Google and Apple are playing iSpy with your little phone to see where you have been. If tech companies track you 24-hours a day and sell the data to advertisers, it's legal. If a person did the same thing, it would be called stalking. nrkbeta.no/2020/12/03/my-…
Tonight we will be performing a live install and walkthrough of Pop!_OS and discussing this interesting little OS. Join us from 7:30 on our brand new BigBlueButton instance provided by LinuxUsersVic: meet.glasswings.com.au/b/fsm-iv6-tce-… @linuxusersvic @system76 #pop_os
Remember, the "cloud" (free or paid) is just someone else's computer. The true owner (not you) can take it away at anytime, for any reason without recourse. businessinsider.com.au/google-users-l…
This looks very promising for the future of open hardware and mobile tech in particular. Precursor is not for normal users, but it will help users in the future by creating a community of devs who value freedom. crowdsupply.com/sutajio-kosagi…
Here is an example of why "open-source" licences (APL in this case) neither protects the user's or the developer's freedoms. Using the AGPL would preserve the freedoms of all users and developers if a cloud service provider forks the project.

Exactly, the power imbalance between the watched (i.e. us, the public) and the watchers (big-tech) is overwhelming.
