More Cookie Compliance Nonsense
I don’t track anyone. I have no interest in tracking anyone. I have no interest in monetising this blog but the Health Check on this site insists on this notification. I don’t think I need a compliance notice but I’d … Continue reading
EmDash – A Spiritual Successor to WordPress
I heard about this via Steve Gibson’s Security Now podcast on TWiT. It’s a new CMS/blogging platform based around WordPress (though not using any WordPress code) and they’re making a big noise about the way it’s more secure by design … Continue reading
