When people say you should "own your own data", or that the future of the web is "ownership", what does that mean?
We need to talk about digital ownership.

“Con mi cara no”: la vigilancia masiva a través del reconocimiento facial en Paraguay

A 2023 survey by the Pew Research Center found that 65% of Americans “always or often feel exhausted when thinking about politics.” 63% have low or no confidence in the future of the U.S. political system. And 86% believe “Republicans & Democrats are more focused on fighting each other than on solving problems.”
But are the people within the U.S. government really that bad?

An Important Reminder
Hello, I thought it didn’t need to be said, but here’s something I’ve come to have to repeat recently:
just because you don’t like a trans person, for whatever reason, does NOT mean that the way you should be aggro towards them is by misgendering/deadnaming them, purposefully doubting their identity, or otherwise being transphobic towards them. that just undermines the rights and efforts of others, too, for no reason.
if you dislike someone, that’s fine, dislike them, but don’t show that in a way that would cause needless harm to others who did nothing wrong.
Don’t spread hatred and harm at or about a group of people, just because one person who happens to be a part of that group has caused you upset for completely otherwise (non-gender/transness/identity) related reasons.

There've been quite a few #fedisearch issues recently, but the common thread is that there's usually a gap in reporting - they're often live for weeks before people are made aware.
It's not just people's pet projects either, there are other #scrapers active, quietly consuming posts
So, I built a bot to detect and out them so that fedi admins can block as necessary
