The new PACT Act still creates a legal regime that rewards censorship at internet users’ expense. eff.org/deeplinks/2021/03/even

I am way too clumsy to have wood floors in my home.

And apparently every person who lived in my home before me was also clumsy.

Maybe it’s not me. Maybe wood is a shit material for flooring.

This is such a shameless piece of self-serving bullshit, it should be comic. But it's not. It's terrifying. It's exactly the kind of "solution" that low-information lawmakers love - something that lets them "get tough on a bad actor" without risking campaign contributions.

Don't be bamboozled. Please. The answer to Facebook will not come from Facebook. You can't fix something from the inside that shouldn't exist in the first place.

A Jehovah’s Witness put a lot of effort into writing my husband a full page letter about Easter. I almost feel bad for them. Time is such a precious gift to waste trying to convince someone of your personal delusion. Religious proselytizing is a mundane hobby.

Zuck's proposal to fix the problem of Facebook, then, is "We should fix Facebook by not changing Facebook at all, and making it illegal to make a service that interoperates with Facebook, starving it of the monopoly rents it uses to evade real regulation."

The rise in anti-Asian hate crimes and discrimination is awful. I donated to anti-racist organizations. I have retweeted. Some of my Asian friends have posted they appreciate it, but have had enough of non-Asian people checking in on them. I don’t know how to help.

Just added 3 new EU alternatives to the US cloud infrastructure companies to eucloud.tech/

Many of these are OpenStack public cloud providers, which is great, but OpenStack still is not something I can recommend unconditionally.

Someone just wrote me a long email saying “software engineer” is a misnomer and that programmers do not deserve the classification because “real” engineers’ work cannot fail as often as software and programmers do not use scientific principles.

How should I respond?

Sometimes the infighting between privacy advocates is more difficult than fighting the surveillance capitalists. Oy…

In case you’re wondering if Google or Facebook, etc., will keep you secure, yes, they will try. In the same way a farmer tries to keep their sheep secure from everything else but their own knife.

Security does not imply safety.

“Wikipedia hosts 1.7 million biographies. Not even 20 % of those are about women. If Wikipedia wants to become the sum of human knowledge, this needs to change. With such a large gender gap, we are far from reaching the goal. International Women’s Day is an important moment to remind ourselves of the gender gap for women and all underrepresented groups and to renew our efforts to close it.”
