Science needs to be ready for the censorship and chilling of scholarly research. That means a global rejection of large intermediaries getting between researchers and the public. #OAWeek https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/10/science-must-decentralize
Today i took part of #linuxday2025 in Palermo,
I talked about the risks for Android ROMs related to AOSP and how #LinuxMobile and @postmarketOS might be a way forward, together with our communities.
Shout out to @thefreecircle for the great organization and the ambitious and very lively event!
The UN Cybercrime Treaty is fundamentally flawed and threatens human rights worldwide. UN Member States must not legitimize these dangers by signing when the Convention opens for signatures this weekend. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/10/joint-statement-un-cybercrime-convention-eff-and-global-partners-urge-governments

We apologize for the long performance degradation today.
Finally, we identified all of the 'tricks' that AI crawlers found today. They no longer bypass the anubis proof of work challenges.
A novelty for us was that AI crawlers seem to not only crawl URLs that are actually presented to them by our frontend, but they converted the URLs into a format that bypassed our filter rules.

Publishers need to learn that when they don't work with researchers to do the right thing, scholars find their own solutions—legal or otherwise. #OAWeek https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/10/civil-disobedience-copyright-keeps-science-going

Good morning Fedi friends!
The results of yesterday's poll are in: 53% of you voted for #NextCloud – as in: the software I should showcase in my #YunoHost / #selfhosting for newbies step-by-step guide.
I've been self-hosting NextCloud for 4 months now and it has become absolutely essential to me, replacing Dropbox, Google Docs, Google Drive and WeTransfer. But it has so many more capabilities too!
I'm excited to do a show & tell.
Yay for #DigitalSovereignty and independence from #BigTech ✊
We’re better than fear.
We’re braver than billionaires.
We’re bigger than ever.
And we’re gonna win. #NoKings
