The first two pigs then fled to the third little pig's house, where the Big Blonde Fascist was unable to get in.

"Please let us in!", they said. "We are fucked! We will pay you anything you ask, just please let us in!"

"Welcome inside", the third little pig said. "You don't need to pay anything. The tools used to build this house are all #FreeSoftware, you can use those tools any time you want."

And they lived happily ever after, all enjoying the same freedom as the third little pig.

Then, one day, came the Big Blonde Fascist.

The Big Blonde Fascist went to the first little pig's house and said: "I don't even need to huff or puff here, I'll just ask Apple to hand over the keys". Apple made a rational business decision and handed over the keys after about two seconds. The first little pig was kicked out.

Then the Big Blonde Fascist went to the second little pig's house and similarly got the keys from Google, so the second little pig was also left without a house.

The third little pig tried another angle: "But when someone else controls your house you are not free, you cannot say and do what you want because they are always watching! Freedom and democratic ideals are important", she said.

The other little pigs were unconvinced: "we don't care about freedom or democratic ideals, the important thing for us is convenience! Besides, Apple and Google are great and they are our friends, they would never betray us."

The third little pig tried to explain: "But you are now owned by those companies, your house should be a place where you can feel safe. How can you feel safe when those companies have full control over your house?", she said.

The other little pigs did not seem to understand: "What do you mean? These are our houses, they are great, and so very convenient!"

Here is the story about the three little pigs and the Big Blonde Fascist.

The first little pig built her house on Apple products.

The second little pig built his house on Google products.

The third little pig built her house on #FreeSoftware and thus ensured she was in control of her own house.

The first two pigs made fun of the third pig: "why do you bother?" they said. "It's so much easier to do like us! It's so quick and so convenient!"

https://samnet.se/

Konferensen arrangeras av de fyra föreningarna DFRI, ISOC-SE, SNUS och Dataskydd.net gemensamt.

SamNet är en fysisk heldagskonferens om #teknik, #internet, #integritet och #decentralisering som är grunden för digitaliseringen av vårt samhälle. SamNet fokuserar på detta från den vanliga samhällsmedborgarens perspektiv, inte från ett kommersiellt eller myndighetsperspektiv.

"Kritiken: Övervaka inte stockholmarna med AI-teknik"

”Det är inte ett sånt samhälle vi vill ha”, säger Svante Linusson (C), kandidat till Europaparlamentet.

To fight this we would need a resurrection of the ideals from the enlightenment; freedom of thought, rational inquiry, individual liberty, freedom of expression, religious tolerance, all that stuff that was once considered the foundation of modern civilization but has now apparently been forgotten. We desperately need people to to start remembering those things and why they are important, otherwise world goes to shit.

Happy new year?

However, recently it occurred to me that arguing in that way probably does not work on most people today, because they actually do not care about free speech either.

So I think that today's lack of understanding of the importance of privacy is just a symptom of a deeper problem: people stopped caring about human rights, including free speech, and then of course privacy is also lost.
