11·1 year agoWhat if you ask if you can borrow their phone and password for an hour? They have nothing to hide?
I think both solutions are probably reasonable secure. Personally I use the proton solution, because I like that my data is in Europe and I prefer to pay for services. I like the more transparent and honest business where I pay and get something in return.
35·2 years agoRich people are obsessed with controlling normal people lives. Like these people don’t work from home or wherever they want. This is about flexing authority and dominance.
Nerdy communities always seem to attract some very opinionated people, which is a turn off for people just trying to do better.
I think David Graeber and David Wengrove make a case that it has worked in bigger communities too.
Yea, it’s called indexing, it’s well documented: https://www.oxfordbibliographies.com/display/document/obo-9780199756841/obo-9780199756841-0090.xml
Maybe Write Freely? You get 3 blogs for 6 dollars a month or you can host it yourself since it’s open source.
If people actively pay for this, they are bloody idiots.
2·2 years agoYes, but they do it in a way that make rich people even richer. And the trickle down economy makes sure that it also makes politicians richer.

It’s not about privacy. It’s about AI companies stealing other peoples work and knowledge and profiting. Like what they did with artists. And I think that’s bothering a lot of people. It’s kind of sad that we cannot exchange information with each other for free, without some Silicon Valley crooks taking advantage and trying to convert other people’s good will into profit.
These LLMs are also polluting the web with AI junk and slop. The web is absolutely tainted with shitty ChatGPT text and images, making it harder and harder to find authentic information. I think a lot of people don’t want to contribute with that.
It seems to matter for the users at Stack Overflow. And why should anybody give anything for free to the crooks in Silicon Valley. All they do is create technology designed to extract value out of people and give as little as possible back.
It’s owned by Meta/Facebook a company that’s makes its money spying on users. Signal or Simplex Chat are much better choices.
How could anybody stop the AI robbers from stealing content from the fediverse?
I think something like Simplex Chat is easier to use.
I’m sure the Saudis are super fair and would not dream of targeting queer people.
She links to a news article: https://www.saudigazette.com.sa/article/641746/SAUDI-ARABIA/Etidal-Telegram-remove-over-16-million-extremist-contents-in-early-2024
I don’t think Telegram denies doing mass surveillance. They might deny targeting queer groups and claim to only target extremist, whatever that means.
Maybe not Russia, but they sure are working with a certain government:
Yes, those too
