I have spent almost my whole life (and work) with modern technology. Here are my big lessons:

- Use paper ballots for voting
- Pay with cash as often as possible
- Send hand written letters in envelopes
- Keep your landline phone.

Welcome to my TED talk :)

While many people rightly are concerned with the power of companies like Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google, the uproar around Section 230 is misplaced. It’s not 230 that is the problem. It’s oligopoly. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/01/its-not-230-you-hate-its-oligopolies

That's irony at its best: Google is one of the gold sponsors of #FOSDEM, and less than a week before the conference begins, it removes #Element from the Play Store. Element is the most-used application for access to the #Matrix infrastructure that FOSDEM depends on.

RT @element_hq@twitter.com

Google have suspended Element in the Play Store without notifying us; we're reaching out to find out what's going on. Apologies for the inconvenience; in the interim there's https://f-droid.org/en/packages/im.vector.app/ but it's a few versions behind. We'll post updates here.

We live under capitalism, not democracy. The sooner you understand that, far from being complementary, these two ideologies are diametrically opposed, and yes, that this is a zero-sum game, the sooner things start to make sense.

Warum diese reflexhafte Verteidigung? Reminder: Die Abmahnung vom @vzbv@twitter.com hat das Unternehmen u.a. kassiert, weil man sich nicht mal die Mühe gemacht hat die Datenschutzerklärung auf Deutsch anzubieten. Sollen etwa Regel-Ausnahmen für bei Politikern beliebten Apps gelten oder was?
