If our #privacy is only worth that much, then why can't we pay to keep it?
I'd gladly pay more than $70 a year in a heartbeat to use all of the popular platforms with guarantees of 100% privacy.
We need someone to do for privacy what #Spotify did for music. Charge users and then broker deals to pay part of it to the platforms in exchange to them agreeing to stringent privacy standards on that account, such as collecting zero data, no ads/analytics etc.
Take my money... Please.

Youtube is going to start putting advertisements on more videos, including those that cannot be monetized by the uploader.
YT was never in our best interest, but even less so now.
Sadly it turned out that the version of #HomeAssistant in #Yunohost doesn't have the supervisor and thus is a bit useless for me.
On a more positive note, Yunohost 4 rocks (love the new internal debugging stuff and faster PHP) as does the latest version of HomeAssistant (now on a separate #RaspberryPi ).

Me: I need some weird ass video about eating udon noodles with a repetitive chorus about aforementioned noodles, preferably with some Japanese lady in an ufon noodle costume and an 80s vibe...

Just a friendly reminder that in response to criticism about their frequent outages, #github deicded to hide the timeline view on their status page. That's the kind of "transparency" you are supporting when pushing your open code to their closed servers.

A free as in freedom decentralized video sharing and soon possibly even streaming platform.

It includes all the things one needs to ditch Youtube!

Anybody see @channel4news #DeterringDemocracy reports this week? We're still reeling. The team obtained the database used by Trump’s digital campaign team in 2016 containing the 'profiles' of 200 million Americans, built in part by #CambridgeAnalytica.

Finally some positive news out of the White House.
Holy crap.
#Trump has confirmed that he has covid (no I'm not joking or making this up).
With any luck, he'll take his own advice with the bleach...
Now with 30% extra murder hornets at no extra cost! 🈹👍🌋🎂🎉🎊
It took #WeirdAl to finally make a version of the #PresidentialDebate that made more sense than the original...
