@Tutanota It is truly commendable that you have taken so much effort to support #FOSS. It is quite ironic that a lot of 'secure service providers' essentially prevent audiences that are serious about privacy and security from using it. Well done, team! ๐
P.S. Your CAPTCHA doesn't always work properly. Please continue developing it and 'ironing' out the bugs.
Are you interested in Linux and FOSS? Do you want to know about digital privacy and other tech developments? Follow me. ๐ #foss #privacy #privacy4everyone #linux
@purism That's pretty cool! ๐
@aeveltstra @Tutanota That's more difficult than you think. Some of the most prominent names in the privacy sector are based in or funded by companies in the USA. (Eg: Signal, TOR, Wickr, DuckDuckGo, etc....)
@Tutanota I would love to come but I am not in Germany. Are you going to live stream the lecture?
@protonvpn That's great! I've been waiting for this. Well done! ๐ ๐ However, I agree with the others. You aren't the first to do this.
@Tutanota Which distribution do you mainly use?
@resist1984 @jonas @wuwei Please remember that not everyone is talented or even interested in everything. There are some people who can swim very well while there are others who are learning to swim or even afraid of water. That does not imply that they are 'mentally challenged', though. That is why, for the good of everyone, we need to recommend something that anyone can use easily. What matters is that they can do what they need to do while also having a certain degree of privacy. Cheers! ๐
@resist1984 @wuwei @jonas DDG is generally received as privacy-friendly. Check PrivacyTools, ThinkPrivacy and the EFF. Furthermore, a lot of users find even DDG not as user-friendly as they would like. It would be a nightmare to convince them to use Searxes. ๐
@Tutanota I am just curious. What OS do you run on those computers? ๐ค
#Linux and #FOSS are truly amazing. It just goes to show the power of a dedicated and passionate community. However, everything has its issues and we tend to lose sight of that in our propaganda. This video highlights why it is necessary to provide a 'true and fair view' on Linux when encouraging newcomers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rb46F24HJM4.
@LPS This could be a breach of the terms of use depending on the seller or the platform. However, this article was quite informative and highlights how the lack of privacy affects our 'real' life. Well done, @protonvpn !
@e_mydata ๐ Cool! I hope more mid-range phones are supported, though.
@omgubuntu It is quite true. However, developers tend to find it difficult to build products for multiple platforms. This problem will hopefully be eradicated with the steady rise of Snaps and Flatpaks. The Linux community presents a place for technical innovation. It may not become the standard but I believe more people should soon consider it as a viable alternative.
@protonvpn Using a 'dumb' TV doesn't necessarily guarantee privacy and security. If you use IPTV via set-top boxes, you are still being tracked. Be smart about what you use and consider its implications.
@Tutanota @openstreetmap Cool! A nice feature. ๐
@Tutanota Please consider integrating with Mycroft AI: https://mycroft.ai/. Since Tutanota has no support for IMAP, the skill for emails isn't compatible with it. It would also be a great way to support #foss . ๐
The #blockchain is an impressive new technology that was created to support the functioning of cryptocurrencies. It is simply a large, public and distributed 'database' that uses cryptography. It is this feature of a blockchain that makes cryptocurrency 'secure by design'. Most of us in the #FOSS world are already taking steps to secure our digital life. Perhaps, we should take an effort to protect our financial activities as well and #cryptocurrency may be our shot at this.
