Its specs don't mean much today with a mere 640×480 resolution, but to me it stands out as a remarkably well-designed piece of hardware. The best detail was the rotating aperture
Pretty camera pretty

Mastodon and Pleroma support four settings for post visibility. These are public, friends only, unlisted and direct messages. What actually happens when you use those settings? The only thing they will change are the to and cc fields of the created activity and object.

A malicious server could leak all the data it receives. This includes posts to friends and direct messages.
