10 years ago Tor Books dropped DRM on all their ebooks.
Tor's still publishing books without DRM and doing just fine.
@kinetix so it seems, sadly
Tim Hortons app found to have significant privacy violations.
"The app also used location data to infer where users lived, where they worked, and whether they were travelling. It generated an “event” every time users entered or left a Tim Hortons competitor, a major sports venue, or their home or workplace."

Is #duckduckgo your default search engine?
Then, if you use #OpenStreetMap a lot, you might find it interesting thing to know that there are #bangs focused on OSM that you can simply type in your browser's search bar
!osm <something> - search for "something" in OSM.
!osmw <something> - search the OSM wiki (very good results!)
!taginfo <something> check for taginfo data about tagas or key/key-value pair
!otw <something> data mining query with #Overpass
and more!

This is a geofence warrant. In this example, the FBI asked Google for the identifying information of all Android users who might have attended one particular Black Lives Matter protest in Seattle. Google coughed it up.

@ehashman @needle@weirder.earth planet money covered this pretty well, not too long ago: https://www.npr.org/2020/09/11/897692090/how-big-oil-misled-the-public-into-believing-plastic-would-be-recycled
@dos @holypangolin followed! a mastodon link on holypangolin.itch.io would also be handy to know of the fediverse presence (currently just mentions fb and twitter)

Evidence that you are a fictional character: / 1. Regular and implausible outlandish coincidences / 2. Obvious plot holes in the worldbuilding / 3. Unusual gaps in your memory, as if periods of low narrative interest were "timeskipped" / 4. Branded or trademarked items in the environment seem lazy, hastily constructed or self-parodic, such as a social network whose posts are called "toots"
@brennen it's not paranoia if it's true...

@mhoye are you sure? "keeping" implies "was at least once"
@brennen quite some overlap with HAM radio operators
