Hi, everyone. My name is Jean. Looking to connect with people here! I will follow you back! :D

Recently finished a PhD in cybersecurity, but quit academia right away. I just can't work there lol. I work in data by day, but Im a fulltime human rights activist and have spoken at various fora against digital dictatorship and BigTech's regulatory capture. I am a socialist and I have been for awhile now. I am working closely with various grassroot movement particularly within the digital rights/labour space.

I am into FLOSS, #privacy and #humanrights. I have foul mouth and I own it. Outside of my activism, I enjoy walking my dog, Heidi, #vegan food, gaming, programming #python, #dadjokes and makeup.

I've been looking at @Seirdy's /meta/ page and it was so cool I was inspired to follow suite.

In fact, I realized I love reading about people talking about their personal sites themselves and wished more people do it, so I made a post about it which lists some other examples I've found:

"Add a Meta page to your personal website"

personal sites are really cool, would love to see more meta pages out there -- #BoostsWelcome


Any experienced C developers among my followers? #BoostsWelcome.

Expat, arguably the world's most popular #XML parser, is understaffed and without funding. As #xz has shown, situations like this are dangerous.

Last month, maintainer Sebastian Pipping put up a plea for help at github.com/libexpat/libexpat/b…

(I would help myself, but my C skills barely surpass "Hello, World".)

I think the #xz incident is teaching us that our infrastructure is dangerously fragile in the face of well-organized/funded attackers. The response isn’t “try harder” or “donate to your OSS project”, it needs to be institutional, professional, and at scale.

So, here’s my proposal, called “OSQI”, aimed at starting a how-to discussion: tbray.org/ongoing/When/202x/20…



:fdroid: After several months of hard work, it's a good feeling to be able to say our @fdroidorg board of directors is officially chartered and running, and finally with an official legal entity through Dutch stichting (foundation) Commons Conservancy.

💚 Very humbled to be able to serve in this inaugural group of talented volunteers, and even more excited about helping #FDroid into the future.
