audio cds are not a block format, they are a stream. dd works on block devices, where it can request blocks sequentially from the drive. audio cds can only be positioned by track, and even have to be oversampled to correct for jitter: https://www.cdroller.com/htm/readaudio.html

yeah good advice

minor panic, oh, “2028”.

alias downloads=“cd ~/Downloads”

I was thinking this. With advances in text recognition, they can potentially filter all that data now. Since five eyes is essentially for industrial espionage, google first requiring access to source code to ensure compatibility, and that you can’t really turn off chrome web page sniffing (I have found the disabled chrome app still running, with “force stop” available,) all this makes more sense than the little bit they’d squeeze out of ad revenue chasing people who avoid chrome and google assistant. After all, it isn’t bad actors or people who already buy from google they are spending so much effort on - it is the tech competent.
