im not a programmer, just a relatively computer competent layman but ill die on the hill that browser and web developers should be shot into the sun regardless of the language for how they've completely destroyed the idea of privacy on the web, the amount of data that browsers give out for seemingly no good reason is crazy from my perspective

when i used to live in a walkable city (university i miss you so much kitty-cri ) i used to go on unhinged rants about how i should have the legal right to pull out a heavy machine gun and eviscerate these "people" revving modified engines in residential areas while walking and talking on the phone lol

DELTA CHAT MENTIONED RAAHHH lets-fucking-go

delta chat advertisementI unironically really love Deltachat, incredibly easy to set up and use to the point i got my 70+ yo grandma to use it and the encyption never breaks like matrix seems to constantly (at least in my experience anyways. it's not perfect if you're a paranoid bastard because it doesnt have PFS but like i said it's so easy to set up and use that i think it's a worthy tradeoff with how easy it is to make throw away accounts, and if you really need PFS there are web apps that you can use to get that

Even Germany won't slam you with a decade-plus sentence and you may even have grounds to seek asylum elsewhere with evidence of persecution if push comes to shove.

they came up with a way to get around this https://hexbear.net/comment/6287311

@yanisvaroufakis

It seems that our rulers, here in the 'liberal' West, have homed in on a new way of turning a person into a non-person. Here is a man, Hüseyin Doğru, a German journalist (of Turkish origins, but not a dual citizen) whom the EU authorities have found a novel, immensely cruel, way of punishing for his coverage of, and views on, Palestine.

The German authorities learned a lesson from my case. Not wishing to be answerable in court for any ban on pro-Palestinian voices (similar to the court case I am dragging them through currently), they found another way: A direct sanction by the EU utilising some hitherto unused directive, one introduced at the beginning of the Ukraine war, that allows Brussels to sanction any citizen of the EU it deems to be working for Russian interests. Clinging to the argument that Hüseyin’s website/podcast used to be shown also on Ruptly (among other platforms), they are using this directive aimed at an ‘anti-Russian asset’ to destroy a journalist who dared oppose the Palestinian genocide.

In practice, this means that Hüseyin’s bank account is frozen; that if you or I were to give him cash to buy groceries or make rent then we would be considered his accomplices and subject to similar sanctions; it also means that if he were a civil servant, he would be fired; if he were a student he would be expelled from his university; if he received a pension it would be suspended; if he received any social benefit it would be frozen. It also, astonishingly, means that he cannot leave Germany! Last, but definitely not least, it means that Hüseyin cannot sue his government for turning him into a non-person but only challenge the European Commission in Brussels – where he is not even allowed to go!

Need I say more? Is it not abundantly clear that we live, today, in a nominally liberal Europe where, in a jiffy, your political and human rights can be rescinded, including your right to challenge your government in a court of law?

man HB is libbing out, this is identical to what any generic democrat would put out and you're getting attacked for pointing that out

before someone comes in and inserts words in my mouth no im not saying he should be putting death to in amerikkka in all caps or something like that but idk, put something that actually sounds like a socialist wrote it, power of the people, the masses, literally anything to separate yourself from a bluemaga dem
