@robinadams : OTOH, if you click on a search result, Google could also send your browser to a runtime generated webpage, like Google Transate does.
For example, if I enter (I've replaced // by Unicode ⧸⧸ to prevent Mastodon from shortening the URLs and hiding "https://"):
🔗 https:⧸⧸www.security.nl/posting/929685/FCC+verbiedt+verkoop+van+nieuwe+routers+van+buitenlandse+fabrikanten+in+VS
into
🔗 https:⧸⧸translate.google.com/?sl=nl&tl=en&op=websites
the eventual URL turns into:
🔗 https:⧸⧸www-security-nl.translate.goog/posting/929685/FCC+verbiedt+verkoop+van+nieuwe+routers+van+buitenlandse+fabrikanten+in+VS?_x_tr_sl=en&_x_tr_tl=nl&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp
In case of AI manipulation, such a link could read, for example,
🔗 https:⧸⧸www-security-nl.ai.goog/posting/929685/FCC+verbiedt+verkoop+van+nieuwe+routers+van+buitenlandse+fabrikanten+in+VS
Nomalizing this will result in even more people to fall for #phishing (replacing dots by dashes). The only thing reasonably trustworthy, the domain name of a website, becomes even more messy.
Apart from the fact that Google may charge websites for this "service" and/or insert their own ads.

@grammasaurus : if I understand the patent correctly, the content seen by a user in their browser will not for 100% originate from your website given its domain name.
However, Google may let their Chrome browser show your domain name in the address bar and even suggest that a server-authenticated and encrypted valid https connection is being used (proving the authenticity of your website, which is then fully broken).
Google may even force other browser makers (such as Mozilla, sponsored by Google) to do the same.

We’re preparing to launch native OpenPGP support in eclipso Mail Europe.
Our web interface is already in the final testing stage, and we’re now looking for experienced users who actively use PGP and would like to help us refine the implementation.
Please note: Our mobile apps (iOS/Android) are still in development and will join later.
If you’re interested in joining the web beta, feel free to reply or send us a DM.

The Danger Behind Meta’s Decision to Kill End-to-End #Encrypted #Instagram DMs
#Meta blamed users for not opting into the #privacy -protecting feature. Experts fear the move could be the first major domino to fall for end-to-end #encryption tech worldwide.

Just FYI for the privacy ppl still on Instagram...
In May, Instagram is disabling end to end encryption for private messages bc (they claim) "low uptake" but rly, bc they want to enable spying on u.
More corpo deception, u know?
So, ur choices...
- Use Insta and swap to something for messaging (Signal is a great choice!)
- Move away from Insta to the Fedi (if you can; some ppl rely on it for income, I know.)
- Let Mark "I creep women and steal their selfies" Zuckerberg spy on u.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@mimikama/116250455842913277
In diesem Fall hat sich der Anbieter freiwillig für die Abschaffung der #Verschlüsselung auf seiner Plattform entschieden. Damit so etwas nicht staatlich erzwungen werden kann, setzen wir uns für ein europäisches Grundrecht auf Verschlüsselung ein.
Diese Position wurde auf dem letzten Parteitag beschlossen: https://antraege.gruene.de/51bdk/chatkontrolle-dauerhaft-verhindern-verschlusselung-als-europaisches-g-44742
O #TikTok enfrenta dois momentos críticos em simultâneo. Um processo judicial em Dublin para contestar uma coima de 530 milhões de euros por transferência de dados para a China, e uma decisão polémica de não adoptar #encriptação nas mensagens.

@hcf @dans_root @earthnewstech @monocles You don't get #SelfCustody of all the keys on their platforms, to the point that #ProtonMail bricks #LKML useage!
Please go to a #CryptoParty and learn abdolute fundamentals re: #Cryptography, #InfoSec, #OpSec & #ComSec.
