This is serious. It's not just informants. It's personal information of parties. All kinds of non-public information.

I’ve been on Fedi for a year now and have fallen in love with the platform, so here’s my introduction! I studied computer science with a focus on RTOS and FP/PL, but I’m about to start my final semester of law school. I’ll be practicing at a boutique firm that primarily handles IP cases once I’m barred. I foilboard and I play way too many rhythm games in and out of the arcade.
I contribute to open source projects where I can, and I write up my experience in my digital garden which I’ve been maintaining for over a year now. It’s also a good place to find usage tips for projects/tools that you might want to use.
My passion for tech also includes privacy, and I’m an advocate for minimizing your digital footprint. GenAI is a scam and its purveyors are causing real harm while they sell it as hard as they can.

Tip You will own nothing, and you will be happy. On my little corner of the internet, I document my adventures in tech and complain about the internet of shit.be-far.com
I genuinely don't have to wait for a Trump presidency for the ruination of the "rules-based order". Biden is doing fine in his own.

New blogpost: An introduction to 'ethical licensing'
Technology ... has always been political. I’ve very little time for discussions which try to separate “tech” and “politics”.The same is true with licensing models.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve seen more people talking about “ethical licensing”. And, while I’ve yet to see an “ethical licence” come up in the course of my work, I thought it might be an interesting topic for a blog post.
Hey #lawfedi friends, every day a new person in #law or #legal adjacent fields joints the #fediverse and isn't aware of Lawstodon - the legal community directory for #Mastodon (and eventually the fediverse more broadly).
Feel free to add yourself, claim your profile, etc. I have been using it when I send recommendations for folks looking for practitioners in specific practice areas and it works a treat!

The 5th Circuit put out the mifepristone ruling and I cannot even imagine how this is supposed to be the law of standing.
Giving up Twitter, and the impact on my business.
A rather long-winded, rambling #BlogPost, in which I try to jot down some of my thoughts about the impact of my choice to leave Twitter, and to spend more time in the fediverse, from the point of view of getting new clients (I'm a solicitor).
For me, so far, the fediverse is definitely on par with Twitter from this point of view.
