With Encrypt It Already, we’re pushing on tech companies to deliver stronger privacy protections to their users by enabling and expanding the use of end-to-end encryption across their products or services. https://www.encryptitalready.org

LUKS er tilmed en standard option i de mest lette Linux distributioner ala Ubuntu og Mint.

EU Council Approves New “Chat Control” Mandate Pushing Mass Surveillance

By disguising coercion as consent, the EU’s plan enlists tech companies as willing agents in its quiet expansion of digital surveillance.

Chat Control is back, but slightly changed:

❌ No backdoor of encryption
❌ No forced scanning
🚨 But: Age verification (no anonymity)

The update just quietly passed in the EU Council & now needs to be discussed with the EU Parliament.

👁️Big Techs like #Gmail and #WhatsApp will continue to scan your data.

Will you keep fighting against #ChatControl?

NMR-aktivister dømt for at hænge dukke fra jernbanebro Læs artiklen her: https://redox.dk/nyheder/nmr-aktivister-doemt-for-at-haenge-dukke-fra-jernbanebro/

@GrapheneOS is being threatened by French authorities for refusing to add backdoors and they're dealing with coordinated attacks in French media right now. They're pulling out of France entirely, moving all their servers, and fighting off a wave of bullshit one-sided reporting that makes them look like they're helping criminals.

They need us to fight back. Support them however you can, whether that's a dollar, sharing their story, pushing back on the garbage news coverage when you see it, or just telling someone you know about what's happening. All of it matters because they're drowning in attacks from governments and media and bad actors who want them gone.

This is the only Android OS that actually makes me feel like privacy isn't just marketing. They fight for us now they need us to fight for them.

The EU is pushing Chat Control and creating an environment where governments feel empowered to threaten developers into compliance, and if we stay quiet we're letting it happen. Show up for them in whatever way you're able to.

Mozilla's new strategy document makes it clear: it's an AI company, and the organization you trusted to protect the open web is dead.

@douginamug @jowek @abekonge you can test it via their github. You will have to build it yourself though, and it seems like developer version, not a ready APK or Desktop App, etc.

My guess is that the "launch mid-2025" is delayed. You could contact the email at the bottom of toolkitty.org to ask about it, or even hear if they will supply you with an install file.

Worth noting with Mastodon - one of the reasons for no cookie consent popup is.. there are no tracking cookies. At all.

Similar with official mobile apps, there's no privacy agreements etc in the app stores as there's no third party tracking.

Why is this notable? Try doing the same check on Facebook, X, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky or basically anywhere or anything else online. It's basically unheard of in 2025, as everybody else is selling you.
