"Posso avere le mie crocchette?"
"Compila il modulo."
"Verifica la tua identità."
"Attendi approvazione."

😂🤯

La differenza tra possedere qualcosa e avere il permesso di usarla è più importante di quanto sembri.

Le tue chiavi.
I tuoi fondi.
La tua responsabilità.

@aeva I emphatically agree, I think that this policy should eventually extend to all forms of verifying something isn't generated by AI. If we don't find decentralised private ways to determine reality for ourselves then governments will be more than happy to give us permanent digital id

‼️New blog post by me‼️
"Against Pessimism"

> I know that it feels wrong to celebrate a small victory when so much else wrong is going on, but I promise you we won't be able to make it to the end if this is our outlook on life. If everything is terrible and nothing good ever happens or is talked about, then why should we even fight for the next victory?

...

> Nearly every single time I see one of their blog posts shared around on social media where they celebrated a victory they've made, there's always somebody in the comments complaining about how it didn't go far enough, that we still haven't done enough. And they're right in a sense — we do still need to keep going, keep fighting. This victory alone is only a step along the path! But why do you feel it is important to share that right now? Why must we pollute every victory with some sense of additional fear and worry?

Let's think for ourselves - we can do what's good for us, and it's good for privacy as well.

Privacy implications of ADM in employment and social services is barely scratching the surface - the legal and ethical issues are too many!

OpenLogi is an early-stage open-source alternative to Logitech Options+ focused on privacy and local control.

It lets you customize Logitech devices without accounts, telemetry, or cloud dependencies.

Currently macOS-only and still under active development, but a promising option for users who want more control over their peripherals.

A dark-themed project introduction card for "OpenLogi". At the top is a blue square icon depicting a computer mouse surrounded by directional arrows. Below the title, the text reads: "A native, local-first alternative to Logitech Options+, written in Rust. Remap buttons, DPI, and SmartShift over HID++. No account, no telemetry." Several badges at the bottom show GitHub stats, including 4.7k downloads and 178 commits per month.

I need it to check if some companies still exists. Had to use my mom’s phone for some and got a lecture about “paranoia”.

#ICE to Pay #ThomsonReuters $125 Million to Find ‘Voter Fraud’

The Department of #HomelandSecurity (#DHS ) plans to pay data broker giant Thomson #Reuters $125 million for access to its databases of personal data — which includes peoples’ names, addresses, #SocialSecurity numbers, ethnicity, #socialmedia posts, and #geolocation information — to help #Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) investigate what it describes as “voters fraud” and immigration fraud, according to procurement documents reviewed by 404 Media. The document says Thomson Reuters is able to let ICE continuously monitor millions of people and entities of interest.

Victory! #Flock Ends Rollout of Audio “Distress Detection” of Human #Voices

Reversing course, #FlockSafety —the #surveillance technology vendor most known for its extensive network of automated #licensePlate readers—has announced that it will end a pilot for its acoustic #gunshot detection devicesto identify signs of “human distress.”

In October 2025, @eff warned the public that Flock was rolling out a new feature called “#DistressDetection ” that would be deployed through their acoustic gunshot detection devices (formerly known as #FlockRaven , now called #AudioDetection ). This feature purported to use high-powered #microphones scattered throughout a city to search for sounds of human distress, with original advertisements from the product indicating it would search for “#screaming.” (Since the publication of our original blog post, Flock quietly amended the ad on this webpage to say “distress” instead of “screaming.”)
