New Report Helps #Journalists Dig Deeper Into Police #Surveillance Tech

A new report released today offers journalists tips on cutting through the sales hype about police surveillance tech & report accurately on costs, benefits, #privacy , & #accountability as these invasive & often ineffective tools come to communities across the nation.

The “Selling Safety” report is a joint project of the EFF, the Center for Just #Journalism (CJJ), and #IPVM.

Shuffling around some videos. I clipped my 3 minute #IPVM update and @everywherecomputer launch and put it on our PeerTube instance.

You can also follow the channel directly @[email protected] - we’ll be putting demos and screencasts and things there too

Everywhere Computer Launch and IPVM Updates

Is there an #opensource backed standard for annotating others’ webpages?

I’m thinking specifically being able to tag others’ sites with #IndieWeb h-cards (eg. Adding machine readable event tags to pages like this: https://www.ewanbleach.com/events)

or something more fancy, like letting me attach (#ipvm runnable?) WASM to that page that will extract an iCal file.

I want to make microformats and standard metadata more available without everyone having to get on board.

Heading to Istanbul for #Devconnect today. YVR -> YUL -> IST

I’ve got a number of presentations I’m giving, mostly about @fission’s work with IPFS and our new reference implementation of #IPVM: Wasm-focused decentralized compute https://fission.codes/ipvm

Two events I’m helping organize:

On Thursday, IPFS Connect https://istanbul2023.ipfsconnect.org

And Friday is WalletUncon https://walletuncon.org

Fission is building IPVM or the InterPlanetary Virtual Machine. IPVM aims to be the "HTTP of compute" - open, interoperable, and everywhere, from client browsers to servers.

Are you a node runner, serverless function developer, or front-end developer? We are running a closed beta test of Homestar, the first implementation of IPVM, and we'd love for you to join us.
