Because your data belongs to you. 😎

I just learned that there's already a talk about Overpass, so I'll do mine at a different conference instead.

If you're interested in Overpass, go visit the talk on day 2, 11:00 at Jugend-Village @jugendhackt!

On the last day at #DEFCON31 we have setup our first @VeilidNetwork headless/server node, a new chapter for us running privacy infrastructure for public use

#Veilid documentation is sparse currently so here is what we've used to setup/validate/troubleshoot a node on Ubuntu Server 22.04

this #Veilid node (veilid.emeraldonion.org) is running on dedicated hardware hosted in our Westin Datacenter in downtown Seattle with Seattle Internet Exchange peering

We’ve released Little Snitch Mini 1.4 today. It adds the ability to optionally show live data rates of sent and received data in the menu bar. And the chart in the status menu now also shows the total amount of data transferred in the displayed period.

It should maybe be illegal for a company to change the Privacy Policy on a product you already own/are using.

The policy changes are worded like "you agree to it if you keep using our product", but this is coersion.

If I bought a watch from you and you decide you want to sell my biometrics now, my choices are to throw away the money I spent or agree.

If I have all my digital life in your services and you change your policy like that, I have to somehow uproot all my data and possibly my business or how I connect with family or friends before the time expires, or you get to go mine all my data now because you said so?

This feels all very wrong.

If the folks working on high-temperature superconductivity got together with the folks who worked on cold fusion we could have lukewarm superconfusion.

The @music 𝕏 handle was just seized through eminent domain by X Corp. from Jeremy Vaught after he had accrued 11.4M followers over 16 years.

So much for 𝕏 being the "best place on Earth for great content creators". 🙄

It is literally happening in front of our eyes. #globalwarming #Glacier I took the photos of Mer de Glace in Chamonix in 2012 and 2023, to the day 11 years between.

You know what’s software engineering? Regaining control over a computer 20 billion kilometers away thanks to the design decisions made 50 years prior. #voyager2

This glorious sound interrupted so many lectures when I was at university #ubuntu
