constantly overwhelmed by the social.
One very important point of the great "Cables of Hope" talk by @alineblankertz@indieweb.social and @malteengeler@legal.social at #CablesOfResistance was:
It is not enough to build "open source" or "european" alternatives to big tech platforms. We need to socialize these platforms, which means actively taking away their power and putting the infrastructures and social resources they enclosed under collective democratic control.
"Open Source is the electric car of digitisation" says @alineblankertz@indieweb.social at #CablesOfResistance
Intentional cutting of submarine internet cables in international waters by non-state actors is legally framed as **piracy**. So if anyone should be planning some high-stakes direct action against the global network of exploitation and oppression the internet has become: Yo Ho Ho!
Here's a whole podcast about the international law of submarine cables and infrastructure under the high seas: https://soundcloud.com/calledtothebar/66-submarine-cables

Can anyone here recommend bluetooth headphones *without* a microphone?
I made the mistake of watching another talk on bluetooth headphone jacking and the things others can do to my mobile devices through my little ear pieces. And since my cheap in-ears are slowly dying, I am looking to replace them. I don't use them for calls anyway, so I don't need a microphone on them - and that already prevents most attack vectors I worry about.
Do you have any recommendations?
Das Kollektiv Capulcu hat eine technische und politische Einordnung von #GrapheneOS geschrieben. Einerseits ist es ein guter Überblick über die technischen Sicherheitsmaßnahmen des mobilen Betriebssystems und andererseits eine wenig überraschende, aber trotzdem grundsätzlich richtige Polemik über Smartphones als Teil des "Technologischen Angriffs" und als Problem in unseren politischen Bewegungen: https://tumulte.org/2026/01/articles/grapheneos-das-betriebssystem-f%C3%BCr-bewegte-chaotinnen

Spam is violence.
AI scrapers are violence.
Yes, finally! Ich hab schon länger um eine gute Übersetzung von AI slop gerungen und "KI-Gatsch" ist einfach die beste ✨
Auf die Gefahr hin, mich durch meinem Regiolekt zu outen: Ist das "pure AI TikTok" namens #Sora dann als ganzes eine "KI-Letten" ? :think_shit:
