has confessed and will be prosecuted in Vietnam

They can't prosecute all these free pedophile millionaires (or billionaires), but there are plenty of people to prosecute enthusiasts who share intangible content. What beautiful justice!

FBI should care more about Epstein's friends instead of having fun with digital books

When corporations scrape academic papers, it's justified. When individuals do it, it's inexcusable. in c/[email protected]

Telegram had been handing over user data to authorities since 2018, Durov informs in c/[email protected]

Telegram was built to protect activists and ordinary people from corrupt governments and corporations — we do not allow criminals to abuse our platform or evade justice.

Criminals according to what standard ? In some countries, activism or sympathy with a cause is considered criminal behavior.

Evade justice ?? What justice is he talking about? The justice of the United States of America, Chinese justice, or the justice of the nationalities he possesses?

Better to avoid this platform

In case anyone hasn't seen the hilarious scare screen on one of the seized ZLibrary domains. lol in c/[email protected]

Does Amazon really think anyone out there wants a PC with AI bloatware on it? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Most of people do not know what is a bloatware and do not care, they will simply continue to do what the trend and ads are telling them to do.

So if Amazon (or other GAMAM) wants to create a new need, most of people will follow. And in a fews years people like you (or me !) we will be considered outcasts. 😁

Walk on the Moon (clarifications needed) (simple.m.wikipedia.org)
 

The last humans to step foot on the moon, the crew of Apollo 17, did so in 1972. So far, no one has gone back...

It's been 50 years though.

How do you explain this fact despite the undeniable scientific and technological advances ?

I would like to collect here as many opinions, hypotheses and if possible evidence on this subject as possible.

All opinions (rational or not) are welcome but try to respect those of others. (no judgement) ✌

Do you feel manipulated? By whom (or by what)? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Perhaps by those around you, by your company, by your community, by society, by a government, by your Lemmy instance,... It doesn't matter.

Please describe your experiences below. (no judgment) 😎

SimpleX Chat ! More privacy (I suppose) (simplex.chat)
 

I have found this app pretty well-made and useful. Please give it a try ✌.

Construtive criticism is welcome as usual !

Security assessment was done by Trail of Bits in November 2022.

SimpleX Chat features:

  • end-to-end encrypted messages, with editing, replies and deletion of messages.

  • sending end-to-end encrypted images and files.

  • single-use and long-term user addresses.

  • secret chat groups - only group members know it exists and who is the member.

  • end-to-end encrypted audio and video calls.

  • private instant notifications.

  • portable chat profile - you can transfer your chat contacts and history to another device (terminal or mobile).

SimpleX Chat advantages:

Full privacy of your identity, profile, contacts and metadata: unlike any other existing messaging platform, SimpleX uses no phone numbers or any other identifiers assigned to the users - not even random numbers. This protects the privacy of who you are communicating with, hiding it from SimpleX platform servers and from any observers.

Complete protection against spam and abuse: as you have no identifier on SimpleX platform, you cannot be contacted unless you share a one-time invitation link or an optional temporary user address.

Full ownership, control and security of your data: SimpleX stores all user data on client devices, the messages are only held temporarily on SimpleX relay servers until they are received.

Decentralized network: you can use SimpleX with your own servers and still communicate with people using the servers that are pre-configured in the apps or any other SimpleX servers.

You can connect to anybody you know via link or scan QR code (in the video call or in person) and start sending messages instantly - no emails, phone numbers or passwords needed.

Your profile and contacts are only stored in the app on your device - our servers do not have access to this information.

All messages are end-to-end encrypted using open-source double-ratchet protocol; the messages are routed via our servers using open-source SimpleX Messaging Protocol.
