@EVoCeO Indeed. The font variations seemed a little off, but who cares.
@EVoCeO At first I thought that this video is too long for something so obvious, but no. This is gold.

"Any man who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community on the injustice of the law is at that moment expressing the very highest respect for the law."

If you have a #Wordpress website and use the File Manager plugin, update it ASAP.
A vulnerability has been giving access to hackers to execute commands in File Manager's /plugins/wp-file-manager/lib/files/ installation directory.

@torproject I appreciate a lot the work you do!
Still, don't you think that for-profit companies-members could be a negative influence? I am concerned about Avast in particular. They have proven that they have no regard for user privacy. Avast antivirus and AVG are collecting a lot of personal user data, including web history, yet they claim that they believe in privacy. "Look forward to working with Tor" seems suspicious, to say the least.

@freemo And the part regarding User generated content and moderation. Vague to allow such bans. Ridiculous IMO.
Holy crap, google is apparently taking down all/most fediverse apps from google play on the grounds that that some servers in the fediverse engage in hate speech. At least three apps I know of anyway and I'd imagine the others will follow soon under the exact same reasoning.} Seems to be the case with Husky, Fedilab, and "subway" tooter.
this is a scary precedent if google play is going to ban any apps that can in any way be used to access content with hate speech. So what about a forum client, do they take that down just because there is a forum somewhere on the internet posting hate speech?
This is particularly worrisome because for most people Google Play is the only way they understand to install apps at all.
