Meta stops former Facebook director from promoting critical memoir
Social media company wins US emergency ruling preventing ex-director from publicising her book.Katie Razzall (BBC News)

> In his ruling, Mr Gowan said Meta would suffer "immediate and irreparable loss" in the absence of a temporary ruling in the case.
He should have let her move fast and break things.

On Ideological Purity
I've written a few words lately about trying to shift away from U.S. tech dominance. I want to buy European/Canadian, support independent software over big tech, and move toward a digital life that aligns with my ethics.Joan Westenberg (westenberg.)
This is one I struggle with deeply. I’ve built a career on Microsoft technologies but I feel the tug to rebuild on open source. As Microsoft digs deeper into AI it becomes ever increasingly at odds with my love of nature conservationist tendencies. Which can be said of anything tech. To say nothing of the issues with US tech and how it is evolving especially under the current administration.
I feel like my entire world has become a moral quandary that I can’t solve.
I'm in the midst of transitioning away from as much big tech as possible; it's definitely possible and not nearly as much of a compromise as it might have been a decade ago.
It isn't just an issue of morality, it's an issue of privacy, and an issue of being able to own your data.
Sure, trying to go 100% cold turkey is daunting, but you don't have to do it all at once. Setting up your own homelab or a hobby server outside the US has never been easier. If you can migrate away from even one big tech online service, you're one step closer.
The best way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time.
Absolutely, I used a lot of open source on Windows for years before I bit the bullet and swapped over to Linux and got rid of MS completely.
You don't have to do it all at once.
There's quite a nice site here: alternativeto.net/ that you can find your normal app, search for alternatives and filter for OS and licence etc.
It's not always complete, but it's a great start.
@chewie Well, my comment is more about career than finding software replacements. It would be a fundamental career shift to move away from Microsoft.
But yes, you are correct about finding replacement apps that are open source. 😀
@rlounsbury
Ah sorry.
Yes, I keep trying.
I mostly work with Windows OSes and Cisco.
Now and again there will be some embedded devices and Linux servers that others are scared to touch that I can play with.
I've tried getting more people at various workplaces to use open source to fix problems, but a lot of people aren't willing to learn, which is annoying as they would have more marketable skills.
Maybe it's because they don't have it as a hobby too 🤷
Your article is an excellent read that personally addresses a few issues I am dealing with. Thanks !
"But the point isn't perfection. The point is intention.
You don’t have to be all or nothing. You don’t have to make every decision a moral battlefield. You don’t have to sever every tie to every compromised system - and you sure as hell don’t have to do it overnight.
You have to engage. You have to stay aware. You have to keep questioning the default."
Researchers are rushing to build AI-powered robots. But will they work?

Lean In, said Sheryl Sandberg – but after this week, can we ever see her or Facebook in the same light again?

After Amazon's news this week,
I feel the need to share this advice from my Privacy Guides article again:
Notify guests if you are
using a smart speaker 🔇
If you are using a smart speaker device in your home such as Amazon's Echo (Alexa), Apple's HomePod (Siri), Google's Nest,
Inform your guests about it when they enter your home ⚠️
These devices have the capacity
to record all conversations, and there has already been instances of accidental privacy invasion reported about this 🔓
Even if you don't mind yourself,
offer your guests to UNPLUG your smart speaker while they are visiting you 🔌

Privacy is Also Protecting the Data of Others
In privacy, we talk a lot about how to protect our own data, but what about our responsibility to protect the data of others? If you care about privacy rights, you must also care for the data of the people around you.www.privacyguides.org
