@pheonix@hachyderm.io I think the #Enshittification of the #Web needs to be pushed back hard. As in: If it can't use that #Website with @torproject@mastodon.social / #TorBrowser over an #Iridium connection @2400bit/s it should be illegal to put it online! Kind of harsh, IK. I'm so sick of the Enshittification that it makes me more and more "militant" in terms of #Privacy, #DataProtection, #ConsumerRights & #UserRights. This mistreatment reminds me of the Gaming Industry excl. #Valve

For Data Protection Day 2026, we're taking you from Ancient Rome to now. Our rights expanded in the Information Age to include the electronic body. Data is our DNA. But now protections are shrinking. All while surveillance becomes industrialised, AI outstrips regulation and our institutions fall under corporate capture. We must learn from history and course correct now.
