"For journalism, activism, or domestic abuse situations, skip Windows and use Linux routed through Tor instead of a commercial VPN. A GDID doesn’t care which VPN you use, only that it’s still the same Windows installation. Microsoft only told the public about GDID once a court forced the issue." #BigTech #MassSurveillance #AdTech #BigBrother #Journalism #InfoSec #Privacy https://www.windowslatest.com/2026/07/10/you-cant-fully-disable-microsofts-gdid-windows-11-tracker-but-these-setti...

At last some movement ... The New York attorney general on Thursday sued (...) of continuing to expose consumers to products containing chemicals linked to health problems long after the companies knew of their danger. “Big companies (...) knowingly sold toxic products that threatened New Yorkers’ health and polluted our environment for decades,” Attorney General Letitia James said in a statement on Thursday. “It’s time for them to pay for the damage they caused." #PFAS https://www.nytime...

"Detection happens after the fact. By the time there's an image to scan, the child has already been raped - and I use that word on purpose, since "abuse" softens what is actually done to us. Scanning (...).There's only one thing harder than finding a needle in a haystack - finding the same needle once you've buried it in a stack of identical needles, which is exactly what scanning hundreds of billions of messages a day creates." #ChatControl #Security #Privacy #E...

Worth your time. 👇 &quot;In a time of energy shortage and, as noted, climate challenges, we have to accept that the world is going ALL IN on massive AI data centers that slurp up our water and emit vast amounts of CO₂ and gigawatts of heat. (...) Meanwhile, a total lunatic is in charge of the US nuclear arsenal, and he starts random wars with no plan, and there is zero indication that the military or courts or congress are inclined to stop him in any way. #Haywire https://berthub.eu/art...

122 days left ... then Google will restrict which apps you can use on your Android smartphone. &quot;After the update lands, you can only run software that Google has pre-approved. On your phone: your property, that you paid for. Then the company that made your device gets to decide, after you&#39;ve bought it, what software you&#39;re allowed to run. &quot; Sign the petition against this: https://www.change.org/p/stop-google-from-limiting-apk-file-usage and stay in control of...

If you get lucky, you happen to be in Venice while Festa di San Marco and encounter the doge. The rose is called &#39;boccolo&#39; and on that day you give it to the one you love. ❤️ #Venezia #Venice

In het afgelopen jaar is Nederland geconfronteerd met meerdere, grote datalekken. Maar, welke schade veroorzaakt een datalek? En hoe groot is groot? Hoe erg is het? En hoe kun je als organisatie de impact kunt beperken? #Privacy #Onderwijs https://communities.surf.nl/privacy/artikel/verklein-de-impact-van-een-datalek/

So, last week I was at the birthday of my aunt Mina (named after queen Wilhelmina, like me) with my mother of 83. Mina turned 90. Still as sharp as a knife and eloquelent in her way. I loved that afternoon, even while sitting indoors. The wit, the curiosity in people of now. Amazing. #Elderly #CelebrateLife #Uithuizen #Grunn Travelled by train ...

Het houdt niet op. &quot;Om vergelijkbare redenen ziet het College voor de Rechten van de Mens ook grote bezwaren tegen de wet, schreven zij vorig jaar in een brief aan de Tweede Kamer. Het college vindt dat het plan ‘aanzienlijke grondrechtelijke risico’s’ met zich meebrengt. Dat gaat dan vooral om ‘het recht op privacy, vrijheid van meningsuiting, demonstratievrijheid en non-discriminatie.’&quot; #massasurveillance https://www.trouw.nl/binnenland/burgers-zonder-verdenking-online-in-...
