Right. #InfoSec

@sophia I don't even use an ad-blocker or any security software anymore because the GDPR notices take care of my privacy for me.

It's just so bloody convenient!

@aral If i went through and clicked to opt out of everything, I think with my reading speed and dexterity in my hands using the mouse, I'd spend more time online trying to click and opt out of things than actually looking at websites. That's not choice, it's forcing us into an absurd situation to punish us for wanting privacy.

Hoy a partir de las 21:00 a aprender Onionshare y Nexcloud

ubuntu unity adds a feature that sends your search queries to amazon over https. this feature is enabled by default but can be turned off. RESULT: community-wide outrage, massive backlash, feature is set to opt-in and has since been removed

windows 10 adds ridiculously invasive spying to its operating system, bakes in ads, bundles candy crush, forces restarts for updates, aggressively forces upgrading from windows 7/8/8.1 for an entire year, uses the insider rings to test buggy updates, repeatedly "accidentally" resets the default browser to edge, injects advertisements for edge into the operating system, advertises onedrive from the file manager, forces invasive telemetry on users that can be made less invasive (but never disabled) by upgrading to the more expensive version... RESULT: outrage, backlash, etc. some hold on to 7/8.1 but eventually give in. windows 10 becomes the most popular OS in the world. users accept that this is the way things are now.

Q. What should I use to protect myself from surveillance on a Chromebook?

@aral Debian *really* needs to enable HTTPS repos by default. Enough is enough. #InfoSec
