Vansinnigt fin morgon vid tjärnet. Började med 5 grader men nu är det varmt. Trög start med fisken mot annars. Dock en fin abborre så här långt.

S dummaste idé hittills: att avlyssna fler barn https://www.aftonbladet.se/ledare/a/Gy04xQ/s-dummaste-ide-hittills-att-avlyssna-fler-barn?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

We have sent emails with a survey to all political parties represented in the Swedish parliament regarding Chat Control, surveillance and privacy.

To uphold a blocking minority of the EU goverments, it is important that a lot of organizations and individuals in EU member states email the parties in their national parliament and demand answers.

We translated our questions to English. Feel free to use them!

Today was "Bundesweiter Warntag" in Germany so a good point in time to test #ModemManager's & #phosh's upcoming #cellbroadcast support 🚨 .

The sounds emitted by #feedbackd are only stubs (and you don' t hear the haptic in the video but I promise it's there 😃).

There's three messages because the CBMs are sent out on three different channels.

Thanks @NGIZero for supporting my work on this!

#LinuxMobile

The @EUCommission has cut important funds for #FreeSoftware in a non-transparent decision.

💥 Raise your voice and take part in an ongoing consultation to ask for sustainable long-term funds for software freedom!

We explain why and how: https://fsfe.org/news/2024/news-20240911-02.html

#curl provides this listing and collection of ALL past security vulnerabilities at https://curl.se/docs/security.html

I claim that curl does this better than, yeah, just about all other projects. Because we put a lot of effort into it. Because we believe our users deserve it.

Are you in Stockholm? Come by at the sec-t community day (September 11th, 2pm) and listen to our talk about how to verify TKey and supply chain security.

dnip, the top Schweizer (Swiss) magazine for tech journalism, published my article about the EU’s proposed chat control regulation in Deutsch (German).

@marcel not only translated, but contributed back to the original English version.

Deutsch is the second most-known language in the EU and one of the 3 official procedural languages. I am still searching for a French publication to do a translation to get all 3.

Like, it bears repeating:

Windows 11, by default, takes regular screenshots of your computer. These are analysed for advertisement purposes, you can be sure of it.

Windows Recall blacks out copyrighted material from those screenshots, but not passwords or other sensitive information, including account numbers, TANs, etc.

This is not an issue for my bank.

Mandating spyware-ladden corporate operating systems should be grounds for getting their banking licence revoked.

Seriously though: I want (okay, demand) a version of Firefox with the "AI chatbot" functionality removed. Not disabled. Removed. I want all code which is specifically designed to connect to OpenAI removed from my computer completely. I do not care if the vampires have promised not to suck my blood. I do not want the vampires in my house in the first place. https://mk.nyaa.place/notes/9xvolkux40ok0n1m
