Centralized control of internet layers threatens privacy. The TCP/IP model reminds us why decentralized protocols must stay open.

How each layer enables (or risks) freedom (e.g., ISP throttling at Network Access).

Beyond routers & cables — the OSI Model reveals how digital power flows. It’s not just tech; it’s a blueprint for encryption, surveillance, and decentralization. Knowing each layer (especially Physical & Network) helps us fight centralization and build secure, community-owned networks.

🧠 How can we use OSI to reimagine infrastructure?

#CyberSecurity #DigitalRights #CyberActivism: "Since 2009, we've done our best to review and update the guides in SSD. This has included minor changes to respond to news events, depreciating guides completely when they're no longer applicable in modern security plans, and massive rewrites when technology has changed.

The original version of SSD was launched mostly as a static text (we even offered a printer-friendly version), though updates and revisions did occur, they were not publicly tracked as clearly as they are today. In its early years, SSD was able to provide useful guidance across a number of important events, like Occupy Wall Street, before the major site redesign in 2014, which helped it become more useful training activists, including for Ferguson and Standing Rock, amongst others. The ability to update SSD along with changing trends and needs has ensured it can always be useful as a resource.

That redesign also better facilitated the updates process. The site became easier to navigate and use, and easier to update. For example, in 2017 we took on a round of guide audits in response to concerns following the 2016 election. In 2019 we continued that process with around seven major updates to SSD, and in 2020, we did five. We don't have great stats for 2021 and 2022, but in 2023 we managed 14 major updates or new guides. We're hoping to have the majority of SSD reviewed and revamped by the end of this year, with a handful of expansions along the way."

Celebrating 15 Years of Surveillance Self-Defense

On March 3rd, 2009, we launched Surveillance Self-Defense (SSD). At the time, we pitched it as, "an online how-to guide for protecting your private data against government spying." In the last decade hundreds of people have contributed to SSD, over 20 million people have read it, and the content...

#Cybersecurity #Ransomware #Activism #Cyberactivism: "A new and increasingly active ransomware group that’s attacked nearly 200 organizations in less than two months has a different spin on its extortion efforts: Don’t pay us, pay a charity.

So far, this unnamed group that is at least publicly claiming to be driven by anti-capitalist sentiment and its own brand of cyber benevolence is largely targeting users of Zimbra, an online workplace collaboration tool.

“Unlike traditional ransomware groups, we’re not asking you to send us money,” read the text of one ransom note posted April 2 on an online forum for Zimbra users. “We just dislike corporations and economic inequality. We simply ask that you make a donation to a non-profit that we approve of. It’s a win-win, you can probably get a tax deduction and good PR from your donation if you want.”"

A different kind of ransomware demand: Donate to charity to get your data back

The group has claims nearly 180 targets despite being relatively new and casts its attacks as a form of activism.

Just saw "The internet's own boy: the story of Aaron Swartz" and wow, this guy was just amazing. I didn't know his story, just little things I'd heard here and there but now, everything is clearer. I understand why a lot of people miss him (and me from now on).

I really suggest you watch this #documentary.

Plus, on an open platform 😉

@Aster imagino q existam, ou talvez devessem existir, bots reunindo informações de interesse, tipo anarquismo, veganismo, permacultura, direitos humanos, para além da mídia aberta, envolvendo desde conteúdos mais voláteis (blogs e mídias sociais) até bibliotecas de e-books disponíveis por torrent, por exemplo
