È forse la prima volta che un grande servizio rimuove la crittografia end-to-end invece di introdurla. Perché proprio su Instagram?
La risposta è piuttosto semplice: Meta esiste essenzialmente per due motivi:
• fare soldi
• raccogliere dati su tutti, per alimentare il primo punto
Meno privacy significa più dati, più profilazione e più profitto.
E questo dovrebbe farci riflettere su chi controlla davvero le piattaforme che usiamo ogni giorno.

A long and WELL sourced post on exactly who has been behind all the state level legislation aimed at OS level age verification.
"I traced $2 billion in nonprofit grants and 45 states of lobbying records to figure out who's behind the age verification bills. The answer involves a company that profits from your data writing laws that collect more of it."

2 days ago Transport Tycoon Deluxe (the original) got added to the GOG store.
Using a very misleading move GOG has now updated their OpenTTD page to list the original game as a requirement for playing OpenTTD.
This is not true at all. OpenTTD is a standalone game and does not require any files from the original game to work, it even replaces the original graphics.
Do not buy Transport Tycoon Deluxe from GOG. They charge 10 euro for it and it is simply the original game wrapped inside of DOSBox without any changes. Not worth your money.
Instead you should just simply download OpenTTD from the official download on openttd.org and play that instead.
And instead of giving your money to Atari/GOG you can donate money to the OpenTTD project directly. https://www.openttd.org/donate

Il ministro Crosetto e Palantir controversa società di software e analisi dei dati di proprietà di Thiel, simbolo del trumpismo più spietato. Lo certifica una «procedura negoziata» e «secretata» del 2024: una relazione iniziata alcuni anni fa. Intanto dal 18 Thiel è a Roma, ufficialmente per tenere seminari sull’Anticristo e altri temi di religione e Intelligenza artificiale. Platea selezionata, luogo segreto e blindatissimo.

Per chi usa la scrittura swipe, HeliBoard ha avviato un progetto per la raccolta delle tracce di swipe al fine di creare un modello open source per realizzare una libreria alternativa a quella (chiusa) di Google.
Se avete già HeliBoard, trovare nelle impostazioni le istruzioni per partecipare.
Se non l'avete, cosa aspettate ad installarla e contribuire?!!

@informapirata@mastodon.uno @informatica quanto cazzo odio i siti che hanno a che fare con la privacy, FOSS, ecc. che hanno cookie e anche solo un numerino sull'icona di uBlock Origin (l'unica eccezione che accetto è per web stat selfhostate). È pura ipocrisia.

Sta nascendo office.eu, una suite che si pone in diretta concorrenza con i big del settore.
Nasce come soluzione europea, tecnologicamente svincolata da paesi terzi e, in particolare, dagli united states.
Ragazzi... per favore, fate i bravi, prendetevi…
