lighting bonfires
"[...] Cause the technology is just gonna get better and better. And it’s gonna get easier and easier… and more and more convenient and more and more pleasurable… to sit alone with images on a screen… given to us by people who do not love us but want our money. And that’s fine in low doses, but if it’s the basic main staple of your diet, you’re gonna die.”

MLS over ActivityPub Draft
Good news in privacy for ActivityPub. The first early draft of the MLS over ActivityPub specification went out this week. It’s been part of my work on our E2EE for ActivityPub project at the Social Web Foundation.
Messaging Layer Security (MLS) is an IETF standard for end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) messaging. It lets people on laptops and phones communicate with each other in a secure way that no one in between can see.
MLS is designed to use pluggable lower-level protocols. This specification defines an envelope format for distributing MLS messages through the network, and an Activity Streams 2.0 profile for the packets of application data stored inside the messages.
This specification is ready for review from both ActivityPub developers and security analysts. It’s time to start making proof-of-concept implementations and testing interoperability.
The best place to make comments or report problems is on the ActivityPub E2EE GitHub repo issues list. I’m looking forward to these next steps!
@dajb@social.coop that's my current list (mostly flipboard accounts)
I've posted my seminar on 'The role of the university is to resist AI', which takes as its text Ivan Illich's 'Tools for Conviviality'. https://danmcquillan.org/cpct_seminar.html
📢 WE. CANNOT. SUCCEED. WITHOUT. JOY.
📣 Kicking off a week of exciting news from Bonfire by bridging online and offline worlds:
✊️ Join us May 9th at Làbas - a self-managed social municipality in Bologna, Italy where we're facilitating a collaborative Bonfire workshop with #municipiozero and scift.
Together, we'll install a Bonfire instance and collectively configure extensions, community guidelines, and settings tailored to their specific needs 💅
