Thanks to the magic of the Streisand effect, I just heard about #CarelessPeople - a book by former Meta employee Sarah Wynn-Williams.
Apparently the company is FREAKING OUT and seeking legal ways to stop its promotion. I can see why. This article about it in the Times made my jaw drop: nytimes.com/2025/03/10/books/r…
I will definitely order it at my local bookshop.

Book Review: ‘Careless People,’ by Sarah Wynn-Williams
“Careless People,” a memoir by a former Facebook executive, portrays feckless company leaders cozying up to authoritarian regimes.Jennifer Szalai (The New York Times)
reshared this
An update: last night I started reading #CarelessPeople and I cannot emphasize enough HOW GOOD it is. A real page-turner.
No wonder #Meta executives are trying to shut down its promotional tour. They come across as shallow, greedy and irresponsible.
The author wrote in the prelude that working there was "like watching a bunch of fourteen-year-olds who’ve been given superpowers and an ungodly amount of money, as they jet around the world to figure out what power has bought and brought them." 🔥
Update no. 2:
Yesterday my 4-year-old woke up at 7am thus thwarting my plans to read #CarelessPeople for a good hour.
So today I woke up at 6am to resume reading the book. It’s THAT GOOD.
The leaders at #Meta have been shockingly irresponsible in their decisions since the early days. All they care about? Gathering data and influence and making big bucks. I’m so glad I got out of all their platforms and I’m on the #Fediverse instead.
History books won’t be kind to Zuck, Sandberg et al.
What an idiot.

Make the Investigatory Powers Tribunal on Apple Encryption a Public Hearing
Rights groups call for Apple’s closed appeal against the Home Office’s encryption-breaching order to be opened to the public.Open Rights Group
The “case implicates the privacy rights of millions of British citizens who use Apple’s technology, as well as Apple’s international users.”
“End-to-end encryption cannot be broken in a targeted manner – once a ‘backdoor’ into the system has been created, it can be exploited by anyone, putting the privacy and security of all users at risk.”
With such high stakes, we demand to know what could possibly justify it.

📣 Make your voice heard through the secrecy!
By ordering Apple to break encryption, the UK government has put millions at a higher risk of their personal data, documents and photos falling into the hands of criminals and predators.
The secret tribunal is taking place this Friday – we need to take a stand for encryption!

Bone fragments unearthed at an ancient cave in Spain belong to the oldest known human face in western Europe, researchers say.
The fossilised remains make up the left cheek and upper jaw of an adult member of an extinct human species who lived and died on the Iberian peninsula between 1.1m and 1.4m years ago.

Women are on the frontlines of environmental and social justice—leading movements, defending land and water, and fighting for their communities. Yet, they are among the first to suffer the consequences of climate chaos, war, and economic injustice.
While we celebrate progress and call to accelerate action, we must recognise the struggle. Women’s leadership in the fight for a just and liveable world must be supported and protected.

Washington Blues: A Government Town Faces a Gloomy Future

Signal no longer cooperating with Ukraine on Russian cyberthreats, official says
The encrypted messaging app Signal has stopped responding to requests from Ukrainian law enforcement regarding Russian cyberthreats, a Ukrainian official claimed, warning that the shift is aiding Moscow’s intelligence efforts.therecord.media
The mobile signal client is not free software - you cannot compile a working binary without authentication keys that the signal developers refuse to provide to f-droid for example.
It's only if you customize the server and client to no longer be signal, that you can actually compile it and it'll work, but you may as well use better chat software at that stage.
There is also a (somewhat broken) CLI library, but you can't use it without passing a "captcha" that requires a phone number and running proprietary JavaScript, so that's clearly not free either.
Thanks for the information. I suspected the fediverse is the best way to go. I anxiously await Pixilfed.
Good to know. I was under the assumption that Pixelfed was federated and operated on independent servers.

Books! I've got lots of books. Kobo and Kindle should have all of my ebooks.
For paperback, pretty much any place that sells books should be able to get them for you.
There aren't a lot of people named Steve DeGroof in the world, so searching for my name at a book vendor should point you in the right direction.
Or, y'know, google "steve degroof books" if you want.
