Elsevier aka LexisNexis aka RELX, a "Frankensteinian amalgam of publishers and data brokers". They know much about everyone in the US and help cops, employers, landlords, insurers make decisions.

Must-read excerpt from @greenarchives1@twitter.com 'data cartels' book:

Did you know that if you capitalize each word in a multi-word hashtag, #ScreenReaders can read them as words, but if you leave them lowercase, they can't? Well, now you know! So, for #accessibility, please capitalize words when there's more than one in a hashtag.

More random #security thoughts:

1. Mastodon is pretty chill but expect a surge of troll activity with all the attention. Nothing is totally immune to the challenges associated with attention/scale.
2. Try to be open to new followers but check them out - Who do they follow? Who follows them?
3. Block quickly at any hint of malicious behavior/hate/trolling. Don't engage. Keep the vibe positive.
4. If you see patterns of abuse share that information with your followers.
