WTF?

#France goes full #Cyberfacist:
#DGSI literally classified using #FullDiskEncryption, @torproject #TorBorwser, #Tails, @protonmail and #VPN's as "suspicious activity" in terms of #terrorism...

SERIOUSLY, DID THESE #MILINTEL IDIOTS DRANK SOME WINE WITH ETHYLENE GLYCOL OR WHAT!?

Arrested for using Linux, Windows 11 loses users, Better FOSS Firmware - Linux & Open Source News

@kkarhan @protonmail @torproject I wonder how they found out he used all these tools and what was the reason to even look at these people and investigate in the first place.

@anders @torproject @linuxexperiment well, besides @protonmail being know to snitch on people, they might've been shoulder-surfing them...

After all, #RossUlbricht got his Laptop snatched when he was in a public library to use it's WiFi...

@anders @torproject @linuxexperiment

OFC your question is pretty valid on it's own so either #DGSI still places operatives in #Hackspaces like the one for @LaQuadrature or they f**ked up their #ITsec, #InfoSec, #OpSec and #ComSec...

But then again, kids got accused of "hacking the schools network" for using #Linux...

Also @tails sadly doesn't have any good #UndercoverMode for a long time - unlike say @kalilinux...

@anders @torproject @linuxexperiment @LaQuadrature @kalilinux @tails

Which quite wounders me since #Tails also just uses #Gnome - like #KaliLinux - and in theory should be able to just copy and run the same designs...

Personally I'd love to make that happen, but the socioeconomic requirement for Wagework kinda prevents me from having the energy to do so.

@anders @torproject @linuxexperiment @LaQuadrature @kalilinux @tails

Needless to say the #ChillingEffect is the far biggest problem, not that people use tech.

After all, people don't get #sus'd of armed robberies and child kidnapping as well as arrested when they drive around in a white boxtruck without any corporate foiljob or back windows...

@kkarhan
Yeah it's pretty strange what happens to some governments. I feel like these kind of things are problems in the west/western Europe.

Here in the eastern part it seems a bit different. We still have corruption of course but in a different way.

And also here in Hungary they don't seem so crazy about checking people. The police officers actually are quite sane here - they have common sense and tend to not really force laws that dont make sense.

I actually have more of a feeling that the Hungarian police is there to protect and not harass people. Anyways my point is not to overpromote central/eastern Europe but I myself am coming from Denmark and it's sad to see the direction this government has been taking with the other western European countries.

@anders

Depends...

#Orban is a #Christofacist POS, it's just that police in Hungary are less able and/or willing to go after people that can lawyer up when they instead can harass queer folks.

But I do so the rampant #cyberfacism as main threat to #freedom, #peace, #democracy and #humanrights.

@torproject @LaQuadrature @kalilinux @linuxexperiment @tails

@kkarhan

Maybe that's true. At least from my perspective Hungary is doing better in terms of freedom. Also I tend to agree more with right wing politics so #Hungary is perfect for me. I agree with many things that #Orban says and does but of course there are things I don't like too, but we take the bad sides with the good sides and calculate the overall image.

For example for pension savings I would place this in #Denmark, not in Hungary because the #Fidesz government doesn't seem to have a great track record with these 😂

So being a citizen of a left wing country, but living in a right wing country is the perfect combination for me because in this way I can enjoy the best from both worlds ✨
