Just wait until #Twitter has an outage, or does something new monumentally stupid, or begins to move towards bankruptcy or selling to someone else.

We need a server infrastructure discussion *NOW* on preparing across the Mastodon network of instances.

Helping activists, dissidents & journalists migrate to Mastodon 

Hi everyone,

there are a number of people in this category who want to migrate to Mastodon and have questions about safety, security, etc. Are there any resources that you recommend?

Was interessiert mich mein Gerede von Gestern?

Würde Friedrich #Merz zu seinen Worten stehen, müssten die gesamte Fraktion der #CDU #Thüringen aus der #CDU fliegen.

Alarmierend ist, dass es die selbe Fraktion ist, die Kemmerich zum MP wählte.

"Are we in the end times or will humanity avert a mass extinction?"

I am starting to look forward to the nuclear holocaust happening and getting it all over with. The stupidity no longer makes me angry. I am just kind of bored and disgusted by the whole thing.

@potemkinvillage Really enjoyed Maria Ressa's presentation and I think she clearly presents the challenges and how to counter many of them.

The departure of Twitter's Chiefs of Privacy and Infosec, along with Elon's offer to grant full firehose access to investors holding more than $250Million, is a recipe for abuse by nation states eager to exploit Twitter's user data to arrest or kill dissidents. #StopToxicTwitter

Social media #algorithms magnify societal biases.

Here's a striking example. Enigma is an #infosec conference that works hard at gender diversity. Yet the most viewed talks are almost all by (white) men. youtube.com/c/USENIXEnigmaConf (switch to the "popular" tab).

If users are 5% more likely to click on thumbnails conforming to the stereotype of an infosec expert, the algorithm will reflect that in its recommendations, and also *compound* that bias over time.

This needs to be better known.
