  11. @jabawack81 very interested in this. You got rails running fine on the pi?

    Some of us are leaning into @coopcloud as a FOSS grassroots marketplace that makes for easy deploy on own devices, inc raspberry pi.

    I’ve been curious how rails goes as I’ve not had a chance to test if myself.

  13. Promised an age of superconnectivity, we’ve let our shared physical spaces wither, only to find our promised digital commons to be one large billboard increasingly read and created by bots.

    .. so begins this thought provoking article..
    .. and they go further..

    Every investor presentation of an AI agent “doing the work of ten analysts” is telling you the same thing: the product is labor replacement. The gentler language (”copilot,” “assistant,” “augmentation”) is marketing. The financial model underneath requires the elimination of human cost centers at civilizational scale

  15. Soooo Password Manager tool Bitwarden is enshitifying this week; with potential flow on implications for Vaultwarden (dont stress today, but be ready to stress later).

    blog.ppb1701.com/the-quiet-ren

    Makes for an awkard moment for us at the Digital Justice Society.

    We've recently downgraded our rating of Proton Pass, as month on month we we were finding they had become increasingly spammy in their sign up flows.

    Now our "Best" options for free non-big-tech Password Managers.. are both Enshitifying.

    Bitwarden, ProtonPass; the principal would like to see both of you after class today.

  22. RE: fediscience.org/@oatp/11643887

    "Maximal transparency is almost certainly not ethically desirable."

    Desirable 'for whom'?

    For platforms facing regulatory scrutiny, opacity is a feature. For users discriminated against by biased recommendation engines, transparency is survival. For communities targeted by algorithmic manipulation, openness is a civil liberty.

    This paper usefully breaks transparency into dimensions and degrees—providing the "choice points" for an ethics of algorithmic openness. But let us be clear: the stakeholders who need transparency most are rarely the ones invited to design these systems.

    Our job as advocates for privacy, free software, and civil liberties is not to settle for the "ethically optimal" comfort zone of the powerful. It is to push the needle toward the maximum and let the burden of justification fall on those who demand secrecy.

    Let us use it to demand more.

  27. We’re currently doing testing of different self hosting platforms that can be used by community groups to manage their own day for documents and a range of apps.

    Specifically we’re looking into platforms that are

    1. open source and actively maintained
    2. Preferably supports the use of docker
    3. Has its own easy-install marketplace (sasy tk upgrade also)
    4. Critically includes Single Sogn on suppprt.. so team members can use ONE login across all apps in the platform
    5. Nice interface, easy, powerful

    Shout out if u have any suggestions.

    We’ve tried going full kubernetes but the bar is too high to take our whole team on the journey at this stage.

    Also keen not to reinvent the wheel and get behind a good existing project.

    If you are in Australia, please take a moment to read this and plan ahead.

    The national emergency alert test on July 27 will sound even if phones are on silent or Do Not Disturb. For some people, that matters more than others.

    If you are in a domestic violence situation and have a hidden or safety phone, consider where it will be before the test.

    Please share quietly with anyone who may need this

  32. Loomio the collaborative decision making tool REALLY needs a mobile app.

    Im in communities where some members dont even own a laptop/desktop and these folks arent just mobile first they are mobile only.

    Also, NOT having a mobile app is causing exclusionary dynamics as people miss being involved; and then rightly so, push to move away from the tool.

    I've made a *pretty crappy* pitch for this in the loomio github issues.

  37. ⚖️🇪🇺 New at RC Trust since January 2026: Rachel Griffin!

    As a Postdoctoral Researcher, Rachel works on EU platform regulation and questions of structural injustice – from online violence and algorithmic bias to the political power of large tech platforms. Her research also examines how “risk” is defined and governed in digital regulation.

    At RC Trust, she’s expanding this work to AI regulation, collaborating across disciplines.

  40. The "privacy" you think you have in Malaysia is an illusion.

    Authorities have a legal backdoor into your entire digital existence. Under Section 249 of the Communications & Multimedia Act (CMA), police can demand your passwords, PINs, or biometrics during an investigation.

    Here is the creepy part: Refusing to unlock your phone IS the crime itself.

    They don't need to crack sophisticated encryption; they just crack you with the threat of immediate arrest for "obstruction." You become a criminal just for trying to protect your data dignity.

    And it's getting worse. The incoming #Pindaan2025 amendments propose escalating penalties for non-compliance up to a staggering RM1 MILLION fine or 5 YEARS in prison.

    This isn't about fighting crime; it's an infrastructure designed to force compliance through state-sanctioned fear. Your digital mind is yours only until they ask for it. Wake up.

    I think that what we don't want to do is add more US tech capitalist spy shit than we have now.

    It's a bit like, well there's already sewage in the water, won't make any difference if there's more.

    I think we should prevent this ID nonsense AND work on decreasing the power #tech has over our data and our lack of privacy: finding alternatives, #degoogle, have better online security ...in a word, just strive to make #digitallife better.

    Uncle Mickey welcomed us to Kaurna Country this morning. Lovely to position this digital work within broader considerations of how we live together well and how we weave new approaches with established knowledge.

    Big talks this conference on if the internet is working for us, what its problems are and how we can govern our digital spaces for inclusion, openness and better societies (there’s lots of work to do!)

    What do u know about how the internet is governed? Would love peoples input and I’ll try fold some feedback into my conference contributions ;)
