First #RaspberryPi earned a shitstorm by hiring an ex-cop specialized in hidden surveillance.

Now they accept an investment by Sony for their propr. AI engine to be included in the next Pi. Which "only sends metadata to the cloud".

Here's a fine list of alternatives to that now-garbage company:

Also I think it should be respecting and accepting one's #privacy and be an #OptIn solution that is completely #OnPremise / within one's own IT.

After all, this is why I like and use #Nextcloud and @collabora's @CollaboraOffice #CollaboraOffice and all the other parts of my #TechStack:

I want every single component to be accountable to me down to every bit, and only #FLOSS allows me to have independent audits if need be.


@mullvadnet & @torproject teamed up for an INCREDIBLE and MUCH needed service for the #privacy & #security community! 😛rami:

Big news day! Together with EU Gov't organizations, we built Nextcloud Tables to have a full SharePoint replacement for organizations that care for compliance, privacy and on-premises collaboration.

Oh look, Google being Google.

(In case you were thinking of learning/using Go, I’d say skip it. There are plenty of other fish in the sea. Unless you like telemetry by default in your programming languages and tools, that is. In fact, just don’t touch anything tainted by Google if you can help it.)

Excellent story on Wired about Telegram's problems with supposedly being "private" and secure, and how Russia is exploiting it https://www.wired.com/story/the-kremlin-has-entered-the-chat/

IMO Telegram should be treated like Facebook: if you're registered there, don't leave any details, configure all chats to self-delete (especially non-private ones), and FFS do not use it for group chats, whether they're open or closed, as they're not encrypted at all.

@hen will be going live in about 5 hours - 6PM Pacific Time to talk about #privacy , #security and other questions people have for data privacy day 😎


Excited to announce that @techlore Privacy Coaching is BACK 🙌 🎉

For those who need a formal, guided approach for their #privacy & #security journey, I'll be working with them individually to help reach their goals - big or small. I've worked with business execs, public figures, & privacy enthusiasts via the program, and it's a blast to see the progress people make in such a short time!

If interested, the form to apply is here: https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/form/view/I+FS9RwrXHIDgiD73lLaKQeM6zJTBrGrb6Hi-bN4pWo/


Features I didn't know were in #NextcloudTalk?

How about the ability to avoid sending all my messages, and my contacts messages to #Google via #Firebase / #FCM?

*checks*
Nope.

I'll be using #Matrix with #Element/#Fluffychat until you decide that #UnifiedPush is a thing and #privacy is actually important. Users already made #NextPush to make it easier. Is the current situation even #GDPR compliant?

This is more important than making the interface slightly prettier in Hub 3.

Go Incognito is a #privacy #security course I spent two years developing, totaling over 4 hours of video content. It has now had thousands of people go through it, most absolutely loving it! Best of all, there is both a free and paid variant to make it accessible 💯

But, like most tech, things need to be updated:

Go Incognito v2 is officially a project I will be developing, and all premium v1 peeps will be grandfathered into v2 and any future iterations.

#introduction finally! Hi everybody and thanks for setting up scholar.social. I am Max currently #PhDThesisWriting on a collective turnaround of digital #HumanRights #data_protection and group #privacy beyond (neo)liberal obsessions with autonomous, lonely individuals. Combining theory and practice I co-founded https://OpenRewi.org as a @Wikimedia #OpenScience fellow. Looking forward to meet new people and engage in lively discussions 🤓🙋‍♂️

What does Nextcloud believe in?

"decentralized products as alternatives to centralized platforms."

"Open source is the only way for users to trust their devices"

...in videos posted only to a centralized, proprietary platform.

Take 10 minutes to set up Peertube channel with automatic mirroring of your videos, doing all the things you say you believe in.

I love Nextcloud, but the way you communicate is undermining your message.
