The CNIL has a very constrained budget (since the need for them keep increasing, and their income doesn't), so spending money for an english translation is probably not very high on their list. I would not be surprised if it's one of their regular employee that just happened to speak english that do those.

For very low values of "speak english", of course - this is France after all. That translation is so peculiar, it reminds me of the Chinglish manuals we get with cheap manufactured products.
infosec twitter is crap like any other twitter subculture, full of drama queens and clickbait to increase their fav/rt count. What's even sadder is that they make no money off it.
Indeed, something similar happened just last week. theHacker News(not to be confused with HN) twitter lashed out at VLC for not updating over https, which essentially uses same(ish?) code signing as described by APT. A bit of a shit show.
HN also had a big thread participating in the fray...
I'm seriously tempted to start flagging links that point to "bad"/"outrage" bugtracker decisions like this, wide public distribution seems to make things quite a bit worse.
They use 1024bit DSA with SHA1, it is not cryptographically secure! Thus they would really benefit from HTTPS, it would provide another layer of protection against tampering.
Oh and we haven't even addressed that their "secure signing" doesn't also protect first installs that could be insecurely downloaded.
Most Debian mirrors support https. But HTTPS alone does not help you vs fresh connection if it is a rotating certificate like Lets Encrypt that has a dubious authentication chain.
Egypt or Turkey can issue valid fake certificates so you would have to check it if it's not one of those.
I've seen that. In my small town, taking the bus is free for senior citizens. So they sit there all day and socialise because they simply have nothing better to do.
Affected [1] is correct. You could perhaps say 'Applying compression effected an undesirable change in some instruments...' - the sound of the instruments is affected by the compression, but the change in the sound has been effected by the addition of compression.
Personally, its price. I would never buy an Android and I don't want to pay full price to own an iPhone. It sucks that you've got to be wealthy to have privacy and security. The small screen blows, though. (That's not to say I like big screens, but 4.7" would be so much better...)
I think they are very much related, just not linearly. As a site grows from tiny to small its quality often rises, since the worst content gets filtered out as more good content comes up to replace it. But from then on growth mostly decreases quality as any sense of community vanishes and only content targeted at the lowest common denominator rises to the top.
