new in-depth analysis of #GoogleApple #ContactTracing apps: "[The #Google part]... seems to call home every ~20 minutes and shares the handset IMEI, SIM serial, phone number, email address and WiFi MAC address and lots of still-to-be-decoded data with Google. (Presumably more detailed app telemetry.)" https://www.scss.tcd.ie/Doug.Leith/pubs/contact_tracing_app_traffic.pdf

What is the new one?
@chutten the cake is a lie
@write_as using Tor Browser 9.5.2 on Android, and after clicking through a few blogs listed on https://read.write.as/ I'm not seeing the badge or a transition/popup/anything to encourage going to a .onion ... Is this active? Maybe an issue with the Android Tor Browser?

Not only will the ".onion available" badge show up in the web app — all blogs hosted on the Write.as domain will automatically show it, too. That means any blog visitors can easily discover your onionized blog!

Why do the cookie popups start with "We value your privacy", clearly they don't because they would've just not included the crap.
@torproject no autoredirect to a .onion address for the blog? Was hoping to see a Tor browser 9.5 feature in action...

Facebook shouldn't give politicians more power than ordinary users. Creating exemptions from the rules for people who are already powerful is simply a practical concession, one that will continue to harm the least powerful people in society. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2019/10/facebook-shouldnt-give-politicians-more-power-ordinary-users

Announcement time:
We now have our own Matrix homeserver, and it is running on #RockPro64 hardware just like the rest of our online infrastructure! All our discussion/support channels have been moved to it as their main address.
Did I also mention it's open for user registration? 😊
