Tell me, when you need a photo for a document, aren't you worried that the photographer is using commercial software that will upload it somewhere, and that it will be used to train models?
I suspect the office issuing the documents isn't any better.

I recently learned about a new way to leak your #privacy, and it’s a scary one. Before going further, know that I’m not a network engineer: perhaps if you work in this field, you’ve known it for your whole career, but it’s quite new to me. Let me share my findings, and you can judge for yourself.

Watching the second to last season of SVU (wifey loves it) and the cops just got info from being in a Discord server. Realistic. The FBI are all over Discord too. Always keep that in mind. Say nothing sensitive there. Discord servers are NOT secure, the authorities can always easily get in, and they often do.

Scant de EU straks jouw berichten?

I welcome comments elaborating on why you said "yes", "maybe" or "no" .

I’ve been checking out the secureblue project recently, and it’s actually pretty interesting.
I’ll admit, online privacy feels like a straight-up meme in today’s world of surveillance capitalism, but secureblue is pushing out some genuinely unique projects that are absolutely worth looking into.
From what I can tell, secureblue feels a lot like the desktop version of GrapheneOS, taking that same security-focused foundation and bringing it into the Linux desktop space in a meaningful way.
