  • Sham consent popups finally deemed illegal! 🎉

  • Oh.... I thought it meant that those cookie banners were 'false consent' and therefore render the data collected to be illegal?

    Please provide more info - I would like to learn more about this subject!

  • That is a great find. Thank you!

  • Totally. And that "legitimate interest" nonsense takes ages to click through 🤦

  • Damn, I hadn't even thought about the environment impact! Is there any research quantifying that?

  • I do support them already 😊

    But you're right about this government - they just got exposed for being corrupt with big tech https://archive.is/DlUeE

  • Thank you! The Vivaldi team are great 😁

  • Has anyone tested yunohost?

    Jump

  • I thought that I would need Yunohost to take care of all the web hosting stuff in the back ground...? Are you saying to just push files into the VPS barebones, or into Yunohosts website app shell? (Sorry I'm new to VPS stuff).

    And how would you push the files from Codeberg? what is the method?

  • really? It works with just http? that is weird.

    It suggests to me that the web hosting company we are using don't know what they're doing. We're going to change.

  • If I host a website on Yunohost can I push the files from Codeberg to it using git?

  • Experience with Yunohost

    Jump

  • Does anyone know if you can deploy files to Yunohost using Git? Or via a url from a git repository?

    I'd like to host a website using Yunohost, and push the files to it from Codeberg.

  • good points, well written.

    On the conspiracy point: Would it help to distinguish between standard use of micro-targeting (flooding the zone with shit and targeting swing voters) and foreign gov interference?

    I find both to be shocking, but perhaps the latter is more conspiracy like. And the latter requires the misuse of the RTB system (e.g. the Russian military paying to pose as advertisers to get access to the RTB data), whereas the former is just an ugly byproduct of using the RTB system legally.

  • The site is hosting by a hosting company - and they assure me that the cert is fine.

    If I was self hosting I'd expect these problems, but not with a hosting company.

    The only difference with this company is that they do not use any big tech infrastructure - they have their own servers. I wonder if big tech has something they don't.....?

  • Interesting!

    And then Fuckerberg would gaslight us by declaring that "public health is dead"

  • lol you're right up there with the person suggesting doxxing just to show them it can be done...!

    Having said that I did read about someone who tried to locate themselves using publically findable information, and they managed it. It freaked them out a bit, so to do it to someone else would be wild.

  • This is my attempt at that: Rebel Tech Alliance - Learn Section

    I'd like to crowdsource this learning section but not sure how. I linked to the Codeberg site on the homepage but that probably won't work as too techy.

  • It certainly make me feel safer against big tech snooping. Is obscuring your IP address not useful? I genuinely want to hear the arguments for and against VPNs. And if they're not effective what are better ways we can protect ourselves?

  • I'm in the UK and there's a feeling amongst some that "we're next" if we don't curb the rise of the far right.

    The Reform party's victories here this week are another alarm bell.

  • Shoshana Zuboff says that privacy is already, effectively, dead. Or at least on life support. And there is no way we can reform the tech giants and surveillance capitalism. She says the only way out is around - to boycott them and use alternatives. That's what inspired my site.
