Guide : protéger son serveur personnel Linux avec Fail2ban

Avoir un serveur sur un MiniPC c'est bien, l'ouvrir vers l'extérieur c'est mieux. Si des usages locaux sont évidemment nombreux, le véritable intérêt d'un serveur est de proposer des usages en li...

Opt Out of Klout - Now!

https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2013/06/opt-out-of-klout-now/

Sites like Klout and Kred are perfect examples of social media frippery. A vaguely plausible "score" that you can use to justify your "investment" in tweeting all day long. When they're used as a silly little badge, or an informal competition with friends, they're a (mostly) harmless way of gamification.

Of continual annoyance is the complete lack of transparency these services show. How is your score calculated? Is anyone manipulating it? What can you do to improve it?

Still, it doesn't matter, it's only a silly number, eh? No one takes it seriously, right?

Wrong. Yammer, the internal social network of choice for most businesses, have announced they're going to team up with Klout so managers can see employees' scores.

What was once just a daft badge is now something to be bought up at your annual performance review. Want that promotion? You'd better hope that spending all day getting retweeted by celebrities helps your "influencer" score.

No.

It's time to withdraw our consent from these leeches who take our data, run it through an obfuscated process, and then attempt to sell it back to us.

It's time to stop being held open to blackmail. How long before they start offering a paid for service to help you improve your score?

It's time to refuse to be placed in an artificial competition where the rules are unknown and the results arbitrary.

Here's how you opt out of Klout.

  • Visit klout.com/corp/optout
  • Ignore their self-serving hogwash and scroll to the bottom of the page.
  • Verify your identity with Twitter.
  • Fill in a very short form telling them to go to hell.
  • Hit "Submit".

    • Get on with your life and be happy. A number on a screen doesn't control your destiny; you do.

    Do you ever get any FREE Products distributors?

    My first Bird Site account, I was considered an *Influencer* #KLOUT used to give me FREE Products and samples; no obligation but they hoped I would talk about them.

    I forgot how many products were sent to me: My wife used 100s of dollars worth of NEUTROGENA®, SCHICK, & similar beauty products. I enjoyed a box of assorted Fisherman's Friends cough lozenges, & this small case of Mrs Dash spices.

    @mattdagley I just saw this photo yesterday when I was sorting my collection. I used to be big in Twitter (there was a larger account before) and my #KLOUT score was high, so companies gave me products, hoping I'd talk about them #Influencer . My wife got Neutrogena Skin Care products, Lady Shavers, etc, I even mentioned my fave Cough drops #FishermansFriend and they sent me this. I have too many coffee mugs but I really like that one, and the station. Sailors get lots of *gifts* too.

    Skorr, le successeur de Klout qui veut noter votre influence - Blog du Modérateur

    Il y a quelques semaines, Klout mourrait dans un relatif anonymat, malgré un rachat de l'ordre de 200 millions de dollars en 2014. Il faut dire que cet outil de mesure de l'influence avait connu un déclin rapide de sa popularité, l'effet de mode étant passé. L’influence n'en reste pas moins un thème important pour
