Delta Chat vs. Russland

Russland geht gegen den verschlüsselten Instant Messenger Delta Chat vor, indem es versucht, eine Freiburger Firma in die Pflicht zu nehmen. Die k...

Eine klare Warnung an die #chatkontrolle von Seite #deltachat. Es liege an der EU ob das letzte bischen online privatsphäre mit den gleichen Mitteln wie es Russland tut, beschnitten werden sollen.

Nice to see more and more of the strongest Banks in the world making steps toward #Bitcoin acceptance. #JPMorgan accepting Bitcoins to back credits could spike Bitcoin adaption a lot. View quoted note →

Custom Privacy Android OS Comparisons — THREE CATS

@GrapheneOS this is a very well balanced article about the differences of different versions of Android operating systems. It shows very well where GrapheneOS shines and also, what exactly other OS's maby lack. But it gives a lot of nuance and opportunity for any user to decide for him or herself, if a threatlevel applies to them. Probably less than one percent of our population is fearing the threat of someone stealing their phone and hacking it physically (as many people use no pin or a very weak one).

Maby just another showcase how bad #central ized systems are. #Decentralisation takes away this single point of failure. View quoted note →

#asknostr Does someone have a good hint for me? I am on the search for great opensource advertisment. So a Git repository or similar, with artwork, articles and projections to other parts of live to showcase the power of #opensource. Since I would really love to become an activist for opensource. For years I always ask people I get to know, to chat via Signal and when I get the opportunity also explain the superiority of opensource. And since here and then I meet well educated people, which are very suspecious towards opensource, since they do not understand how these developers get payed. And this is complicated. But it makes me feel, that we need more public attention for the connection of #opensource and #freedom.

Two articles that still seem as relevant today as before 10 years. @Edward Snowden revealed together with @US news | The Guardian how surveillance works. Encryption is used everywhere today. But still people rely mostly on closed source application like Whatsapp messenger, Google mail, X and many more popular apps to com unicate publicly and "seemingly private" Would be greate, when we learn as society, that there are networkeffects and that always the weakest link will be exploited. Means me using @Signal or @npub18q57...rs6f makes sure I leak less data. But my social network (contact list) and other private Metadata can be revealed by friends, who do not care and use all the Meta products, Google products and more of theclosed source addvertisement surveillance. Lets do the minimum and try to not be the weakest link. 😉🙌 Help friends and family to onboard privacy respecting services, which offer opensource clients and do not collect userdata.

Dezentralisation is always coming together with more work and basic knowledge in order to get it working. This is just the concept of #freedom at work. Freedom was never and will never be for free. But the value of freedom is high enough to do those necessary extra work I would say. Thanks for this great Article @Akamaister View article →

Ein super Artikel von Hartmut Gieselmann zu #opensource. Es ist wichtig zu verstehen, dass Opensource die uneingeschränkte Nutzung aller bedeutet. Wer die Lizenz beschränkt im Einsatzgebiet oder für gewisse Personengruppen illegalisiert, sollte den Namen Opensource direkt ganz wegstreichen:
