It should come as no surprise that #Meta and Suckerberg are filtering #ICE lists and manipulating the platforms for Donald. Not only did Suckerberg sit alongside all the data oligarchs at Trump's inauguration, but ICE agents are also using Meta eyewear and facial recognition to track and identify protestors and immigrants.

Today's report from the #DHS to Congress indicates that they had information about #AlexPretti long before they shot him. ICE agents had previously broken one of his ribs at a prior protest, when he was beaten by them.

TikTok unlawfully tracks your shopping habits – and your use of dating apps

TikTok tracks its users even if they're using other apps. The video platform therefore also knows what dating app you use

The #Canadian Association for Work and #Labour Studies #CAWLS is calling on the federal government to immediately restore #PublicAccess to #DataTracking work stoppages and to collect more information on #LabourRelations.

It has now been over three months since Employment and Social Development Canada #ESDC quietly removed data tracking work stoppages from its website. This move also affected #StatisticsCanada tables which report strike and lockout numbers historically. The removal of these #data deprives #researchers and #unions of critical information.

Why I Moved to Linux: My Journey to Privacy, Freedom, and Control

After years of frustration with Windows and macOS, I finally switched to Linux. This is the story of how I took back control of my computer, from privacy and performance to freedom and trust, and why Ubuntu turned out to be the perfect choice for everyday use.
