'Facism thrives when you let it.' Portsmouth RNLI temporarily suspended services after volunteers received abuse following an anti-migration protest. @mrjamesob.bsky.social says it's one of the most 'disgusting' stories he's heard throughout his career.

Exactly this. Social engineering attacks, ie. picking up the phone and calling people to reset passwords, etc., remains a popular hacking tactic because it works incredibly well.

You see everything is connected. The marine heatwaves off the coasts of Europe make heatwaves on land more intense, which in turn dries out vegetation, which then creates perfect fire weather conditions. Brought to you by the world's refusal to drastically reduce the burning of fossil fuels.

I wonder if they were affected by the suspended red card debacle, which IMO was 100% red card and should have never been suspended (obviously). What's your thoughts?

Also, from an arch and fail over point of view, don't put all your eggs in one (AWS) basket like 3 UAE based banks did. Mobile banking services are down since it happened, no other back up outside the UAE, and no option to use the ATM or branches because they were closed for cost cutting measures.
