Rikspolischef Petra Lundh:
"Tidigare så har jag absolut tyckt att det är bra med offentlighetprincipen och annat ... ".
Citatet från den f.d. domaren och riksåklagaren är autentiskt om än avhugget. Det handlar om huruvida förundersökningar ska bli offentlig handling.
Ska ganskande journalister behöva förlita sig på godtyckliga läckor istället?
Nej, i kampen mot de kriminella gängen går vi alldeles för långt i att montera ned rättssäkerhet och medborgerliga rättigheter. Bevara demokratin!
Look, I'm famous! Mentioned in this great #FOSDEM talk by @dos https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-3200-universal-serial-bug-a-tale-of-spontaneous-modem-resets/ (at 15:40 into that) where he mentions me and says "...one vital observation... " - I made a vital observation! 🎉 Proudly adding this to my list of things to brag about.
Much of my life may have been pointless but not all of it: let it be known that I did spend a significant amount of time with trial-and-error to find the exact time delay needed for the USB connection to the #Librem5 modem to break down. 😄

google rant:
a little website i shepherd for a friend has a contact form. it uses php mail() via sendmail. ive done all the things: fail2ban, recaptcha, spf, dkim, reject dmarc policy; the config is just as tight as my personal mail server, and few to no illegitimate form submissions ever make it as far as the mta.
gmail happily sends a daily dmarc report congratulating me for successful spf and dkim tests, yet refuses to deliver any messages to a gmail inbox. at the same time, the target gmail inbox is stacked full of spam, all from gmail.com addresses.
google is a bully and a tyrant and hostile to the open internet. msft does the same shit.

This cornerstone of software freedom has been empowering developers and users for decades.
Consider gifting your copyright to the FSF to uphold the GPL's legacy and keep software libre!

I just renewed my annual @fsf associate membership and psyched for Libreplanet. #ISupportFreeSoftware
Interesting discussion with @Mer__edith and Camille Francois, "AI and Surveillance Capitalism", available via #PeerTube here: https://digitalcourage.video/w/3UJQ4XPwjWpenWM5iUmmQs
I think the most important aspect they bring up is how increased use of so-called "AI" systems (it's wrong to call such systems "intelligent") leads to really dangerous concentration of power to a small number of huge companies. That development is very dangerous and bad for democracy, it's really the opposite of what we need.

I finally deleted my Google account today and didn't instantly die. Perhaps this will be easier than I thought?
