I just noticed today that Signal (not talking Molly) is now available on F-Droid via the "Guardian" repository.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

Not European but but i thought some of you may appreciate this

Digitization should serve humanity, not monitor them.

Well, fuck you, Cooler Master.

As soon as I turned my VPN off I was able to successfully send my RMA request.

Down 33%, the total was the first decline since GDPR went into enforcement, largely due to 2023’s record-setting fine versus Meta.

Palms were offline devices that only synced with your computer when put on a docking station.

You could read and reply to emails offline, book or cancel meetings, and sync with your computer later. The latest versions allowed you to snap pictures and listen to your music.

No servers running constantly. No data spilled everywhere. Days worth of battery on a single charge.

The future stole our cables, and it took our attention span and our privacy with it.

OpenAI says that it may store user data related to Operator, its AI agent tool, for up to 90 days — even if users delete that data.

I came across this neat interactive spectrum on privacy. A decent insight into the depths you can go to achieve your privacy goals with examples.

After the original mod being inactive for so long, i've asked the db0 mods for me to take this community. So, welcome back!

Rules

This includes the instance rules of dbzer0, which can be tl;dr'd to: no right wing nutjobs or tankies are allowed. As for the community rules:

1. Be nice
2. No bigotry/prejudice
3. No tankies/right wingers
4. Don't promote proprietary software
5. Stay on topic
6. No crypto
7. Don't be a smartass and try to game the system, we'll know if you're breaking the rules when we see it!
8. If you post news exclusive to a country please name it. (This isn't a bannable rule, but just a recommendation :) )

Why not:

Lemmy.ml

.ml is infamous for banning pretty much anyone they please. This community, while left libertarian, will allow conflicting viewpoints.

Lemmy.world

.world is too big, and has centralized a decentralized community. It simply does not fit, and is a net negative for the fediverse as a whole.

I will be creating a wiki/guide for this community later on, but i'm currently busy.
