Oh look. A gold digger ex who was getting €150000 per month to look after 3 kids is suddenly claiming domestic abuse against Pavel Durov. Convenient.

Of course. A is going to be a useful tool for making false allegations against a tech ceo to pressure him into censoring content and giving the backdoor access to .
Wonder if Signal and WhatsApp have backdoors already.

If only had listened and gone long ago

Another #Privacy #blackpill.

@microg has disabled/banned LocalNLP and #DejaVu as NLP location provders on Android.
Forcing you to only rely on Mozilla location services.
So, the alternative to Google and its online #location queries that can be tracked and captured by #geofencing warrants is now forcing you to use online location queries.
#Android users that want privacy have to abandon #NLP altogether and settle for unreliable, buggy battery-draining GPS only.

So, Michael Jackson was acquitted of all paedophilia accusations on June 13th, 2005 after an #FBI investigation that involved seizing and looking through all his devices.
A child made a claim of abuse only after his father drugged him.
But the #media made all believe he was a paedo.

@tournel He is more of a free speech hero than a privacy hero.

His platform is one of many that is helping the people to turn the shop of humanity away from the iceberg.

We are skeptical of all platforms but use those available to us by helping to create systems that provide improvements in privacy and resilience.

🚨 NEW: The Foo Fighters LIED about Trump not having permission to use “My Hero” while introducing RFK Jr

Trump should SUE these leftist hacks for defamation.

The Trump campaign actually DID license the song through BMI’s Songview service, as confirmed by documents provided to the Independent.

The Foo Fighters said they’ll be taking “action” against the campaign, and any proceeds will be donated to the Harris campaign

Virtue signaling pieces of crap.

TELEGRAM STATEMENT AFTER CEO DUROV ARRESTED IN FRANCE: "It is absurd to claim that a platform or its owner are responsible for abuse of that platform. Telegram abides by EU laws, including the Digital Services Act — its moderation is within industry standards and constantly improving."

"Telegram CEO Pavel Durov has nothing to hide and travels frequently in Europe. Almost a billion users globally use Telegram as means of communication and as a source of vital information. We’re awaiting a prompt resolution of this situation. Telegram is with you all."

Taking away corporate welfare and welfare for having children and welfare via public sector jobs would raise the birth rate

Women on average can not get as good jobs as men on merit

Taking away these three sources of welfare for women at the taxpayer expense of males would encourage women to choose to marry men who are on average more competent at work in order to get resources

Like #bitcoin, #Nostr is a community-run digital network highly resistant to censorship and corruption. It has 40,000 weekly active users and a growing ecosystem of clients and applications ranging from social media to long-form publishing to payments.

Nostr is only necessary because our existing internet is so broken.

Fifteen years ago, social media seemed destined to decentralize the world and give power back to the people. In 2009, we watched as Arab Spring activists used #Twitter and #Facebook to organize, coordinate, and help topple several long-standing dictatorships. The promise was that these new social platforms, designed by Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, could help liberate the masses.

It was intoxicating—but turned out to be a mirage. The Arab revolutions stalled out when brutal military regimes cracked down. These platforms became tools for spying and censoring their users. #X and Facebook have helped journalists and human rights activists reach bigger audiences, but they haven't fulfilled their revolutionary promise.

Google's unfair control over Android and how it would be used to force you into State surveillance by killing off competitors/alternatives

So, in short, #Google is using their "safety features" like #SafetyNet and so on to reject #MFA on third party apps like #Authy from working on custom ROMs like #GrapheneOS.
I always feared that this shift towards #Biometrics and other #Passwordless logins will be a trojan to force anti-privacy methods of authentication on everyone.
A lot of #banks already force customers to use proprietary methods of 2FA when #TOTP and #HOTP work just fine.
Some schools and organisations force students and members to use proprietary Push-Based 2FA like Duo or a proprietary Microsoft Authentication (a lot of companies run their enterprise emails using Microsoft) that is only available on the Microsoft Authenticator app.

In the long run, the scarier possibility is that Google might just lock down Android completely and remove features like Side-loading or OEM-unlocking, thus, killing off custom ROMs. They already locked out content blocking with #extensions on #Chromium browsers and stopped extension developers from making .crx files available making Google's extension store the only practical place to get extensions (and maybe a few censorious alternatives like Microsoft Store for Edge users)
