We're thrilled to announce our new project:
docs.coop/
Building on the great work of Suite Numerique (docs.numerique.gouv.fr/home/), we are offering an opportunity to be part of a new collaborative Docs platform as a service, that provides an ethical alternative to Google Docs, Office 365, Notion etc.
Docs is the result of a joint effort lead by the French 🥖 (DINUM) and German 🥨 (ZenDiS) governments which represents a paradigm shift in the way open source software is funded.

Podcast Episode: Why Three is Tor's Magic Number
Many in Silicon Valley, and in U.S. business at large, seem to believe innovation springs only from competition, a race to build the next big thing first, cheaper, better, best.Electronic Frontier Foundation

No More Safe Heaven for Privacy? Switzerland Drifts Toward a Surveillance State Due to New Controversial Laws
Proposed privacy law changes, if passed in parliament, threaten Switzerland's reputation as a privacy haven.Gourav Patnaik (It's FOSS News)
Ooh! This might be interesting to you guys.
Yes; exactly! So many people who should know better are not just ill-informed, but aggressively incurious about what is available.
I was recently told that there is *no way* to collaborate on a document that is not #privacy invasive, with the added smug fillip "sometimes, you just have to live in the world."
The occasion for this insight was a call for signatures to an open letter to the Trump Administration calling for better privacy protections---using Google docs. 😀
🚨 Tor Browser opsec discovery: The security level slider cannot be relied upon without a full browser restart: privacyguides.org/articles/202…
If you frequently switch between security levels in Tor Browser (or Mullvad Browser!), make sure you are fully restarting the browser every time, otherwise you could still unexpectedly have dangerous JS features enabled!
This requirement is not publicly documented anywhere. Hopefully @torproject will add a prompt to restart after modifying this setting in a future Tor Browser release.

Latest comic. A British consumer rights group examined unnecessary data harvesting by “smart” devices, including air fryers connected to phone apps. While these devices may not pose the greatest privacy risk in our everyday lives, they are part of a growing Internet of Things capable of collecting data when and where we least expect it.
