@animeirl @tuxcrafting then I am not aware of what encryption scheme they are using :)

@animeirl @tuxcrafting if you base your company on nextcloud in the EU, then you have to be be sure that your coworkers don't store customer information in violation with GDPR - just as a quick example.

@animeirl @tuxcrafting they do state that it is only in the "testing phase", so I don't think it's fair to say that they promise the feature. It is unfortunate marketing speech that can mislead people, and that is generally unacceptable, but not something that breaks trust in the technology amongst tech people, I think.

@animeirl @tuxcrafting that is unfortunately at odds with regulations in many countries where you as a company have to take ownership over the data you host (remember that a big part of nextcloud's users are companies). In that sense I agree that the users of the deployed system doesn't have a proper expectation of privacy, but the users (companies) of the product (nextcloud) can have their privacy. I don't see any solution to this though.

@animeirl @tuxcrafting for which hosting project is this not the case? And how do you propose nextcloud to solve the problem?

@animeirl @tuxcrafting now I have to ask - what part of nextcloud is "unencrypted" in a way that makes a practical difference to privacy?

@animeirl @tuxcrafting I would argue that unencrypted data I have on an inaccessible storage unit is private.

@animeirl @tuxcrafting but security and privacy are two different concepts.

I once had a ship committed to involuntary psychiatric confinement.

It had unresolve anchor management issues.

@abs which device and where are you located?

@jacethechicken you should start to worry when you draw the 21st...

If 20% of a group are harassers (evenly across genders), & the group has more men than women… then each woman gets 16x more bad experiences than each man.

The Petrie Multiplier: in a group where x% are bullies/harassers, the minority will feel it (x/100)^2 more.

This blog post has stuck with me through the years. I like the maths in it, & I like the conclusion that attacking sexism/racism etc doesn't have to be an attack on the majority.

@doctorow pens have notoriously bad ergonomics. Not sure you want to emulate that movement.
