For the #privacy aware people in or around #Prague . The first #Privacy Coffee/Beer/Juice meeting in scheduled.

PRivacy Coffee PRague #1 · Luma
A meeting for (digital) privacy aware people who would love to discover some common topics, exchange ideas and approaches and maybe have some drinks…

So now that Meet.Coop isn't working (they shut down the @… instance and don't seem to be able to bring it back) wondering if anyone knows of another #privacy or #cooperative

Anyone know anything about solidagent.io?
They appear to be an EU hosted AI agent - in the sense that they have the trained models on their own platforms, rather than using an API so presumably queries etc stay on their servers.
Their statements of #privacy etc look good and the test queries I posted (on quite complex #coding problems) were very impressive, but I don't think it's strictly FOSS otherwise.
Would be happy to hear if others have good/bad experience with them as they seem quite new.

Whenever people are worried about criminals using #privacy-oriented software, I'm wondering who do they mean by "criminals"?
Let me point out that in some countries people verbally opposing the authoritarian regime are "criminals", while rapists become presidents. Or people peacefully protesting against genocide are "criminals", while nazis openly calling for violence are model citizens.
So yeah, if I were to develop such software, I'd rather have it used by "criminals". Because, guess what, true criminals will get their hands on that kind of software anyway.

Confronting the Challenges of Sensitive Open Data
When governments collect sensitive data about private individuals, personal privacy and governmental transparency come into conflict. How should we resolve this tension?

How You're Being Manipulated
#NowWatching #Privacy

Weekend project: set up an IP cam server with Frigate on a Raspberry Pi I had lying around at my parents' house.
I'm worried about those old bastards, but I'm also worried that the stream from those cameras will end up on some hidden Internet forums.
I'm not interested in using the "cloud services" so kindly offered to me by big companies.

#Privacy (or lack thereof): #Lyft has added a setting in the app that allows them to monetise your data for targeted ads. It is *on* by default and has to be turned off manually.

You know our future is definitely a dystopian surveillance nightmare when the government acts like you're a criminal for wanting a level of privacy that was considered normal just 10 years ago.

TikTok Is Now Collecting Even More Data About Its Users. Here Are the 3 Biggest Changes
According to its new privacy policy, TikTok now collects more data on its users, including their precise location, after majority ownership officially switched to a group based in the US.

Figured out a cheap trick to blur a smartphone's camera:
1. Cut a piece of transparent adhesive tape.
2. Sandpaper it.
3. Attach on top of the camera.
Wanted to blur instead of covering the camera, because the phone interprets full cover as darkness and dims the screen.
