When you send an E-mail at work you assume the employer is watching
So why assume personal E-mails aren't watched?
Getting scope of #privacy (e.g. secure from friends/colleagues/family but not government/Google/Microsoft) is key to averting unnecessary scandals -

#Introduction
Hi all, new here! I'm an #openbsd user and my interests are in #writing, #reading, #operating_systems, #privacy, #security, #decentralization and #federalization. I'm on #SDF's Mastodon instance too as @fuuko . I have other interests, but those are mainly what I'll be talking about in this one! It's nice to meet you all and I thank the admin for making an instance for *BSD users! -

It is unreasonable to expect MSM to explain to people the value of their #privacy (knowledge is power) because sponsors of MSM like to control people and sell ads etc. To them, sites that profit from promotion of privacy (e.g. VPN) are the foe. In conversation from gnusocial.de permalink -

When managers speak in terms like "cloud" they're encouraging us not to speak of things like D-R, #privacy etc.
Some terms like BYoD got phased out. Because we pretty much 'own' nothing. Everything is being rented, monitored, people are 'on-call' overnight, pay goes down.In conversation from gnusocial.de permalink -

“In a new project, the RSA and DeepMind are creating space for citizens to consider trade-offs in the use of AI” (https://www.thersa.org/discover/publications-and-articles/rsa-blogs/2017/10/the-role-of-citizens-in-developing-ethical-ai)
Here’s the letter I sent the RSA, both as a fellow and as someone who has presented an RSA talk on the subject, on how their partnership with Google/DeepMind/Alphabet, Inc. and this framing legitimises the false dichotomy at the heart of #SurveillanceCapitalism that there is a necessary tradeoff between modern technology and #privacy. https://mastodon.ar.al/media/DLpOYZB7IQpDYnzTq1U

This is a couple days old, but:

Fitness trackers were exposing GPS data of users at military bases and other classified sites.
The fact that the US military and CIA didn't consider such an obvious threat is beyond me. This is the very first thing I think of every time I see them on someone's wrist (which is nearly every day).
Some people want to be tracked. That's their choice. But people need to be informed on these topics. I can't imagine that someone on a military or CIA base, knowing full well that their location is being reported to third parties, would continue to wear such a device.

Tails 3.5 is out. One of the main fixes is:
Update Linux to 4.14.13 and the microcode firmware for AMD to mitigate Spectre.
