“The major flaw of Signal for privacy is that it works by using your phone number. This can be problematic if you prefer not to share your phone number for certain communications. If you want to keep your phone number secret, I would recommend using a different messaging app. However, this is the only scenario in which I would recommend something else than Signal.”

Signal is becoming one of the most popular ways for newsrooms to get tips. It's easy enough to set up on your personal device, but having an institutional tip account is another thing entirely.

Here's how to overcome challenges when setting up @signalapp tiplines, based on a recent case study with @publicsource and our @freedomofpress digital security training team's previous experience. https://freedom.press/training/blog/signal-tiplines/

For #BlackCatAppreciationDay I insist that you behold Camilla Magenta, who is the sweetest, silkiest, most kissable cat in the world. She does not one thing all day other than give us love and make us laugh. It's very hard to have a bad day with Camilla around. Go get a black cat today, before they run out!! #CatsOfMastodon

I have a great and mighty bone to pick with the privacy community, but before I do so, would very much like to know if there's literature I'm missing: has someone already written the "reducing entropy is cool, but futile because U NO PRIVACY LAW!?!" post/pamphlet/book yet?

70% of people who receive food assistance are working FULL-TIME on a weekly basis.

CEOs are getting away with paying poverty wages to finance their yachts and mansions while families struggle to put food on the table.

Every job should pay enough to make ends meet.

Here's a question for internet sleuths/Uruguay religion experts:

What is the source for 2021 data here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Uruguay ?
The most recent source cited is 2019 & the Spanish version of this page lacks any 2021 data references.

For anyone curious why I'm trying to make sense of a flawed Wikipedia page, religious trends in Uruguay are inconsistent across other surveys. If there's a high-quality 2021 survey with these #s, it could help confirm the actual change over time.

ok so @ingalls convinced me I needed a weather radio

and I have had a credit at REI for like six months

so I got the fancy one with the solar panel and the AM/FM tuner

charged it and set it up in the window

and I have been listening to the sort of hipster bullshit NPR music I enjoy, in a low-carbon manner, all afternoon

while writing letters to various colleagues about inadequate technical documents

neighbors, this is the solarpunk future the fascists warned you about

“The video, aired on MSNBC Wednesday night and shot by filmmaker Christoffer Guldbrandsen, depicts the right-wing lobbyist dictating a fake elector plot in key battleground states. The video was taken on November 5, 2020, two days before the election was called, thus disproving Trump’s main defense that he and his allies genuinely believed they had won the race.”

That was first introduced in Europe by German financial companies like Sofort and was always controversial in infosec community, but the business liked it 🤷EU PSD2 directive civilised it a bit by introducing mandatory B2B APIs for banks to exchange such information, which is how account migration and linking became possible, but I’m sure they have some kind of grace period and not sure if sharing of credentials was outright banned there.

I'm shocked that banking and trading web apps routinely ask for full login credentials to link external accounts. Just like that: "Provide login and password to your bank [recommended]". I'm shocked how widespread this is.

And then we wonder why people get constantly phished on the Internet: because nobody could be expected to see as suspicious something that your *bank* *recommends* you to do.

I'd vote for any politician who will at least talk of making it illegal.
