Dr. Roy Schestowitz (罗伊) (schestowitz)'s status on Sunday, 21-Apr-2019 15:29:13 UTC Dr. Roy Schestowitz (罗伊) People who boast that they have "nothing to hide" are saying that their #privacy is worthless and thus I suppose they might also say that whatever they say is worthless (maybe true is they actually say "I have nothing to hide"; like saying "I'm NPC") -

Kyle Rankin (kylerankin)'s status on Sunday, 23-Dec-2018 16:07:39 UTC Kyle Rankin My Mom got a new phone 6 months ago and only shared her new # with me and 3 others. Months later she bought a new laptop and registered Microsoft Word (which apparently requires her phone # now?). A day or two later she started getting a stream of telemarketing calls. #privacy

ar.al🌻 (aral)'s status on Wednesday, 14-Nov-2018 10:42:21 UTC ar.al🌻 @gvenk #Mozilla should not be trusted on #privacy. Their head of EU policy said yesterday at the Nordic Privacy Arena that they are primarily a Silicon Valley tech company, that they do not see adtech/surveillance-based behavioural advertising as a problem (and they do not) and that they are partners with Google (they are and they have gotten >$B from them and have a current deal that gets them 100s of millions of $ every year). Mozilla is a surveillance capitalist.

Bob Jonkman (bobjonkman)'s status on Monday, 08-Oct-2018 18:54:30 UTC Bob Jonkman #GooglePlus is shutting down because of a data breach that #Google can't be bothered to make secure. No idea how bad the breach is, since Google deleted logs to hide from regulatory scrutiny. https://www.engadget.com/2018/10/08/google-reportedly-exposed-data-for-hundreds-of-thousands-of-user/ #Privacy -
Privacy.FYI (privacy)'s status on Saturday, 29-Sep-2018 18:22:04 UTC Privacy.FYI The internet is already broken bc of #Google.
Try it. Block all gooogle IPs, subsidiaries, libraries, & so-called ‘free services.’ Venture further to co’s they invest in like HTC, MagicLeap, etc. Things won't look right, not load, not allow you #ReCaptcha access, no notifications, nada etc. This is why #FuckOffGoogle is important. #Google is a monopoly bc there is no way to not give them your personal information when wanting to surf the www safely without being #Privacy #PeolpleFarm’ed by them. -

If a site can tell you're browsing incognito, then it's completely failed to prevent data leakage
I'd very much like to know how these sites accomplish this privacy violation

switching.social (switchingsocial)'s status on Sunday, 27-May-2018 14:24:49 UTC switching.social If you use #GoogleDrive, you are also allowing Google to do whatever they want with your files: they can read them, copy them, give them to anyone else, make derivative works, even publish them online without your permission (see attached screenshot). #DropBox is similar.
In other words, private files uploaded to Google Drive are no longer private.
You might want to try #privacy aware #NextCloud instead, which actually lets you control who gets to see/use your stuff:

“People who submit DNA for ancestors testing are unwittingly becoming genetic informants on their innocent family,” Steve Mercer, the chief attorney for the forensic division of the Maryland Office of the Public Defender, told the AP. He added that they “have fewer privacy protections than convicted offenders whose DNA is contained in regulated databanks.”

Mike Gerwitz (mikegerwitz)'s status on Saturday, 06-Jan-2018 02:53:08 UTC Mike Gerwitz Just got word that I'll be speaking again at this year's #LibrePlanet! I was going to attend regardless, but I'm very excited to be able to continue to build off of last year's talk.
The title of this year's talk is The Ethics Void. Here's a rough abstract:
Medicine, legal, finance, journalism, scientific research—each of these fields and many others have widely adopted codes of ethics governing the lives of their professionals. Some of these codes may even be enshrined in law. And this is for good reason: these are fields that have enormous consequences.
Software and technology pervade not only through these fields, but through virtually every aspect of our lives. Yet, when compared to other fields, our community leaders and educators have produced an ethics void. Last year, I introduced numerous topics concerning #privacy, #security, and #freedom that raise serious ethical concerns. Join me this year as we consider some of those examples and others in an attempt to derive a code of ethics that compares to each of these other fields, and to consider how leaders and educators should approach ethics within education and guidance.
My previous talks can be found here:

For this talk, I want to solicit the community at various points. I know what _I_ want to talk about, but what are some of the most important ethical issues to _you_? Unfortunately there's far too much to fit into a 40m talk! Also feel free to e-mail me at mtg@gnu.org. -
