Sell your Tesla, buy an e-bike, or 5 even. I know you didn't know, but now you do. Spring is nearly here, perfect time for two wheels. You can do it! You will thank me later, I promise. #teslatakedown #tesla #boston

As a #privacy advocate, I agree with CNN on this one. Switch to Signal Messenger to keep your private conversations private!

"Signal is one of a number of relatively simple tools that can be used not only to help keep secure conversations with reporters, but also for communicating with colleagues when not discussing work projects, researching legal resources or even chatting with friends."

And "...data #security experts largely agree that Signal is the gold standard."

Also, try using #Tor browser for searching online and be careful about making exact copies or photos of documents, e-mails, etc. "...any documents printed out could include “printer dots,” invisible #tracking codes that can indicate the time, date and location where something was printed."

Thank you Clare Duffy for this much-needed info. And much gratitude to Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) & Eva Galperin for helping us fight for our rights!

Last year, we supported recovery and documentation efforts in post-Hurricane Otis Mexico, through our ProofMode.org project.

Our team member Fabiola reported this: "Documenting the damage to buildings using ProofMode for insurance claims provides additional digital fingerprints and cryptographic signatures for verification of the evidence gathered."

I'm not surprised, but I am horrified. Reading the article made me sick to my stomach.

@tinker @AndresFreundTec repeat after me: open source packages are not my supply chain unless i have a contract with their maintainer

Just had a great podcast with Jutta of Mailvelope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLxZeHXWs_E discussing our work with them to integrate our privacy-preserving measurement toolkit https://cleaninsights.org/impact - we also spoke more broadly about value of PGP email in the era of encrypted messengers, and the necessary, important work to find sustainable paths for free and open-source software projects like Mailvelope. Most importantly, we received an insightful answer for our usual question "What are you drinking?!"

@Griffey I had always hoped to meet him and have a chat. Glad to see this interview, and will now inhabit your virtual video avatar as if I did.

I'm very sad this morning at the news of the passing of Vernor Vinge...his novels are among the very best in sci-fi, and while I don't agree with his views on the concept of the Singularity, he was a thoughtful, careful thinker who more people should read.

I had the great privilege to interview Vernor back in 2011 for the ALA Midwinter conference. https://jasongriffey.net/2011/01/18/my-interview-with-vernor-vinge/ and speak with him several times of the years. He will be missed.
