Most people think about privacy way too little. To compensate, I think about privacy way too much.

@autonomysolidarity London being infamous for the extent of its video surveillance, it was about time people got angry...

If only they had better motivation than the privilege of driving a car.

More than 300 cameras damaged or stolen in four months #London
"(...)
Over four months, the Met received 339 reports of camera cables being damaged, or cameras being stolen or obscured.
The actual number of cameras affected is likely to be even higher as one report can represent multiple cameras.
Unofficial data mapping the location of disabled cameras suggests that almost 500 cameras could have been affected."

@eff I think this is worth repeating:

> The mobile network does not encrypt calls or text messages end-to-end, nor does it conceal your location.

It *could* do these things. We have technologies that can do these things. But mobile networks just don't do it.

Imagine Star Wars, but, every droid in the galaxy is literally run by the Empire, they talk home to Coruscant every night for software updates, and the Rebel Alliance thinks this is just fine and doesn't understand how come they keep losing key battles

That's our future if we don't change the trajectory we're on.

I don't know how to make anyone who matters understand that.

@aral What does "transferring to the Russian zone" mean in this context? Is this going to be a Chinese style firewall, or an even higher level of isolation?

"EU Parliament Scraps Proof-of-Work Ban Following Backlash"

Can we create backlash to the backlash? Proof-of-work is actively harming the world right now. I'm pretty sure that the group of people who created the original "backlash" are a rich minority.
