petermolnar fyi, though I don't think any of us use their plugins: https://www.jemjabella.co.uk/2019/security-alert-pipdig-insecure-ddosing-competitors/
#
petermolnar twitter is fascinating, to see how people believe excuses after that code was removed from their repositories...
#
petermolnar wow, there are follow-up finds: https://twitter.com/nickstadb/status/1112479746972151808
#
@nickstadb Another one from the @pipdig plugin. If you use one of their themes on @bluehost then they intentionally slow your website down by disabling the BlueHost cache plugin, then they can inject content with the title "Is your host slowing you down?"

GWG !tell [pfefferle] Started work on the migration of data in webmentions. This will be a big PR
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

GWG [Rose]: How did you expect Location to behave?
gRegorLove_ joined the channel
#
[Rose] I expected after connecting compass it would get my location every so often, and grab it on every post at least.
#
GWG The Block Registration RFC and the Gutenberg RFC process https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/04/01/the-block-registration-rfc-and-the-gutenberg-rfc-process/
#
GWG [Rose]: I would like to implement that more fully
#
GWG Now that other things have been addressed
#
[Rose] How can I help?
#
GWG I need to flesh out the behavior
#
GWG How do I protect privacy?
#
GWG How does weather behave, as it is looked up on every location lookup?
#
GWG Does it automatically add location to micropub queries if not provided?
#
GWG I don't currently support time based location lookups and would need to
#
GWG If I support time based and there is a request for location for a time where nothing is stored, does it default to last?
#
[Rose] That's a lot of stuff to sort out
#
GWG How do I keep the functionality consistent for those who only want to add location manually?
#
GWG [Rose]: Simple Location is my most mainstream plugin
#
GWG Trying to add functionality that allows people to decide how to use it
#
GWG I would like auto location if I can protect it
#
GWG That's why I added zones...geofenced private areas
#
GWG It automatically hides location with the zone label, like Home
#
[Rose] I love the zones so much
#
[Rose] There was some discussion in Nuremberg about locations, [jeremycherfas] and I think it was truncating the decimal gets you less precise results, which may be a good starting point.
#
[Rose] I think your plugin defaults to private right now, doesn't it? I would keep the current settings as default
#
GWG [Rose]: Actually default is a setting
#
GWG How much truncation?
#
[Rose] That's the question
#
GWG Well, lots of opportunities in Simple Location to improve it
[tantek], EmreSokullu, [schmarty] and [Rose] joined the channel
#
[Rose] So, protecting privacy: default to private unless a post specifically includes a location, or the person opts to do otherwise
#
[Rose] Weather: Perhaps 4 times a day?
#
[Rose] Adding location: yes, but keep it private unless settings are set to do otherwise
#
[Rose] No location found for time: either the closest one before (say within a 15 minute window), or no location
#
[Rose] These are purely suggestions for discussion

GWG I may convert these to issues on the repo
