Unabhängigkeit wird immer wichtiger – Zu bequem haben wir uns von großen US-Diensten abhängig gemacht – und zahlen mit Daten, Kontrolle und Einfluss. Ein Umstieg bedeutet Arbeit, aber es geht um die Kontrolle über die eigene digitale Identität und Freiheit. https://robert-deutz.de/meinung/17-unabhaenigkeit-wird-immer-wichtiger.html #DigitalSouveränität #Unabhängigkeit #noTechBros
Unabhänigkeit wird immer wichtiger

Private Webseit evon Robert Deutz. Themen die mich bewegen, interessieren und über die ich etwas sagen möchte.

Hello, this is a new adventure.
#notechbros #saferinternetday #letsdoit
Also ich muss heute mal sagen, dass ich echt froh bin, dass es das #fediverse gibt und wir hier sind. Ich fühle mich hier echt wohl. Danke an alle.

“A number of folks work less than 60 hours and a small number put in the bare minimum to get by,” he wrote. “This last group is not only unproductive but also can be highly demoralizing to everyone else.”

60 hours per week. No respect for the Sabbath, health, or family life, evidently.

Apparently Jeff Bezos has directed the editorial staff at WashPo to only write in support of free markets and personal liberties.

You know, free markets like Amazon.

I'm on my way to full #degoogle ops... I've started a trial of #fastmail (fastmail.com), and am hoping to fully transition my domain over for email/ calendar in the next month.

PSA / FYI: Adobe is a POS company... as is any company whose business model involves free trials that automatically transition to paid subscriptions... and especially when those paid subscriptions try to automatically be a 1-year minimum contract.

And by the way, maybe double check first that your free trial isn't going to a minor, who can't legally enter into your ludicrous contract in the first place! Idiots.

#CISA gets downsized (presumably).

Prediction:
1. Increased rate of cybersecurity incidents in USG.
2. Leaders decry the sad state of USG cybersecurity.
3. Private corporations get pulled in to handle it all.
4. Keys to the kingdom go to the #TechBros.

Question: What would happen if copyright/IP didn't exist?

This was (kind of) the case pre-1700, I believe.

Who would get hurt, once industries adapted?

Would writers stop writing?
Would musicians stop making music?
Would no one write software?

Is there a world in which this would ultimately, only hurt the rent-seekers?
