SUSE to go from a public company to a private one:

R.I.P.?

Remains to be seen. Public companies lately are pushed to squeeze out infinity growing profits, long-term effects be damned. Going private could give them breathing room to focus on actually creating value. All depends on the capital firm and their goals. Some have a standard MO of buying companies and selling piecemeal.

indeed

whenever some company i like announces they're going public or IPOing i always clench my butthole and wonder how they're going to ruin it lol

I remember when suse was getting sold every other year because companies kept ending up with it and didn't remember how, they just came with some huge IP purchase

Twitter is a VERY strong exception to "taking it private makes things better"

The exception proves the rule.

TheTechRobo fireonlive : on the topic of warcs with private cookies or personal data in the replies from the other day on #archiveteam, do we have guidelines on how to deal with them? I'm guessing altering the warc files to remove or replace them is a no-no
-
fireonlive
JAA is the warc-master; but from what I understand altering the WARCs is an absolute no
-
fireonlive
it also messes with things like hashes etc in the warcs themselves
-
JAA
Correct
-
fireonlive
for stuff where personal info might be in it, e.g. facebook, i'd try to get a throwaway facebook account, then reset your session afterwards (go through their invalidate any existing sessions/cookies)
-
colona
ok thanks, yeah in my case it was a few warcs of articles behind paywalls and not wanting to get my accounts banned (probably fine just to hold onto the warcs for a year or two for those), but was also curious how it's done in general
-
fireonlive
:)
-
JAA
Generally, we archive publicly available content. Things using accounts are virtually always excluded from the WBM, although they can be uploaded to IA so a motivated person could load the WARCs with something like pywb.
-
JAA
If it's sensitive like your example (not a throwaway etc.), yeah, keep it private or only share it with trusted people. It's also possible to upload it to IA and lock down access there, which would preserve the data without your actively keeping it safe while preventing access by random people.
-
colona
oh so are you saying to always keep them off the general web collections, or would it be fine to add them to WBM if the website dies?
-
JAA
Their general policy is to not accept such WARCs into the WBM. There may be exceptions (I know of at least one in a past AT project).
-
imer
is there a way for "normal" people to view non wbm warcs on archive.org?
-
imer
doesnt look like it from checking an item
-
JAA
You have to download the WARC and then throw it into an appropriate software. The webrecorder people have something online where you can load a WARC, I believe? That would at least avoid having to install something etc. (And the webrecorder stuff is 'fine' if it's just about casual read access.)
-
TheTechRobo
yeah, replayweb.page

TheTechRobo
JAA: what would you do if I started writing warcs with warcio? :P
-

TheTechRobo: you'd be yeeted into the sun

speaking of.. i was trying mikolaj|m's forum-dl with my tom's hardware dump and then JAA's tools on it to extract outlinks but I guess it uses the webrecorder family or something because it was very unhappy :(
