Au weia, 2026 und es steht schlecht um unsere Grundrechte. Die staatliche Überwachung wurde 20 Jahre lang ausgeweitet und was angeblich nur der Sicherheit dient richtet sich spätestens unter autoritären Regimen gegen politische Gegner*innen, Journalist*innen und Minderheiten.
Angesichts der gegenwärtigen politischen Entwicklungen stellen sich mir die Nackenhaare auf.

JFC, ladies, do not ever do this. It sounds like a masked tool for the Patriarchy/Xian Nationalists to find breeders.
I am not saying it is, but, if I were still pre-menopausal, I would never ever ever ever ever ever want my cycle-related hormonal data out there, just in case. I’ve read Atwood.

I'm afraid it needs to be said again and again and again:
Do NOT use an app to track your menstrual cycle!
Whatever you may think, you have no control over who can access the data.
So unless you don't mind ICE, border control, your employer or basically anyone to know when you're fertile, keep away from them.
In French but in short:
LG, Samsung and Sony connected TV take 172,800 screenshots a day, whatever you're watching: streaming services, tv, game consoles etc.
Everything is sent to the manufacturer for "analysis".
Of course, they never ask your consent.

Don't post pictures and videos of kids on your public profile.
Especially if you don't have autodelete set up.
Did you ask them?
Will they mind later even if they say they don't now - are they capable of understanding what that privacy violation means?
You can be. You can just not do it.

While the #US has become an authoritarian state that tramples on the rights and freedoms of people around the world, EU member states want to grant US authorities direct and far-reaching access to #biometric data stored in European #police databases. 😠

I read the whole notice linked at the bottom, & some other things flagged my attention:
First off, it was submitted & approved "through an emergency clearance, w/ the justification of an unanticipated event..."
Oh I think we should be paying WAYYYYY more attention to that part. That's screams to me that we should be anticipating an "event"...
Just me?
Ok moving on...
CBP will use:
✓ geolocation to confirm the traveler is actually outside the US
2/
There are plans to require applicants of travelers to the US to provide a long list of personal data including:
✓ social media
✓email addresses from the last 10 YEARS
✓ all of this data:
• names
• birth dates
• places of residence
• birthplaces
of
• parents
• spouses
• siblings
• children
So if your close relatives travel, they would have to give up YOUR personal info, including where you live.
But everyone is focusing on the social media part.
Yeah, ok.

Oh yes, and then there is this! 😄

Ahead of today's first #CSARegulation trilogue, @ClaudiaCanelles stresses: "EU Member States have made it very clear: the #CSAM Regulation can only move forward if it protects #minors while maintaining #privacy and #encryption." ⚖️
