🔐 Tuta Mail introduces key verification to strengthen end-to-end encryption and defend against MITM attacks 👥
Users can now verify contacts’ public keys via QR code or manual comparison.
If skipped, Tuta defaults to TOFU (Trust On First Use) for seamless encryption 🧩

Privacy Washing is Big Tech's latest strategy to lull you into their sphere.
Don’t fall for Big Techs fake “we care about your privacy” claims.
Privacy Washing:
❌ Destroys trust
❌ Puts your data at risk
❌ Delays real protections

Welcome to the age of "Privacy Washing": Big techs like Google and Microsoft now appear privacy-focused, but this is a facade. What is "Privacy Washing", and why is it happening? We explain below.Tuta
And it will encourage more people to seek out alternatives, including #AutonomiDweb
This can't be censored and is end to end encrypted so you don't need a VPN.
Using dweb you can publish websites to Autonomi and view them in a standard browser. This includes dynamic apps storing and fetching data directly on Autonomi.
This will give vulnerable people, including children access to vital information and safe spaces.

***infosec specialists are needed in the resistance ***
The world needs tech security specialists to run workshops at public libraries for all ages & abilities to remove spyware, AI, reduce surveillance, understand the issues, & for more advanced, move to Linux, degooglefy, etc.
Libraries will pay good wages for these workshops.
If you have these skills, please consider offering them.

"Let’s be crystal clear about what this law actually accomplishes: It makes it harder for adults to access perfectly legal (and often helpful) information and services. It forces people to create detailed trails of their online activity linked to their real identities. It drives users toward less secure platforms and services. It destroys small online communities that can’t afford compliance costs. And it teaches an entire generation that bypassing government surveillance is a basic life skill.
"Meanwhile, the actual harms it purports to address? Those remain entirely unaddressed. Predators will simply move to unregulated platforms, encrypted messaging, or services that don’t comply. Or they’ll just use VPNs. The law creates the illusion of safety while actually making everyone less secure."

The UK Online Safety Act has erected an age wall through the Internet 🚧
UK users are forced to accept censorship or hand over sensitive data to unregulated providers.
The government’s response? You’re a predator 🤨
Enough. Tell your MP to fix it now ⬇️

Spotify users in the UK have to verify their age to listen to Parental Advisory music due to the Online Safety Act.
We're being infantalised for something that's already manageable by parental controls.
It could even end up in accounts being deactivated 🤯

Age verification is creating an information desert.
The Online Safety Act sets every UK user to child as default.
Teenagers? Blocked. Adults? Content denied unless we do age checks with unregulated companies.

So…who hates those Google log-in pop-ups that are seemingly everywhere now? Wanna make them go away?
1. Get uBlock Origin (which you should have already been using):
2. Open the plugin and click the settings button.
3. Click on the “my filters” tab and paste this into the input:
||accounts.google.com/gsi/*$xhr,script,3p
That’s it! Worked flawlessly for me.

Používáte ještě e-mail s PGP?
Osobně mám klíče na YubiKeyu, používám je na Git podpisy a trochu souborů, ale u e-mailu si už nejsem jistý, jestli to vůbec někdo na druhé straně ještě čte/umí.

Privacy is a marathon, not a sprint.
It's common to be overwhelmed by the constant attacks on privacy we read about every day, and to burn out trying to fix every problem all at once.
This is by the attackers' design, of course. Big tech companies and governments want to paralyze you with choices and actions, so you give up on the fight entirely.
It's okay to take a breath, clean up slowly, and train yourself over the long-term to improve your data privacy health over time.

Improving privacy can get overwhelming at first. It's important to move one step at a time, but remain persistent. Good privacy is like good health habits.Privacy Guides
But they only collect data about you to offer you a better service, right?
I've always said that letting companies collect data about you only weakens your bargaining power.
