but the camera removes your blindspots that those miss (you know things like a small child that is behind your vehicle). It’s a critical safety feature that is broken and needs to be fixed.
edit: NHTSA required it in 2018 not 2015, Canada probably has similar laws on the books too
It is arbitrary. While what classification a substance is may have some grounding in research, it’s mostly up to what interest group has either lobbied to get something under or whatever group law enforcement wants to be able to get easy charges for. Cannabis was Sched I because it made it easy for law enforcement to get big sentences for minorities and the counter culture participants of the day. Same thing with LSD and psilocybin.
All the DEA scheduling is just pick and choose your charge for whatever ideological ax they want to grind. Hence why things don’t line up with reality
Holding companies accountable for their maleficence? That’s one step too far, think of the poor shareholders!
You’re aware that you can send whatever traffic you want over any port right? Using 123/udp for NTP is just convention. A light bulb that is updating its time over Tor is suspect. TP-Link would have their own infrastructure or use public pools to update the device’s time.
It’s been hacked, the light bulb is likely part of some botnet or under an attacker’s control directly. Which is why it’s sending that much data continuously. IoT/smart devices don’t send a lot of data in this sort of volume as most of the time they’re idle and maybe send a heartbeat or status update every once in a while to prove they’re alive.
This is what is called an indicator of compromise or IoC, it’s some behavior or pattern that can be used to determine what is happening or who is the one doing the attacking.
Likely OP would need to do some analysis to be able to get attribution unless it’s a very well known botnet actor in which case attribution is fairly straightforward.
It’s definitely been popped. Rip.
Or… They do what they did last time the lifetime was cut down from 3-10 years down to 395 days… Just issue you a new certificate when the old one runs out and up to whatever the time period you bought it for…?
Let’s Encrypt isn’t the only CA to use ACME, you can auto renew with basically any CA that implemented it (spoiler: most of them have)
