At newspeak house. We have had "security theater" for the last 10 years of #geekproblem just overheard a hackathon for "poverty theater" is happening soon. The problem of poverty is a political/economic issue. Apps and tech are not a solution, and it would be disgusting to think privileged people are building there careers on this.

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

Am finding the noise is up on mastodon and the signal is losing out. Were are the tools to tune focus? I like DIY so not complaining, wondering if this is part of the social/ui/tech shift in this #openweb space. Constructively what's your idea on this?

"Simplicity is a better gift than power" in the modern world, this is a message from contemporary socialism.

Don't get me wrong, LetsEncrypt is doing great work and has definitely lowered the barrier to entry for SSL. But it grinds my gears when technical folks don't take that *little* bit of extra effort to lower the barrier to entry as much as possible. It shows a lack of empathy and a myopia towards whatever technical problems they're trying to solve.
And it also means I'm going to ignore whatever they're saying until someone writes the simple "explainer" blog post.

The best antidote to Facebook et al is just to continue building viable communities outside of those systems, using open protocols. In conversation from soc.freedombone.net permalink Repeated by hamishcampbell -

@balrogboogie both very good feeds. You forget that podcasting is very successful part of the #openweb that still exists.

@Shamar @aral @wolftune @cwebber Right. It's not that the sponsor directly orders this or that to happen. It's that once your event depends critically upon the sponsor then anything critical of them becomes something to be removed, or at least not talked about.
The massive centralization around Google and Facebook and their influence not just on software developers and web standards but the whole of society is something worth discussing and criticizing.In conversation from soc.freedombone.net permalink Repeated by hamishcampbell -

They say populism is on the rise, but the people they call "populists" have almost nothing in common with each other. They talk about Corbyn and Trump as if they're a part of the same movement. That's of course ridiculous. In fact the non-populists are much more of a unified movement than the populists. What we're witnessing isn't "the rise of populism", it's the decay of neoliberalism.
