kingoffrancesnowden leaks said israel wasnt sharing enough with u.s.Aug 15 00:00
kingoffranceso, same today i guessAug 15 00:00
activelowUSA/five-eyes are imposing mass surveillance globallyAug 15 00:00
activelowGermany is not a member of "five-eyes", and mass surveillance violates german constitutionAug 15 00:02
activelowbesides, german agencies themselves insist on mass surveillance tooAug 15 00:02
kingoffranceanyways, in that sense, five eyes almost perhaps is a transfigured cia, next level up (although how authority flows, no idea)Aug 15 00:04
kingoffrancejust one level of "centralizing" up againAug 15 00:04
kingoffrancecentralize across countries nowAug 15 00:04
kingoffrancetheres probably distinction between "gathering data" who "processes/evaluates" it etc.Aug 15 00:07
kingoffranceso analogy probably fails thereAug 15 00:07
kingoffrancefor collection i think is in the ballparkAug 15 00:07
kingoffrancemaybe a distinction between collection/coordinate but perhaps that line is blurryAug 15 00:08

kingoffrancelike the businesses. we spy on noone. our partners do :)Aug 15 00:08
kingoffrancedoes any of that matter? i dont know. but laws might be someone collects, someone else coordinates, someone else evaluates, someone else is authorized to act on that info.Aug 15 00:10
kingoffranceso they can all deny eachother "we dont collect" "we dotn coordinate" "we dont evalulate"  "we dont act"  Aug 15 00:10
kingoffranceeven if they are all connected, they can deny eachother like thatAug 15 00:10
kingoffranceand say they are within the scope of the particular thing they are supposed to be doingAug 15 00:11

psydruidfortunately these companies are being spied on so we know that we should avoid their productsAug 15 00:21
kingoffrancei think its been said cia took over oss too, which was more military.  so the "keyboard warrior" versus "act on information" dialectic was perhaps there right at the start.   take anything i say with grain of salt, just things people say, i do not follow such thingsAug 15 00:22
kingoffrancere: where they supposed to originally only coordinate data, or do other thingsAug 15 00:22
kingoffrance*wereAug 15 00:22
kingoffranceall i am saying is, there is a long history no doubtAug 15 00:23
psydruidwhich is why I am removing (and writing) their products out of my lifeAug 15 00:24

kingoffrancesnowden talked of espionage for businesses of course tooAug 15 00:27
activelowi enjoyed "best of both worlds", the eastern apparatus and the western oneAug 15 00:31
activelowi would describe it as a clusterfuck of party politics, business interess, corruption and sabotage of opponents, which is ruinous to a healthy society wherever this flourishes, as it does in germany nowadaysAug 15 00:32
activelowsoviet union collapsed, not within a few days or weeks, nonetheless it didAug 15 00:32

schestowitz-TRXRevan86: yes, indeedAug 15 18:35
Ariadneso i would say that at least some of the freenode staff were pressing her to resignAug 15 18:35

schestowitz-TRMinceR and I had to lower access to the channel to mitigateAug 15 18:37
Ariadneas for tomaw becoming head of staff, it was the obvious choiceAug 15 18:37
schestowitz-TRit was round the time I already worried about big network being spam magnetsAug 15 18:37
schestowitz-TRfor small networks it can be simpler to cope, or not attract that in the first place (lowered incentive)Aug 15 18:38
Ariadnetomaw represented the staffers who were also atheme members when negotiating with christelAug 15 18:38
Ariadnee.g he was 'shop steward'Aug 15 18:38
XRevan86Anyway, to me the most important bit is that Andrew tried to paint a narrative where he is all hands-off and the evil staffers tried to bully a poor innocent Christel, and he just had to step in and bring them to justice.Aug 15 18:38
schestowitz-TRyes, a lieAug 15 18:38
Ariadneyeah no that wasn't the case at allAug 15 18:38

Ariadnevery likelyAug 15 18:40
Ariadnei would put money on itAug 15 18:40
schestowitz-TRsometimes it's like thisAug 15 18:40
schestowitz-TRjump or I pushAug 15 18:40
Ariadnei think andrew and tomaw made a deal to get rid of christelAug 15 18:40
Ariadneand then the deal went southAug 15 18:40
schestowitz-TReasily to get another job is you jumpAug 15 18:40
Ariadneover the 2FA thingAug 15 18:41
Ariadnei have reasons to think that, namely i encouraged andrew to talk to the atheme people, including tomawAug 15 18:42
XRevan86I get that tomaw wanted to reserve the domain to freenode, but I'm pretty sure the 2FA thing was a compromise to at least make it secure against password brute-forcing.Aug 15 18:42
schestowitz-TR2fa is not goodAug 15 18:42
schestowitz-TRfor many reasonsAug 15 18:42
schestowitz-TRI can point to many articlesAug 15 18:42

schestowitz-TRnever asked, eitherAug 15 18:47
Ariadnewell, in 2005, atheme was created as a result of freenode's development team deciding to collectively organizeAug 15 18:47
schestowitz-TR"you were always afraid to ask...."Aug 15 18:47
Ariadnechristel at that time was a freenode staffer (a level1 helper)Aug 15 18:47
Ariadneafter some dust settled, time moved on and things were mostly alrightAug 15 18:48
Ariadnethen christel was nominated to be secretary of PDPCAug 15 18:48
Ariadneshe leaked to atheme that lilo had been cooking the books at PDPCAug 15 18:49

AriadneCrystalMath: as for libera being left or right wing, given that it was primarily created by the atheme side of freenode's staff, and that atheme has traditionally been an apolitical organization (except when advancing the concept of personal digital autonomy, of which software freedom is a component), i don't think that you have to worry about them banning you for being right wingAug 15 18:59
CrystalMathAriadne: i didn't say i was right-wing :P i'm not that far in that directionAug 15 18:59
CrystalMathi am a little i guessAug 15 18:59
CrystalMathbut only because individual freedom is right-wing nowAug 15 19:00

MinceRhow does individual freedom fit into hijacking the state to force one's own religion on others?Aug 15 19:00
MinceR"left-wing" and "right-wing" are both cancerAug 15 19:00

CrystalMathMinceR: no i mean the very idea of freedom of the individual is considered right-wing nowAug 15 19:01

Ariadneno it's notAug 15 19:01
