This is totally misguided... Let's hope no one will succeed passing such dangerously stupid bills.

Some relationships here are definitely shady. Be careful who you trust with your traffic.

Interesting idea, trying to bridge the best of both UUID options.

Indeed, you can't trust claims of the big cloud players. If asked by they will hand out your data, wherever it is hosted.

Early days for that service. Let's hope it improves infrastructure wise.

Interesting initiative to have DNS servers compliant with GDPR, respecting your privacy and with the filtering you need. Now the real question is how long it'll live by its mission.

Or why CAPTCHA might become something of the past. I guess they'll live a bit longer as they become more and more privacy invasive.

Nice new tool from the Tor project. Looks like it'll make it really easy to push traffic to Tor from the command line.

Clearly there is too much telemetry in most browsers by default and it's worsening. There are a couple of exceptions though.

This also carries privacy concerns indeed even for local models. It all depends how it's inserted in the system.

I have a hard time seeing browser makers truly drop third party cookies without pushing a worse replacement first... Still, it's nice to see the W3C take a stand in the matter.

Reminder of why privacy matter and why we shouldn't collectively give in to the data vultures.

Now is the time to wake up and get those surveillance devices out of people's homes...

The writing was on the wall. This is an unsurprising development but Edge users should know where it's going...

They really never learn... Whatever the country politician try to blindly fight against cryptography again and again. Let's hope this one is stopped.

Maybe it'll at least be a wake up call for governments and businesses to let go of their US cloud addiction. There are reasons why you don't want such vendor lock-in. The political drama unfolding in the United States makes obvious why you should think carefully at how dependent you are from your service and infrastructure providers.

That's a lot of stalkerware in the wild. And this exploit is only about two such apps. What's wrong with people that they install this kind of crap on their loved ones smarphones?

Some powerful bullies want to make the life of editors impossible. Looks like the foundation has the right tools in store to protect those contributors.

The wonderful world of personalised pricing in the age of widespread surveillance... Also becoming personalised wage fixing in the case of gig workers. Shameful.

Definitely this. Sure we should seek for decentralization, but this is not going to happen or be effective without regulation. Ensuring privacy is a legislative and political problem as much as a technical one.
