πŸ”” Dopo le prime notizie ed indiscrezioni su Telegram e l'integrazione dell'AI di Musk abbiamo pensato ai nostri utenti che vogliono godere della privacy assoluta.
Abbiamo rilasciato l'applicazione di messaggistica Session sui nostri mirror.
Session usa una crittografia end-to-end e sfrutta un protocollo di rete decentralizzato sulla base di onion routing per l'invio e la ricezione dei messaggi. Maggiori info al link:

:mastodon: Mastodon updates its Terms to prohibit AI Model Training.

β€œWe explicitly prohibit the scraping of user data for unauthorized purposes, e.g. archival or LargeLanguageModel [LLM] training. We want to make it clear that training LLMs on the data of Mastodon users on our instances is not permitted,” Mastodon said in an email sent to users.

mastodon.social/terms-of-servi

#mastodon #termsofservice #ai #llm #training #it #security #privacy #engineer #media #tech #news

The new terms, which will be applicable to the social network starting July 1, have legal language that prohibits any data extraction and development of an automated system.

β€œUse, launch, develop, or distribute any automated system, including without limitation, any spider, robot, cheat utility, scraper, offline reader, or any data mining or similar data gathering extraction tools to access the Instance, except in each case as may be the result of standard search engine or Internet browser and local caching or for human review and interaction with Content on the Instance,” the terms note.

‼️It’s important to note that these terms apply only to Mastodon.social server, which is only one of the instances on the fediverse, a distributed network. This means scrapers could still extract data from other servers and use that to train AI models if they don’t explicitly bar that in their terms of service.‼️

Other platforms, including OpenAI, Reddit and The Browser Company, have added similar clauses to their rules to prevent other companies from training models.

πŸ‘ΎApart from this change, Mastodon is also enforcing a new age limit of 16 for users. The social network had an age limit of 13 for users in the U.S., but it is changing the age limit globally.πŸ‘Ύ

If devices powered by Big Tech came with warning labels, would we pause before unlocking them?
What we call convenience is often engineered dependency.
Addiction. Manipulation. Data extraction. All embedded in the products and platforms we use.

We’ve been here before. Just not with our "smart" devices.

I wrote a piece exploring why Big Tech might be the Big Tobacco of our era and why it’s time we taking action against the harm.

@redflegias @ufficiozero fieri di avere persone in @BoostMediaAPS che vogliano contribuire nel loro piccolo, come soci, con varie mansioni e che vogliano sporcarsi un po le mani mettendoci la faccia!

Il tempo di lamentarsi Γ¨ finito, E' tempo di costruire tutti insieme qualcosa per l'Italia tutta!

Researchers recently caught #Meta using an egregious new #tracking technique to spy on you. ... Meta seems to have stopped for now ... a few steps you can take to protect yourself ... Choose a browser with better default privacy protections than Chrome. For ex, #Brave and #DuckDuckGo ... #Firefox only ... with β€œEnhanced Tracking Protection” set to β€œStrict.” ... Unfortunately, the most popular browser, #Google #Chrome, is also the worst for your #privacy.

How sovereign do you want to be?

That’s the question asked in this recent article berthub.eu/articles/posts/en-i

Too often, so-called β€œsovereign clouds” are little more than Big Tech repackaged. Real sovereignty is about control, jurisdiction, and privacy by designβ€”not marketing fluff.

The good news? Europe is full of remarkable privacy-first companies, they just need demand.

Choose privacy-first, European alternatives. Let’s grow the demand that will grow the ecosystem.

#AppealsCourt Sidesteps The Big Questions on #Geofence #Warrants
The practical outcome of this sentence is clear: the evidence collected from a #geofencewarrant issued to Google can be used against the defendant in this case. But that is largely where the clarity ends.
As a result, the new opinion in Chatrie is a missed opportunity for the Fourth Circuit to join both other appellate courts to have considered the issue in finding geofence warrants unconstitutional
