JavaScript Bookmarklet to enable Mastodon publishing for a WordPress.com post that is edited in the Classic Editor
Posted by jpluimers on 2023/07/02
I quickly hacked together this JavaScript Bookmarklet today, so it is without any checks and assumes you have enabled one Mastodon account for publishing, that you are hosting your blog on WordPress.com, and using the Classic Editor:
javascript:(function(){ publicizeFormEditHref = document.getElementById('publicize-form-edit'); publicizeFormEditHref.click(); mastodonCheckboxes = document.getElementsByClassName('wpas-submit-mastodon'); mastodonCheckboxes[0].checked = true; publicizeFormHideHref = document.getElementById('publicize-form-hide'); publicizeFormHideHref.click(); updateButtonHref = document.getElementById('publish'); updateButtonHref.click(); })();
The above code is the state of [Wayback/Archive] JavaScript Bookmarklet for the WordPress classic editor which enables mastodon publishing (assuming you have one mastodon publishing account enabled … ) and due to be improved in a later blog post.
This will enable the currently edited post to be published to Mastodon, then update/publish the post.
On enabling one Mastodon account for publishing:

Elon loves burning equity. TechCrunch: Twitter now requires an account to view tweets
Posted by jpluimers on 2023/07/01
In other news since yesterday [Wayback/Archive] Twitter now requires an account to view tweets | TechCrunch
Like many of Twitter’s recent changes, this could easily backfire. If tweets aren’t publicly accessible, search engine algorithms could rank the site’s content lower, meaning that fewer people would be directed to the site from Google.
This not only hampers SEO, but any anonymous access to tweets resulting in Twitter to have become a walled garden without any prior announcement.
As of yesterday, this for instance makes it way harder for researchers to access Twitter in a non-biased way (the Twitter Algorithm will always bias the timeline for an account). It also prohibits the Wayback Machine from archiving Tweets (which I rightnow cannot archive):
Twitter is now more restricted than LinkedIn or Facebook, so I think it is a next step of burning the Twitter Equity to the ground followed after many other steps scaring Twitter users away, for instance as of:

From [Archive] Max on Twitter: “@b0rk Shameless plug of an alternative to dig I’ve written: … It’s not complete yet (it can’t do what dig +trace does), but it’s getting there :) I’m also planning to add coloured output to make it more readable. …” / Twitter
In a reaction to [Archive] 🔎Julia Evans🔍 on Twitter: “I wish dig‘s output actually looked like this? I feel like there’s no reason (except compatibility or whatever) that it has to be as unreadable of it is …” / Twitter

All the Cyber Ladies: Een podcast voor, door en over vrouwen in cybersecurity. – PodcastFeed
Posted by jpluimers on 2023/06/20
Een ontzettend belangrijke podcast is [Wayback/Archive] All the Cyber Ladies – PodcastFeed
Een podcast voor, door en over vrouwen in cybersecurity.
Ik mis geregeld de periode van 30-35 jaar terug waarin IT-teams vaak “gewoon” uit 25% vrouwen bestonden. Gemêleerde teams zijn van onschatbare waarde voor goed functionerende IT, niet alleen vanuit oogpunt van #a11y en #inclusie: ook voor information security.
De tijd maakt inmiddels gelukkig een inhaalslag: er komen steeds meer vrouwen in de IT en je merkt gestaag dat teams diverser worden. All the Cyber Ladies draagt eraan bij dat proces binnen information security verder te versnellen.
De podcast is begin juni dit jaar van start gegaan en heeft nu al een trouwe schare volgers die hopelijk verder groeit naarmate Google deze hoger in de zoek-index opneemt.
Uiteraard is er ook een [Wayback/Archive] All the Cyber Ladies – PodcastFeed RSS zodat je die aan je eigen Podcast Player kunt toevoegen (en vaak staat die er al zoals bijvoorbeeld bij [Wayback/Archive] Player.FM: All The Cyber Ladies podcast)
Via [Wayback/Archive] Lucinda on Twitter: “@jpluimers Zeker!! Je kan de podcast in veel andere players vinden. https://t.co/ksUB8Hd7e4” / Twitter.

Removing identifiable metada from PDF files
Posted by jpluimers on 2023/06/19
I archived a long thread that started with [Archive] 𝚓𝚘𝚗𝚗𝚢﹏𝚜𝚊𝚞𝚗𝚍𝚎𝚛𝚜 on Twitter: “More fun publisher surveillance: Elsevier embeds a hash in the PDF metadata that is unique for each time a PDF is downloaded, this is a diff between metadata from two of the same paper. Combined with access timestamps, they can uniquely identify the source of any shared PDFs. ” / Twitter at [Wayback/Archive] Thread by @json_dirs on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App.
TL;DR: publishers put hashes in PDF metadata to track back redistribution; they hardly use smarter watermarking as those are difficult to automatically parse; the hashes can be easily removed.
