Balance:
a) damage done by another Trump presidency
vs
b) damage done by demonstrating to the ruling class that you'll give them whatever they want so long as you genuinely fear one of the candidates
Tough call. I wish each and every one of you who has a say in this clairvoyance beyond mine.
There's something sad about society losing a such a unique source of knowledge, but hopefully we've collectively learned something about the dangers of trusting proprietary solutions.
Anyone found a reliable way to search across Lemmy instances they can share?
After the changes to their TOS I lost any trust I had in Proton
Proton AG lost me as a customer the minute they backdoored a binding arbitration clause into their TOS last year.
The difficulty of proving damages in breach of privacy cases combined with generally weak privacy legislation globally means the threat of a class action often serves as one of the only practical deterrents to abuses of power by corporations controlling sensitive personal information. By changing its terms of service, Proton essentially immunized itself from suffering any significant penalty in the event its negligence leads to a mass breach of privacy of its users.
Tactics like the use of binding arbitration clauses are hallmarks of inherently untrustworthy corporations.
Pretty sure this is just privacy washing. The real issue here is censorship.
Highly recommend pairing this with David Allen's GTD and Rainer König's excellent course Getting yourself organized with Org-mode
Fairy Creek also received surprisingly little MSM media coverage despite being reportedly Canada's largest civil disobedience campaign in almost 20 years.
While it could be argued that this under-reporting could be attributed to the RCMP's heavy handed treatment of journalists at the site, it doesn't appear that any of the country's well funded MSM joined the court challenge to the RCMP's restricting of media access.
Anyone care to share their thoughts on proper netiquette when posting to a Peertube instance?
Specifically I'd be interested to learn if it's only considered appropriate for those contributing to the network (either by hosting a server or contributing financially) to post or if the uploading of original work is itself is considered a contribution.
Service is fine, but GNU/Linux support needs improvement.
They just changed their TOS to forbid paying customers from seeking any form of judicial remedy, so you can guess the direction they're headed.
Needless to say I won't be renewing.
Thanks so much for hosting this instance.
Sorry for my ignorance, but would you mind clarifying which of your rules lemmygrad violated to get on your blocklist?
Because tchncs understands that without free speech we have no hope of dealing with any of the problems that concern us.
Federation status
social.tchncs.de does not believe in censorship. Federation is a network service and suspension of federation with another server will only be implemented as a last resort where content from another server may cause problems under German law, or in cases of technical difficulties or hostile or malicious activity.
