As Facebook Raised a Privacy Wall, It Carved an Opening for Tech Giants (New York Times, 18 dec. 2018)
« Internal documents show that the social network gave Microsoft, Amazon, Spotify and others far greater access to people’s data than it has disclosed. »

Hi there 😀! I just arrived here and wondering what's going on in the mastoworld.
I'm always happy to read and write about #foss, #freehardware, #programming, #privacy, #security ...
Are there some suggestions of whom to follow? Maybe ordered by topic?

public authorities "can secretly compel tech companies and individual technologists, including network administrators, sysadmins, and open source developers – to re-engineer software and hardware under their control, so that it can be used to spy on their users. Engineers can be penalized for refusing to comply with fines and prison"... sounds like a nightmare but it is reality in the #UK and #Australia https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/12/new-fight-online-privacy-and-security-australia-falls-what-happens-next #eff #spy #privacy #security

You do not control your data if it is not #secure.
Our latest #nextcloud 15 allows admins to enforce two-factor authentication, we added new security hardenings and we made 2FA easier. That is how we keep your data yours! #privacy #GDPR #Compliance

Thanks to @exodus (sorry folks for having put a bit load on your site during the past few days; I'm back to normal now), coverage on what apps on my app listings are tainted by what trackers now is close to 95%
Thanks for offering that great service 🙇
What app listings? These:
https://android.izzysoft.de/applistsWatch out for those monitor icons (really offensive trackers) – but also for those yellow stars (no trackers found) next to the apps 😃

#Briar is an unusual kind of messenger for Android devices: there are no servers, messages are stored on your phone and sent directly to your contact's phone through TOR, wi-fi or bluetooth.
It's designed for journalists, activists, people working in disaster zones and anyone interested in "off the grid" communication.
The official site is here:
The app is free, open source and available through @fdroidorg and Google Play.

After some thinking about the current state of social media and mass email lists, RSS came to mind, and it's actually a much better alternative for privacy.
No data collection, no feed manipulation, no email newsletters.
