Whether this is about ActivityPub or not is of little consequence to us. All we see is that without some level of #participation/input from peers to help serve specific content (images and video), it is quite obvious that the #Fediverse will trend back towards re-centralisation.

We call on #I2P developers to explore how they can make something like #GlutPlug work in fediverse clients like #Tokodon (possibly #Fedilab too, but #AllPhonesAreBad so maybe not).

Great effort here!

We have come to the point of realising that there are no #ethicalPhones. All of them require proprietary bits to power the #wifi and #radio components.

Thus all #smartphones are unable to be used in our view.

This might just be an #Australia problem, however and your country might be okay, but we sincerely doubt it. It appears to be a global problem.

This sounds like code for, "We have already been doing this for a decade but we just need a veil of legitimacy so the plebs know their place, shut up and go home.

Everyone should know how to make a #FaradayCase for their oversized, "#smartphone" (read: tracking device).

Apparently it is news that #AmazonRing and Apple #iPhones are #malware?

Amazon #Ring (but its just a few bad employees targetting #women though):

Dodgy #Apple phones (its just #CIA targetting #Russians, right?)

Sorry for the late response.

The #InviziblePro app sounds like a compelling solution that one can use mobile devices, with the help of friends at #FDroid.

Unfortunately, it seems #Australia don't allow ethical #telephony devices into the country. What we mean when we say that is devices that can easily be flashed with ethical #FOSS firmware. Otherwise it would be a contender.

Today we prescribe to #APAB or #AllPhonesAreBad.

People that insist on putting their #smartphone in your #freezer when they visit you are salt of the earth.

Researcher does his best to not offend the #technoFeudalists, but we see no errs or umms about it - #GoOGlE IS EVIL.
