The shit I do instead of being a functional member of society, "august why is the screen shaking" you have 3 seconds left to run

Hey, did y'all see this?

I saw this when running newpipe. But wait, it gets deeper. I clicked on the details buttons and it said as of today, we have 83 days left until Google rolls out this new requirement for apps inside and outside of the google play store. If any developer disagrees with their new terms and fees, they will be blocked!

I'll share some of the info below:

Looks like they're trying to nuke the remaining privacy and freedoms we have left on the internet.

What to do?

-Get your developer friends to not comply to their new guides

- Sign the open letter on the site and take action by checking out the full resources list on their website as well!

To summarize, this is all daunting especially when you feel all alone with unfair and inhumane regulations comming out faster than improvements but we got this working together!

Share the link with your friends, family and anyone who will listen!

Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.

If you're in the US, I created a petition to make it easier to contact senators and congressmen.

Google Wants To Control Our Phones

Join 1 people. Google is trying to make people hand over government id in order to make an Android app. If they don't, then that app can't b

If you're not in the US, see if your country is listed here for whom to contact.

The older i get the more i understand why some people become obsessed with privacy, not because they’re hiding something, but because being constantly perceived starts to feel spiritually exhausting.

Did you know that soda machines at restaurants and movie theaters spy on you? That most common new cars now record your sexual preferences and send it to the manufacturer (and also data about anyone who also gets in your car, walks by your car, and maybe happens to be within visual range of your car)? That grocery stores are trying to force customers to download an app to scan barcodes on shelves instead of putting up prices, so the app can scan the phone, decide how much that customer should be squeezed for, and adjust the price? That more and more innocent people are being sent to jail for crimes committed hundreds of miles away because an AI facial recognition algorithm spit their faces out and the cops didn't bother to do the most basic of checks?

I am not uptight about privacy because I'm hiding something. I'm uptight about it because the people who dismiss my right to privacy are dangerous to you and me and our families, personally, all the time.

And often, they are assholes, too.

Proton Mail Helped FBI Unmask Anonymous ‘Stop Cop City’ Protester

A court record reviewed by 404 Media shows privacy-focused email provider Proton Mail handed over payment data related to a Stop Cop City em

"Privacy-focused email provider Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media."

Can we please not do this. The lesson from this is not "so long as your payment can't be traced to you you're fine." The lesson here is that Proton will give the FBI (via the swiss govt or not) whatever info they ask for.

[freedom-to-all]

Can we please not, in fact, give way to fearmongering?

The lesson here is not that Proton will five the FBI via the swiss govt whatever info they ask for. They cannot. Because of the structure of Proton's entire model, they literally cannot read your emails. The very little data they can give about you is merely the payment method that you use. If you don't have one they can't do anything.

I do agree that one should try as much as possible to organise offline but such things are sometimes not possible with a large network of people. Please do not spread misinformation. Proton Mail is still one of the best email alternatives for activists and journalists. But that and the fact that one should never trust it too much or take as much precaution as possible can and should coexist.

Pay with cash when possible. Buy digital vouchers with XMF. Organise offline as much as you can.

[thewayforward]

so, i'm not sure about Swiss law, but at least in the US, the company could have and should have gotten a stay on the warrant and sought a permanent injunction on the warrant. depending on the exact circumstances, this would've allowed them to avoid delivering the customer's information.

a few companies HAVE fought against these kinds of requests.

if switzerland wants to keep its reputation as a privacy-respecting country (and enjoy all the business and revenues that flow therefrom), they really ought to battle for customers a little more.

so, proton's actions were not great, but they weren't entirely flippant either. i'd still like to see more pushback from them against authoritarian intrusions
