After nearly 10 years, Mastodon founder Eugen Rochko steps down as CEO, transferring assets and the trademark to a non-profit ⚖️

The move aims to protect Mastodon’s decentralized, user-controlled values while reducing founder stress and ensuring sustainable governance 🌐

The European Commission wants more techno-capitalist "innovation", and we all have to pay for it with our privacy.

We must stop the Digital Omnibus!

If a device is recording you and everyone around you,

And is sharing all this data with a corporation outside of your control,

It is not a "smart" device,
It is a spying device.

At the very least, you are ethically required to not inflict this surveillance upon others without prior explicit consent.

EU plan wants to scan all your messages on Signal and WhatsApp to check what you’re sending 😧

If you can scan for one thing, you can scan for everything.

Signal would have no choice but to leave Europe.

Mass surveillance doesn't make us safer. We need to deconstruct this false notion.

Mass surveillance is only a tool for control and oppression, it is not for protection.

We must fight age verification with all we have

#AgeVerification laws exploit the moral panic over social media and mental health to repackage old censorship tactics under the guise of protecting children.

'I’ve been talking a lot over the past couple weeks about what an unmitigated disaster the rollout of identity verification has been in the U.K. I wrote a whole piece about it for The Guardian and a story about how these “child safety” crackdowns are a gift to big tech in Zeteo.

The UK’s rollout shows how #digitalID systems lead to mass censorship. They serve those in power, harm human rights, and we have to do everything we can to fight their expansion in the U.S.

Today, I’m excited to present a guest post by Cynthia Conti-Cook, Rebecca Williams, and Pratika Katiya. These three women are doing incredible work fighting back against the surveillance state....'
