‘It beggars belief’: MoD sources warn Palantir’s role at heart of government is threat to UK’s security

Experts say that claims UK data remains under government ownership miss the point that the company has the capability to build its own detailed picture of the British population, and even infer state secrets. Report by Charlie Young and Carole Cadwalladr

Saudi Vision 2030 and the Rise of Data Sovereignty: What Businesses Should Actually Understand

Privacy governance is no longer just a European conversation.

Finally installed Gimp 3.x after being on 2.x for some time because... while I think I stink at it, I do enjoy fiddling with images.

And... why would I pay a subscription to rely on a service?

Quick stuff I do with #Paintnet. When I want to really fiddle, I break out the #gimp

That third-party LLM API bill just landed. And the security team is asking where your data is going.

Camille Nigon and Maarten Vandeperre at DevOpsDays Zürich 2026 share a practical blueprint for building a sovereign Model-as-a-Service platform with open-source models.

Stop being a consumer, start being a provider.

MIF - My Ideal Forum. Part 2.

I connected with Arthur (@radarsu), a dev building a data-sovereignty protocol without blockchains. We moved from Discord to Matrix and had a great talk.

His vision: a "Personal CMS" – desktop app with email client, storage for notes/passwords/photos, and a publishing platform to cross-post to socials. All decentralized: your data stays with you, you grant permissions per app, no more cookie pop-ups, no lock-in. User verification via 3D face hash (like realeyes.ai) – anonymous but bot-proof.

Meanwhile, my tiny team shaped our MIF first steps: spin up different forum sites, sync them via DB converters, fill with useful content from parsers (ethically). Maximum "collective farm" decentralization for starters. Later – selective sync so each node stores only what its users want. Need experts for the final DB schema.

Day well spent. 🛠️

Evaluating OpenClaw for enterprise AI?

Relying on public cloud APIs for autonomous agents introduces prompt injection risks and massive scaling costs (easily $2,500+/mo).

Our engineering deep-dive cuts through the hype to explore secure, sovereign AI deployment.

✅ Mitigate prompt injections via Docker sandboxing
✅ Achieve 100% data privacy on Bare Metal GPUs

¿Estamos ante el fin del chantaje de las farmacéuticas gracias a la IA?

Es que es para flipar. Llevamos décadas aceptando que si una enfermedad es "rara" o "poco rentable", simplemente no se investiga. "No hay mercado", te dicen mientras se llenan los bolsillos con la enésima pastilla para el colesterol que ya funciona.

Pero lo que está pasando con la IA y el plegamiento de proteínas es un bofetón de realidad para los de siempre. Estamos viendo cómo algoritmos encuentran dianas terapéuticas en meses para enfermedades que llevaban 30 años cogiendo polvo en un cajón porque a ninguna Big Pharma le salían los números.

Me parece brutal que la tecnología esté haciendo el trabajo sucio que la ética empresarial no quiso hacer. Por fin la IA sirve para algo más que para hacernos perder el tiempo o quitarnos el curro; está salvando vidas donde el capitalismo decidió que no valía la pena invertir.

¿Soy el único que piensa que esto es lo más "punk" que le ha pasado a la medicina en años o soy un optimista de mierda? Porque si esto sigue así, el monopolio del descubrimiento se les va a ir de las manos.
