Wenn der AfD Verrat an Deutschland vorgeworfen wird, dann macht sie das nicht zu Dissidenten, sondern beruht schlicht auf Fakten. Im Moment wird der Vorwurf wieder laut, da sie per parlamentarischer Anfragen Details über kriegsentscheidende Fähigkeiten der Bundeswehr ausfragt.

🚨🚨Chat Control 2.0 is back. And worse. The new draft quietly brings back message-scanning, even on encrypted chats, bans anonymity, and pushes mandatory age verification. We stand against surveillance laws that break privacy and digital freedom. @fightchatcontrol.bsky.social 👉 fightchatcontrol.eu

Bringing NSO Group out of the cold would signal to the rest of the spyware industry that even the most notorious mercenary spyware company.. ...with a history of harming the US. ...and a mountain of abuses.. Can get a free pass. It would defang US efforts to curb proliferation & bad behavior.

We stand alongside @tuta.com, @proton.me & many others in saying NO to Chat Control. #fightchatcontrol

🚨 The EU’s Chat Control proposal could change online privacy forever and the final vote is almost here. Your messages, your freedom, your privacy, all at risk. Raise your voice now before it’s too late. 👉 fightchatcontrol.eu #stopchatcontrol #euchatcontrol #onlineprivacy #fightchatcontrol

IStories published an excellent investigation: istories.media/en/stories/2... which, along with Michał “Rysiek” Woźniak's technical analysis ( rys.io/en/179.html ) drive the last nail into the coffin of the "secure communication" myth that Telegram has been repeating.

1/ Earlier this month, the Head of the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) for Papua New Guinea threatened DDoSecrets with legal action - "including cooperation with INTERPOL" - if we don't censor the Mineral Resources Authority data. We refuse to comply. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

The 2025 World Press Freedom Index highlights a growing threat: economic pressure is now the leading risk to journalism. We continue to support independent voices with infrastructure that protects privacy and resists censorship. 📖 Read the @rsf.org report: rsf.org/en/rsf-world...

By "free speech," the Americans mean creating a media environment in your country dominated by American digital fascism preparatory to right-wing regime change. Vance essentially said as much in Munich. Give in now, forget about sovereignty later. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

"The first part of controlling the language is inverting the meaning: whatever the government does is good, because by definition then its victims are the 'criminals' and the 'terrorists.' The second part is deterring the press," writes @timothysnyder.bsky.social.

Grateful to have been at #IJF25 together with our friends from @darcdataresearch.bsky.social — days full of powerful conversations, important voices, and shared commitment to press freedom and digital rights. Thank you, Perugia 💙 @journalismfestival.com

From press freedom under attack to the broken metrics of public trust. #IJF25 🗣️ Featuring powerful voices like Maria Ressa, Karen Kaiser, Prof. Julie Posetti, Caoilfhionn Gallagher, Emily Bell, and Jillian Green. @journalismfestival.com

From anti-humanism to the cult-like narratives coming out of tech circles, the panel made a compelling case for why we need to take these voices seriously—and critically. More info here: ➡️https://audible.com/pd/Captured-Audiobook/B0DZJ5W4Y7 #IJF25 @journalismfestival.com

Why is the EU so obsessed with blowing it on end-to-end encryption? therecord.media/european-com...

Sweden has its own back door proposal in addition to EU’s Chat Control 2.0 and Going Dark. Signal’s president Meredith Whittaker is clear as always: if you mandate back doors (i.e., vulnerabilities): no more Signal for you. www.svt.se/nyheter/inri... #Signal #E2EE

New revelations in the Paragon case show that the Italian government began spying on activists and journalists as early as February 2024 using military-grade spyware. This raises serious concerns about privacy and state surveillance. Read more here:👇 mediterranearescue.org/en/news/para...

It's stuff like this that you use to ban Twitter. Not it's content or moderation

1/5. The way Trump, Trump Jr, Tuberville, and Hannity are talking now about Greenland, Mexico, Panama, and Canada plagiarizes Putin in 2013, before the first invasion of Ukraine.

Lots of folks are commenting on the fact that Meta is cozying up to the current administration, cutting out fact checking and other forms of moderation. This stuff is obviously worrying, but my big concern is: what happens when the government asks them to turn off encryption?
