Auf die Meldung mehrerer Schwachstellen in einer Wahlkamp-App reagierte die CDU mit Strafantrag. Der CCC wird CDU-Schwachstellen künftig nicht mehr melden.
I created a table comparing the specs of 12 phones that can be bought with Linux preinstalled:
https://amosbbatto.wordpress.com/2020/08/25/comparing-linux-phones/
It is striking the difference between the amount of information that is publicly available for the PinePhone and Librem 5 compared to all the rest of the Linux phones that use Qualcomm Snapdragon and MediaTek Helio processors, which require NDA's to view their datasheets and don't allow the publication of schematics, because they are based on copyrighted reference designs.

We are upstreaming our software development for the wider community. Calls will become a part of the @gnome project. Having a dialer application available shows that mobile is an important use case for GNOME. Read more: https://puri.sm/posts/how-calls-became-a-part-of-gnome/
Buidl Crypto just published an long-form interview with me where I touch on just about every aspect of @purism. It's a great conversation, check it out here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/290Apvlx688VWT4vPqBl6n
Librem 5 (left) vs Canon SX740 HS (right)
Both photos are taken at around 3MP (quarter the resolution L5 actually supports, but for now only from the command line, while I took it using Megapixels). Manually adjusted the raw image from L5 to have similar color balance as Canon's photo.
Today seems like a great day to reshare this video...

Wollte hier endlich mal eine Geschichte raushauen, die ich unter Mitwirkung des SWR recherchiert habe, die aber am Ende nie veröffentlicht wurde.
Es geht um "Deutschlands führenden Vokabeltrainer", Phase6, den über eine Million Personen nutzen, darunter viele Kinder.
Vermutlich über eine Agentur hatte man für Retargeting Pubmatic und Mathtag in die Website eingebunden, die dann die Cookies der Kinder zur Versteigerung von Anzeigen mit 20-30 anderen Anbieter austauschten (Cookie-Matching).
