Bug reports on any software

When a bug tracker is inside the exclusive walled-gardens of MS Github or Gitlab.com, and you cannot or will not enter, where do you file your bug report? Here, of course. This is a refuge where you can report bugs that are otherwise unreportable due to technical or ethical constraints.

⚠of course there are no guarantees it will be seen by anyone relevant. Hopefully some kind souls will volunteer to proxy the reports.

The 112.be website drops all Tor traffic, which in itself is a shit show. No one should be excluded from access to emergency app info.

So this drives pro-privacy folks to visit http://web.archive.org/web/112.be/ but that just gets trapped in an endless loop of redirection.

Workaround: appending “en” breaks the loop. But that only works in this particular case. There are many redirection loops on archive.org and 112.be is just one example.

Why posted here: archive.org has their own bug tracker, but if you create an account on archive.org they will arbitrarily delete the account without notice or reason. I am not going to create a new account every time there is a new archive.org bug to report.
