Everyone on X is now rage-baiting others by intentionally posting false, racist and controversial posts to farm engagement, all just to earn money. Social network needs to be de-centralised, it needs to be like open internet which no single company or government can control. Only then it will be the town square of the humanity which Elon wants X to be. #mastodon #activitypub

Could we please go back to the version of the internet patched together by chewing gum and goodwill;

the domain of the well-meaning, Aloha shirt-clad, neck-bearded hippie;

the time of the lady poet-engineer who wrote spanning tree protocols and prose to match them;

where the only thing you had to do to connect to other humans was to be "capable of sending and receiving packets";

where we share spare GPU cycles to search for extra-terrestrial life or to run HPC workloads for curing cancer;

where the internet was wild and unstructured and embryonic and so full of potential and life and --- I'm not sure - vectors? paths? possibilities?

At which fork or trunk or change did the current slop-enshitti-net emerge?

People often ask why does it matter if government is able to access criminalsโ€™ data. There will always be some short term sacrifices required to maintain long term stability. Not able to access this data is the short term sacrifice we must make. If the current government becomes tyrant and starts suppressing opposition voices, it will know who exactly to target if it has access to all data about everyone. In a democracy people need to have more power than govt #privacy

Microsoft confirms it will give the FBI your Windows PC data encryption key if asked โ€” you can thank Windows 11's forced online accounts for that

Microsoft says it will provide the FBI with BitLocker encryption keys if requested for PCs that upload their key to the cloud via your Microsoft Account.
