I hate to glaze but Apple TV genuinely has some of the best content I’ve seen on streaming since the early 2017-2109 days of Netflix.

@waldo.net They should also look at what the PSL is doing and start organizing more events and education series.

Em :official_verified: (@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange) First, they'll ask for your official IDs to confirm your age and identity. This will create a large treasure trove of sensitive data, which will attract criminals, and will inevitably leak from either negligence or malice, sooner than later. Then, they'll claim your official ID is unreliable, because it was stolen so many times, and demand you share your biometric data. They will collect your face scan, your palm scan, and even your iris scan (no exaggeration, these are all already being collected by some companies for identification). They will claim it's super safe. This will create a large treasure trove of sensitive biometric data, which will attract criminals, and will inevitably leak from either negligence or malice, sooner than later. Then what? Rinse and escalate. You will have lost control of not just your corporate social media accounts by participating to this, but to any data capable of validating your identity, to your privacy rights, to the protections you could use online to stay safe. We don't have to wait that it escalates. We can, and must, push back and say No now. Start to say No now. #Privacy #Biometrics #DataMinimization #AgeVerification

@defcon201 there are a lot of folks on Nostr who still want the government out of Bitcoin.

There are of course, bad faith actors who are unfortunately mainstream that do shit like this.

Ah ffs this isn’t who I am. I don’t mean to verbally attack people even if they support Trump. It isn’t the way to reach people. I’ll be better. Mental health just going down the drain.

Andrea Junker :verified: (@Strandjunker@mstdn.social) Everyone knew about Sean β€œDiddy” Combs. Everyone knew about R. Kelly, Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and Jeffrey Epstein. Everyone knew about Donald Trump. I’m so tired of people protecting rich perverts, keeping their dark secrets for decades. So damn tired.

We elected a rich pervert who is very obviously in the Epstein Files.

I’m not a football fan, but I have to hand it to the Super Bowl for its forthcoming role in educating millions of Americans about the fact that Puerto Ricans are, actually, US citizens.

I believe people on #Mastodon should also make accounts on #Nostr. It is clear this administration will try to buy out social media competition, and it is evermore clear they’ll try to silence us.

#Nostr and #Mastodon are great platforms in terms of decentralization and free speech.
