RT @Sendinthewolf@twitter.com: @jessehirsh@twitter.com is 100% right. It doesn't get much clearer than this. Data #privacy and transparency are prerequisites of #Democracy. But when Facebook controls public speech, democracy is just a cost to be avoided. #cdnpoli https://www.cigionline.org/articles/canadian-elections-cant-side-step-social-media-influence

@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.

The Gov agrees #ageverification technology requires strong #privacy protections. Tell them to make the @BBFC@twitter.com's new privacy scheme compulsory. Privacy should be a priority, not an afterthought. https://action.openrightsgroup.org/making-age-verification-privacy-rules-matter

I don’t give a Linus if you have “open” in your name or a penguin as your logo if you continue to enthusiastically and uncritically promote and legitimise the surveillance devices of Google and its kin, you are part and parcel of #SurveillanceCapitalism and no ally of mine.

I sincerely hope they change their mind
I have nothing to hide
I also have nothing to show
"New Zealand has become the first country to threaten travelers with prosecution and fines if they refuse to hand over passwords for their digital devices at security."
"We’re not aware of any other country that has legislated for the potential of a penalty to be applied if people do not divulge their passwords"

@how This is progress. Three years ago, when I first brought this up, afaik no one pulled out. Today, withholding your legitimacy from privacy events sponsored by surveillance capitalists like Palantir, Google, and Facebook is how you retain your legitimacy.
Let me also state that differently, so that there’s no confusion: if you speak at events on privacy sponsored by surveillance capitalists like Palantir, Google, or Facebook, you have no legitimacy in #privacy.

"I sold my users’ privacy to a larger benefit. I made a choice and a compromise. And I live with that every day" #WhatsApp founder regrets that he sold WhatsApp to #Facebook. He waived $850 million and left Facebook.

This just popped up on my Apple TV:
“Your playback, searches, and device trust score are used to personalise your experience, improve that of others, and prevent fraud.”
What the fucking fuck, Apple? No, this is not OK at all.
