Apple did not get any more benign; it's getting more vicious and when_it_talks_about_privacy_it_is_actually_lying. Apple also refuses to support very common and useful protocols, formats etc. Apple gravitates towards monopoly power, even if that actively and thoroughly harms users. According to this_new_report: "The European Commission announced guidance today for improving third-party connectivity with iOS. Apple is, of course, miserable about this. I am curious to see the real-world results, particularly as the more dire predictions of permitting third-party app distribution have shockingly not materialized." An associate of ours asked: "Can the EU force Apple to support ODF, finally?" "ODF is thoroughly documented and not a moving target. ODF was around long before DOCX, but it's not wise to draw attention to the name DOCX," the associate added. One can only hope, but over 15 years ago we wrote many articles about how Apple helped OOXML (or "DOCX" etc.) and by doing so it helped Microsoft while acting against open standards and Free software. Since then Apple did a whole bunch of other things against Free software, including on the patent front, the licensing front, and censorship of "apps". Apple is a vicious and Trump-supporting company (not "woke"); saying you use Macs or iSomething while supporting Free software is a bit of a contradiction; it sends a baffling message. It's like saying that you love animals while you eat them. The associate hopes the EU will get its way, "or will it mean that the Apple's MacOS Finder will finally support SFTP like all the GNU/Linux file managers have done for *decades*?" No, not really. SFTP is not "an app" and Apple wants to steer people away from actually secure (shielded by SSH) transmission protocols. This other_article_is in_the_news: § EU orders Apple to open up iOS connectivity features⠀➾ [...] With the Digital Markets Act adopted in 2022, the European Union has identified Apples iOS (as well as other companies products) as Gatekeepers... That's from a pro-Apple site of IDG. The EU's site is a JavaScript_"app" that lacks real pages, so more authoritative links are hard to vouch for. █ * Gemini_Links_20/03/2025:_Wanting_the_Future_Back_and_"Society_That_Lost Focus" * The_Microsoft-Led_Open_Source_Initiative_(OSI)_is_Hurting,_It'll_Try_to Hurt_Its_Critics_and_Exposers_Now ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⠛⠋⠀⡀⠀⢀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⡊⠁⠺⡆⠀⠂⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⢿⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⢀⣤⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣡⣤⣾⣶⣦⣿⣿⣿⣇⡀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣶⣶⣶⣤⠀⢸⣀⠐⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣤⣤⣤⣀⠀⢀⡈⢻⣧⣸⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⢈⣀⡀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⢊⣠⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣥⠶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠛⠋⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⣯ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣤⣀⠻⠿⠿⠶⠂⠛⣻⠿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣷⣿⣿⣯⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⡟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⢀⡀⠀⢰⣿⠀⣸⡿⣿⣥⣼⣿⣽⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡟⠉⠉⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣦⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⠿⣿⣟⡻⢿⠀⣽⣷⣤⣸⣿⣤⣿⠇⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⠉⠁⠀⠀⢩⡀⢰⣶⣾⣆⠀⠠⣀⣀⣀⣤⣤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣦⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣷⣿⣵⣶⣯⣽⡆⠀⠋⠹⣿⣹⣿⣿⠿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⡛⠂⠀⣤⣤⣾⣿⣤⣦⣈⠉⣉⣤⣤⣾⠿⠟⠛⠋⠉ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠐⠛⠻⢟⠛⠛⢻⠛⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣝⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣤⣾⣿⣷⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠁⠉⠙⠛⠃⠚⠻⠛⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣴⣦⣤⣤⣤⣴⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠓⡄⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠙⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⢉⡙⠟⠛⠛⠻⠃⢀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠋⠉⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣠⣤⣶ ⠀⢠⣧⣤⣭⣤⠀⠈⠀⢠⠀⠀⠁⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠍⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣟⣻⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠉⠉⠉⠉ ⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⡅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠘⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⠤⣤ ⠀⣽⡿⠻⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⢀⠀⠀⠤⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⡀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡚⠋⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣛⣿⣭ ⣇⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠏⡜⠀⠀⢠⠄⣉⢻⡰⠀⠀⠔⢐⠁⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠗⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿ ⢈⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⢵⠀⠀⠀⠂⢙⠀⠀⠀⠆⣠⠤⠤⠀⢀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⡀⡾⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⣶⣾ ⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠃⠈⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⠁⠀⣠⣤⠀⢀⡀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠿ ⠀⢀⣠⣤⣤⣦⣤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⢸⣿⠋⣰⣿⠟⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⠏⣼⣿⠏⣠⣿⠇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰ ⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠐⠐⠀⠀⡀⡀⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣯⣾⡿⢋⣀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸ ⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣶⣶⡆⠈⡽⠃⠀⠀⠔⢺⣿⣻⣷⣶⡦⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣫⣶⡿⠋⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⣼⡻⢿⣿⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⠿⡿⠃⠐⠃⠂⠀⠀⠘⠰⣿⣿⡍⢹⣇⠨⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⣿⡷⠟⠃⠶⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠝⡤⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠉⠀⢨⠏⠀⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢹⣿⣿⠌⢫⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⣀⡀⠀⢀⢀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⣤⣿⣤⣼⣷⣤⣤⣿⣯⣯⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⣿⡿⠈⠀⠁⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠹⡕⠠⠈⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡛⣻⡿⠛⠛⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣭⣽⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠉⠉⠉⠉⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠻⠟ ⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠈⠀⢀⣠⢤⡄⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⣀⣴⣦⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠰⠶⠄⠀⢀⢀⣀⡀⠀⢠⣶⣶⣶⣶⠼⣿⡇⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡃⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣾⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⡿⠛ ⣾⣿⣿⡋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠅⠜⠒⠂⢀⡀⠈⢸⠿⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠉⠃⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠘ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 195 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2025/03/20/Debian_Pregnancy_Cluster_when_I_stopped_using_IRC.shtml Gemini version at https://techrights.org/n/2025/03/20/Debian_Pregnancy_Cluster_when_I_stopped_using_IRC.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian Pregnancy Cluster, when I stopped using IRC⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 20, 2025 Reprinted with permission from Daniel_Pocock. In my last blog, I started to explore the phenomena of a Debian_pregnancy cluster that occurred in the lead-up to DebConf13 which was held in Switzerland. Ana, from Spain, was another case. Around the time that Marga_started_the conspiratorial_emails, Ana started contacting me almost every day on IRC. The plotters saw me as the most open-minded person in Switzerland and hoped that I would be able to exert influence on other members of the local team. If Ana's employer was a client I would have had to bill an hour per day, approximately five hours per week, for the discussions that appeared on IRC and elsewhere. I eventually stopped using IRC: Subject: Re: not on IRC Date: Tue, 27 Nov 2012 13:18:31 +0100 From: Ana Guerrero To: Daniel Pocock On Tue, Nov 27, 2012 at 09:03:49AM +0000, Daniel Pocock wrote: > > > > Hi Ana, > > I'm on the road for a few more days, so I am not monitoring IRC at all > and only intermittently accessing email > > Can you please email me if there is any urgent question, etc? > > What do you think of Marga's current direction? Do you think other > people may get involved now? > Don't worry too much and keep a low profile. We have almost gotten they postpone the contract signing tomorrow. that's a first step. I'm serious abotu the low profile thing, they like blaming things on you and if you're not active, they cann't. A few months later, the email appeared on debian-private confirming that Ana had been part of the Debian_pregnancy_cluster. The baby arrived just two months before DebConf13. Now we know the real reason women were pushing to change the venue. As a senior developer, I felt that IRC did not give me a net benefit for the time I was online. Whether it is on IRC, on social_control_media or on a self- managed social media/forum like Discourse, there is a tendency for everybody to focus their questions on the senior developers and we get swamped. Subject: A different kind of release Date: Sun, 12 May 2013 18:53:56 +0200 From: Aurelien Jarno To: debian-private@lists.debian.org CC: Ana Guerrero Hi, We are happy parents of a son called Manuel, born a few days ago. Everybody is fine, and we are trying to get used to our new schedule. Therefore our time to contribute to Debian might vary from day to day. Ana & Aurelien [ This message is to be kept private forever ] -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurelien@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net § Privacy & Debian hyprocrisy⠀➾ The email concludes with a footnote, [ This message is to be kept private forever ]. When my father died, rogue Debianists demonstrated utter contempt for the privacy of my family. Yet they impose upon the rest of us to hide their conflicts_of_interest and the notorious Debian_suicide_cluster. It is important to look at the full email and the pressure on DebConf13 and then take a fresh look at the attacks on José Manuel Santamaría Lema ("santa"). Looking at the attacks on Santa, Ana sent the mail to start the lynching just a few weeks before she went on maternity leave. Then they chose the name Manuel for their new son. I feel that other people have paid a price for Ana's insecurities during her first pregnancy, yet the pregnancy was hidden from most people, especially from Santa. When they named their son Manuel, did they realize they were borrowing from the name of the volunteer they lynched? Subject: Removing a non-DD member of the Qt/KDE team Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:00:57 +0100 From: Ana Guerrero To: debian-private@lists.debian.org, nm@debian.org, leader@debian.org [sorry for the duplicated email if you receive it twice] Hi, This email is about the decision of the Qt/KDE team [1] of banning José Manuel Santamaria Lema, aka santa, from the team. This means removing him from the pkg-kde alioth group and removing him from all the group maintained packages. After that there are only 4 packages maintained only by him, that are KDE related and you can find plans at [2]. José is also a DM [3], at the moment, he's only allowed to upload a single package that as seen in [2] will go to the hands of the KDE team. The DD who authorized him the rights for uploading this package is revoking them. With this email, we are also asking FD/NM committee to remove him as DM. First of all, none of us have any doubt of the technical skills of José. However, he has shown he doesn't know how to work inside a team, ... [ snip defamation ] ... That is from the woman who didn't tell other team members that she was in the final stages of her first pregnancy. It looks like Ana and other team members couldn't keep up with the pace at which Santa was working. Ana's availability was changing due to her pregnancy and other team members would have had extra effort because of that. Is it fair that other developers are punished at a time like that? I fully support the right of women to participate in technical hobbies like Debian. Employers have certain obligations to women during pregnancy. Volunteers collaborating remotely over the Internet often have no idea whether a woman is pregnant and even if we did know, it isn't fair that other volunteers have suffered adverse consequences in that period. Santa's activity completely stopped, so the Qt/KDE team simultaneously lost two people: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇José_Manuel_Santamaría_Lema,_Debian,_character assassination,_vendetta,_expulsion,_lynching⦈_ § Resignations followed⠀➾ Subject: Resignation Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2013 14:59:27 -0500 From: John Hasler Reply-To: John Hasler Organization: Dancing Horse Hill To: debian-private@lists.debian.org I've resigned.

Usually the initial coordination of our reaction to an announcement of this sort is done in private just in case there are privacy concerns from the family, anything we have to coordinate about how they want to handle notification, etc. That way, we can be careful about how we phrase our first public notice, which has been important for a few instances in the past. -- Russ Allbery (rra@debian.org) § Not only women get baby brain⠀➾ OPW is the Outreach Program for Women, now known as Outreachy.

There's lots of good information and really good points in there. Towards the end he says: "How to manage and help colleagues or partners who are still stuck on US BigTech (eg. How to politely refuse a "Teams" invitation and respond with something safer). The time to start moving was yesterday. But today is the next best chance." Andy says he and his daughter successfully avoid GAFAM; the same is true in our household. It'd doable. It may take some adjustment, but it's worth the effort. One piece of software that my wife uses (only habitually) is LibreOffice. It can handle almost all the charts and spreadsheets she must deal with. Earlier today we wrote about how Apple_was_very_hostile_towards_open_standards_like ODF. It still is. Regulators do nothing about this. We mentioned "DOCX" along the way, but that was not a good idea because it's just some vague and "moving target" of Microsoft. "DOCX" is proprietary and a secret; "furthermore," one person reminded us, "OOXML is *NOT* the same as DOCX [and] OOXML is not used anywhere by any program since the spec is so large yet incomplete." "The various projects just try to reverse-engineer DOCX, and that can be pointed out without mentioning DOCX." Fair point. So we stand corrected. Thankfully I very seldom receive "DOCX" files. Andy mentioned "[h]ow to politely refuse a "Teams" invitation and respond with something safer)." I do the same when receiving attachments in lousy, proprietary formats (including "DOCX"). It typically works (data resent in an open format instead). There's not much to report other than this. Today and yesterday I spent hours improving my feed reader (which I had created) because the news is very slow and some proportion of the stuff on the Web is fake 'articles' or LLM slop. Hours ago I saw new examples of that in LinuxTechLab and Planet Ubuntu. Yes, there's_still_slop_in_Planet_Ubuntu. That's bad optics. But that's hardly_the worst_thing_about_Ubuntu_right_now. As usual, linuxsecurity.com has also just published this fake article.

In many cases, people hear about it for_the_first_time. He does not charge people for the talk, he just says he's in Europe this spring and if people contact him on rms@gnu.org, he'll come: "My second visit to Europe will be after February. If you are interested in inviting me to speak there, and you have a venue to use and a public to invite, please email me soon with 'speaking invitation' in the Subject field, using the name rms and the host gnu dot org.

Microsofters⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 20, 2025, updated Mar 20, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Ceramic_Distinguished_Military_Gentleman⦈_ Last week: Brett_Wilson_LLP_Does_Not_Deny_Microsoft_or_Another_"Third_Party" Secretly_Funds_the_SLAPPs_Against_Techrights,_Bankrolling_Despicable_People_Who Deserve_Criticism Yesterday we received inappropriate_communications (in the post) on behalf of American Microsofters who attempt to whiten_their_reputation using some very poor_law_firm (desperate for money; it has less money in the bank than what it received from the Microsofters). I thought it's a good time to bring up what motivates them and who might be sponsoring the SLAPPs. Set aside violence against women and all sorts of other things; it's not about personal issues but business_issues. In short, Mr. Graveley is a former Microsoft employee with a "best friend" (according to him) who is in the C suite/executive level at Microsoft. More to the point though, he is strangling/ choking and then gagging the victims talking about it. As for the lawyer chosen by MJG (and then Mr. Graveley), this lawyer shows ongoing eagerness to attack women, maybe because of his religion (that's just my personal opinion anyway). Attacking a person for merely reporting crimes against women is a low blow. Mr. Graveley used the exact same lawyer as Garrett less than a week before MJG (Garrett) had to serve his defense in response to legal action my wife took against MJG (Garrett) [1, 2] and another one I took against Garrett (for he had harassed me for well over a decade and defamed me a lot publicly because_of_my stance_on_tech, e.g. on UEFI). This seems to me like a legal hack, which is insincere and maybe in breach of some protocol (pulling in some third party to influence from the outside or interfere; he jumped in with what became yet another pre-action letter with scary sums drafted into a draft form; probably bluffing). That's after literally_begging and sending_threats ("legally" making threats has its limits). Seems like a form of intimidation instead of due process; in 2015 the EPO, Europe's second-largest organisation, hired several litigious firms to spy on me and try to scare me, deterring me from further reporting on the EPO's corruption. Pre-action letters were clearly misused to scare me into self-censorship regarding utter corruption that even Private Eye credited us for (several times that year). A lot of the press reported on our findings, which were in no way defamatory. This is similar, except it's not the EPO. I'll probably write more about this tomorrow, which happens to be an important deadline for the Defendant, MJG (Garrett). █ * The_Microsoft-Led_Open_Source_Initiative_(OSI)_is_Hurting,_It'll_Try_to

The OSI series is having a big impact (see previous_part or previous_chapter) and we'll resume that some time soon. Techrights currently has an outline and 3 drafts about the OSI blunders. The OSI's chief meanwhile issues a bunch of meaningless waffle, a sort of "damage control" or "face-saving" platitudes. 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Your_support,_our_focus:_The_OSI’s_2025_roadmap_to_a stronger_Open_Source_ecosystem:_Blah_blah_blah;_Blah_blah_blah;_Blah_blah_blah⦈ Their RSS feed has not_been_so_active_lately. The means they're hurting. They don't know whether to keep quiet (silence suppresses heated replies) or talk about a bunch of 'nothing_burgers'. Aside from the above there are threats, bans, and doxing. We'll revisit that soon. Just like Microsoft and other vicious dictators, the OSI reckons it can just smear, defame, and censor critics. Techrights too is targeted - even more so lately - because of exclusives, possibly because others (such as sites or authors) got knocked down by threats and budgetary issues. Microsoft et al have been changing their strategy over the years to threatening employers, bribing employers, doxing, and then the same for webhosts. Techrights is aggregating public material, it does not illegally obtain anything. So that makes us a "difficult" "target". In a lot of ways we're flattered that Techrights has gotten so "scary" to these sinister companies and front groups. We welcome their fear. Techrights likes to joke about how they shoot their own foot and often give us "free publicity". One wrong move... and we'll file another lawsuit [1, 2] (when they go too far and do obviously illegal things). Matthew Garrett, for instance, will need to come to the UK to face lawsuits filed against him in the High Court. It's not a joke, it is actually happening. █ * Apple_is_Still_an_Enemy_of_Open_Standards_and_Software_Freedom * Techrights_Will_Never_Capitulate_to_Threats_From_Microsofters ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⢿⣿⢿⢿⡿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⣿⣿⢿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣈⣮⣸⣖⣶⣸⣨⣣⣗⣹⣣⣐⣗⣿⣿⣽⣿⣈⣃⣈⣐⣸⣿⣿⣽⣿⣗⣁⣀⣒⣈⣂⣂⣃⣁⣀⣒⣚⣀⣘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡛⢿⣿⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣷⡈⢃⣼⢉⣍⠙⡏⣿⡏⣿⢉⣉⣿⡏⠭⣙⡏⢹⡏⢹⢉⣭⠙⡏⢩⡍⢻⠋⣭⠙⡏⢉⣩⠁⣭⣿⣿⣿⢋⣭⠙⡏⢹⡏⣿⠉⣉⣿⣯⢨⡝⢉⣍⢻⠋⣩⣙⡏⣿⡏⣿⠩⢍⣻⣉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣸⣿⣘⢛⣠⣇⢛⣁⣿⣸⣿⣿⣇⠒⣀⣇⢘⣁⣸⢈⡛⣠⡇⢘⢃⣼⣀⠛⣠⣇⣸⣿⣄⣛⡏⣿⣿⣈⢛⣠⣇⢘⣁⣿⣀⣿⣿⣿⣸⣧⣘⢋⣸⣄⡛⣉⣇⢙⣁⣏⡐⢂⣸⣉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⡿⠿⢿⣿⢾⡿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⠶⠿⣿⡿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣶⡆⢰⣾⠀⢛⠛⡿⢛⡛⢿⣿⡇⣰⣶⡀⢏⠐⠶⢴⣿⢸⣇⡟⣛⠛⣿⣯⣴⡶⢈⡏⢰⣦⠘⣧⣴⠆⢸⡇⠖⠲⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⠀⣿⠀⣇⠠⠤⢸⣿⣇⠹⠿⢁⣞⠳⠶⠀⣿⢸⣿⡗⠤⠈⣿⡿⠋⠴⠿⣇⠸⠟⢠⡟⠁⠴⢿⡓⠿⠇⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⢿⠿⠿⣿⡿⠿⢿⡿⠿⠇⣿⠿⠿⢿⠿⢿⡿⠿⢿⡿⠿⠿⣿⣿⠏⠹⢿⠿⠿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⣿⣿⠿⠿⡿⠉⠿⡿⠿⢿⠿⠿⣿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠿⢿⡿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡇⣶⡆⢸⡷⢸⠂⣩⠀⡇⢾⡆⣿⠀⣷⢰⣷⢸⠒⣩⠀⡇⢸⡇⢸⣿⡇⢸⡇⢸⡷⢸⣿⠗⣩⠀⣿⡿⢌⡑⢺⠀⣿⡇⣶⡆⢸⡇⢸⠀⣾⠀⡧⠘⠁⣼⠀⣭⠤⡇⢰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣶⣴⣾⣶⣶⣶⣷⣶⣶⣿⣶⣿⣾⣿⣾⣶⣴⣶⣇⣰⣴⣾⣿⣷⣶⣾⣶⣴⣾⣿⣷⣴⣶⣿⣿⣶⣴⣾⣶⣶⣷⣿⣿⣶⣴⣿⣶⣿⣶⣇⣒⣂⣸⣷⣴⣾⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡿⢋⣉⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢉⣉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⠂⣿⢠⣶⠈⡇⣐⣂⣻⢠⣦⢸⣿⣧⣄⣉⠹⠃⣴⡄⢹⢸⣿⢸⡇⣴⡎⢰⣦⡍⢐⣂⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣭⣴⣿⢠⣭⣴⣧⣬⣥⣿⣼⣿⣼⣿⣧⣬⣥⣴⣧⣬⣥⣾⣬⣥⣼⣧⣿⣷⣬⣥⣶⣤⣭⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠏⠩⠍⠿⢩⣍⣻⢉⣭⠙⡏⠭⢉⡍⢻⠋⡏⠩⢍⣯⢨⡽⠩⠭⢹⠉⣩⠉⣩⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣆⣙⣋⣧⣘⣋⣹⣈⣛⣠⣍⣒⣀⣿⠀⣼⣏⣒⣂⣿⣘⣳⣈⣛⣹⣀⣿⣀⣿⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣛⡻⡿⣿⡛⠿⡿⠿⣿⢻⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⢿⠿⡻⠿⠻⠿⢿⣛⡻⢻⠻⡿⠿⠿⣿⠿⠟⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⡟⠻⢿⠿⠻⠿⠟⠿⠿⠻⣿⠿⢿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠻⠿⢿⣻⡛⡛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣷⣼⣿⣿⣶⣷⣷⣶⣶⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣾⣵⣶⣷⣦⣿⣶⣶⣾⣷⣶⣶⣶⣷⣶⣶⣷⣾⣾⣶⣶⣿⣷⣶⣤⣶⣿⣶⣿⣶⣿⣿⣶⣶⣾⣶⣶⣿⣾⣶⣶⣾⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣉⣙⣟⣏⣽⣯⣉⣹⣹⣅⣀⣋⣩⣸⣨⣩⣀⣉⣈⣟⣉⣏⣏⣨⣉⣹⠉⣩⣏⣉⣿⣋⣹⣍⣁⣏⣅⣙⣍⣹⣹⣸⣉⣯⣉⣈⣹⣉⣉⣏⣹⣉⣩⣍⣈⣏⣿⣉⣙⣝⣍⣉⣹⣝⢩⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠻⢿⢻⣿⢿⢛⠻⠿⠿⣿⡟⢿⢿⠿⢿⠿⡿⠿⡿⡿⠿⠿⠟⠿⢿⡿⣟⠟⠻⢿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⡿⠿⢿⠛⡟⠿⡿⠟⠿⢿⡟⣿⡟⡛⠛⢻⠿⡟⢻⣟⠻⡿⣿⠿⠿⡿⢿⡻⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣾⣾⣾⣿⣾⣷⣶⣶⣾⣿⣶⣷⣶⣶⣷⣶⣷⣾⣶⣾⣾⣶⣶⣶⣿⣷⣿⣾⣷⣾⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣶⣶⣾⣶⣷⣶⣷⣶⣶⣾⣷⣶⣿⣶⣶⣾⣶⣿⣿⣿⣾⣷⣷⣶⣶⣷⣾⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣸⣈⣀⣂⣇⣱⣀⣺⣂⣁⣕⣀⣪⣨⣏⣖⣃⣇⣷⣉⣱⣀⣇⣹⣄⣮⣪⣎⣹⣂⣯⣊⣩⣻⣺⣺⣿⣰⣇⣸⣋⣠⣀⣸⣈⣂⣂⣠⣩⣹⣨⣨⣸⣖⣾⣈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠛⠻⢛⠙⠋⠛⠛⡟⡋⡛⠋⠙⠛⡛⠛⢛⢻⣛⡻⡛⣟⡟⣻⡍⢛⠟⣟⣿⡹⡛⠛⢛⡿⢻⡛⢛⣛⢛⠻⠛⠛⢻⡟⢻⠛⡛⠛⡛⠋⠛⠋⠛⡏⡛⡟⠙⠛⡟⡛⣻⣛⡛⠛⣛⡟⠋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⡿⣾⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣤⣴⣦⣤⣆⣠⣴⣠⣷⣤⣥⣴⣴⣤⣤⣤⣀⣦⣤⣼⣤⣴⣤⣧⣦⣅⣨⣤⣤⣤⣤⣎⣿⣤⣷⣤⣥⣤⣤⣧⣤⣤⣼⣴⣥⣌⣿⣼⣦⣤⣴⣶⣤⣤⣥⣴⣤⣧⣽⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠛⠹⡟⢻⠛⢫⢿⣻⢛⠫⡛⡟⡟⠛⡏⢹⠛⢻⠛⡟⠻⠙⡻⢻⡟⡋⠛⢩⡿⣻⠛⢻⢻⣟⢻⣟⠋⢹⣟⡛⠛⠻⠛⡟⠛⠛⠟⢟⡏⠛⢿⠟⠛⠉⠛⢻⣛⠛⠋⠛⠛⠟⢿⠛⡛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⢿⠿⠷⢾⡿⡿⡿⠿⣿⢷⢿⠿⣿⠿⢿⢿⢿⡿⡿⡿⠿⡿⡿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠿⢿⢿⡿⡿⡿⡿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⡾⡿⡿⠿⡷⠿⡿⣿⠿⡿⡿⡿⣿⠿⡾⢿⡿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣼⣧⣼⣼⣯⣤⣿⣤⣤⣤⣽⣼⣼⣷⣤⣤⣼⣤⣼⣧⣯⣯⣼⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣯⣷⣤⣯⣯⣿⣤⣤⣤⣬⣤⣬⣤⣤⣯⣼⣿⣽⣤⣼⣭⣮⣦⣾⣼⣥⣬⣬⣿⣽⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2132 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://techrights.org/n/2025/03/20/What_Happened_to_the_Open_Source_Initiative_OSI_Elections_Leaki.shtml Gemini version at https://techrights.org/n/2025/03/20/What_Happened_to_the_Open_Source_Initiative_OSI_Elections_Leaki.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ What Happened to the Open Source Initiative (OSI) Elections: Leaking Information of Members (Even in 2025)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 20, 2025, updated Mar 20, 2025 More nonsense about Hey Hi (AI), which OSI has been openwashing on_Microsoft's payroll 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇OSI_and_Apereo_Foundation_Respond_to_White_House_on_AI Action_Plan⦈_ Hey Hi (AI) is typically nothing but proprietary spyware that lies. Does the OSI really wish too associate with proprietary spyware that lies? Right now? Bad taste. The OSI seems very eager to distract from the scandals (see the previous_part and the_one_from_two_days_ago, set aside the previous_chapter), so let's expedite things a little and talk about what they hope to distract everyone from. For the second time in a few_days Bradley M. Kuhn (SFC), who had decided to run for the Board, wrote about election weirdness. It's kind of funny to see him (who had attacked the FSF's leadership years ago) having a go at it; here's what he > wrote yesterday : Voting closed on MON 2025-03-17 at 10:00 US/Pacific. One hour later, candidates were surprised to receive an email from OSI demanding that all candidates sign a Board agreement before results were posted. This was surprising because during mandatory orientation, candidates were told the opposite: that a Board agreement need not be signed until the Board formally appointed you as a Director (as the elections are only advisory —: OSI's Board need not follow election results in any event. It was also surprising because the deadline was a mere 47 hours later (WED 2025-03-19 at 10:00 US/Pacific). We'll come back to the timing issues some other time. It'll be a chapter or two (or sections) In the meantime let's turn our attention to the OSI public list and privacy blunder. Here is the_link to the public OSI member list to use at your discretion, prudent readers (no passwords or anything like that there). Why on Earth, despite already knowing about this data leakage blunder, has the OSI not fixed this? We've waited for weeks already, assuming they might belatedly remove it. But no... it's still there: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇July_2021_Individual_OSI_Board_Election_(re-run)_—_Voters and_Ballot_Tracking_Center⦈_ Then the OSI fancies itself "consultant" to "authorities" in some ludicrous buzzwords, advising the White House what to do. And do what? More buzzwords?

I realize that having a "purpose" is vital. I work from home, and everyday is the same-ish. And as a brain that is always looking for inspiration and something to do, I need to plan events, even small things on the weekend. I'm really looking forward to visiting my family in NY in a couple of weeks, and then Combo Breaker (FGC event) in May! Then after that we'll plan some stuff for summer, and then I have a convention in the Fall. 💖 o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ Why_we_will_never_have_the_year_of_the_linux_desktop!⠀⇛ I watched a video that made me thing about FOSS software and why we will probably never have a mainstream linux desktop. # ⚓ remember_the_"sharing_economy"?⠀⇛ Remember when Uber and Airbnb dropped and the press got breathless over the "sharing economy" - a brave new world where we'd all be making money off things we owned, like our car or house? Asking for a friend. No reason. # ⚓ Changes⠀⇛ I wonder if I shouldn't have said anything about Ubuntu in recent entries. I found out that they are going to be ditching the GNU coreutils, and instead going with ones written in Rust[1]. I'm not a developer and I don't understand all the details, particularly Rust, but I'm not really jumping for joy at this news. As many others have said, If it ain't broke don't fix it. I saw a video that talking about Ubuntu's move, and the possible motivation behind it. A lot of commenters stated there are political motives, and others argued back and forth, so I gave up reading. I am aware of things going on in the FOSS community, but only on a superficial level. I would rather remain ignorant of it all, if for nothing but my own sanity. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Something_about_the_bot_defence_is_working⠀⇛ `alex-bots` is a setup I desribed in 2025-02- 19 Bots again, cursed. Basically a request to one of my Oddmuse wikis containing the parameter `rcidonly` is an expensive endpoint: "all changes for this single page" or "a feed for this single page". This is something a human would rarely access and yet it somehow the URLs landed in some dataset for AI training, I suspect. So what I do is I’m redirecting any request containing “rcidonly” in the query string to `/nobots`, warning humans not to click on these links. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

I also find a new appreciation for all of my ancestors who bore children and raised them even though their world seems like a hellscape compared to what I'm seeing. Sometimes I wish I could just go to church and sing and pray and it would all be good again. Except it don't believe in it. # ⚓ 2025-03-19⠀⇛ I just got so frustrated at a piece of code for work I took 20 minutes and rage cleaned my windows.

So now I have working code and clean windows 😎 o § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ How_Evil_Men_Come_Into_Power⠀⇛ As Trump once said, “We will divert all power in Washington, and give it to you; the people.” Politicans like these, who parade themselves in facades of arighteousness will often use the argument that since the Democratic Party align themselves with leftist beliefs, that they are associated with the ideals that brought forth the Communist and Socialist parties that the US itself once fought against in wars past. All this while they reinforce the idea that being the conservatives they are, that they wish to “conserve” American values and traditions that have helped them maintain power, without once embracing the changes that helped the United States survive this long in the first place. # ⚓ 2025-03-13⠀⇛ Today is a sneak off to the office day. I love my kids and homeschooling them but man... their pre- teen attitude(s) is making everything 10x harder than it needs to be. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ 2025-03-14⠀⇛ I did set the alarm for 2am, hoping to see the lunar eclipse... but clouds had other plans. The kids were disappointed. o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ I_Want_the_Future_Back⠀⇛ The future was stolen from us, and it started during the dot-com boom back in the late 90s. What happened? There was wide-spread manic investment in computer technology and computer networks. This was low-hanging fruit for the holders of capital. What did we get? Shitty websites. A surveillance panopticon powered by the locked-down and cloud- dependent computing devices in our pockets which we still ever-so-quaintly refer to as "phones". And now, artificial "intelligence". Which, by the way, is technically just machine learning. Oh, and while I'm at it, "AI" is another bubble that is fixin' to pop, just like the dot-com bubble did. # ⚓ 2025-03-15⠀⇛ This weekend I'm thinking about building a html quine (like Tiddlywiki) for a hexcrawl inspired from the dungeons and dragons expert rulebook. I envision something to play solo and explore 🤔 # ⚓ A_Society_That_Lost_Focus⠀⇛ In the early 90s, after tweaking my MS-DOS computer, I was able to play games. One of those game was called "Battle Chess". A Chess game were pieces were really fighting against each other. It was fun. I was, and still am, a mediocre chess player. I was mate in less than 10 or 15 turns at the easiest level. For the sake of the experiment, I turned the difficulty to an harder level and started playing. Something strange happened: I was still losing but it took a lot more turns. I was able to protect my game, even to manage a few draws. Was it a bug in the game? Even as a young teenager, I quickly understood the reason. With the setting set to "hard", the game would try harder to find a good move. On my 386 processor, without the mathematical coprocessor, this would take time. Several seconds or even one minute by turn. During that time, I was thinking, anticipating. With the easiest setting, computer moves would happen immediately. I knew I had all the time I wanted but I was compelled to move fast. I could not take the time while the other side was immediately reacting to my moves. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ A_skyrocket_on_a_low_gear⠀⇛ Since yesterday, I've been working on something bigger to deploy here in the Geminispace. I am still brewing the idea, though. Maybe I'll split it in different projects. The Gemini protocol is very limited, and this is great, but it doesn't have to be an isolate experience for the users. Although we seek a slow pace for the interactions established here, I am thinking of creating a place for fast and unusual interactions. # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ How_I_vibe_code⠀⇛ Good Lord! If you thought software today was bloated and slow, this sounds like it would produce software that is gigantically glacial in comparison (and by “embrace exponentials” I think he means “accept code with O(n^2) [3], O(2^n) or even O(n!) behavior”). [...] Now that I think about it, this is pretty much how programmers wrote code on home computers in the late 70s/early 80s. Funny that. But just blindly accepting LLM-written code? Good luck in getting anything to run correctly. # ⚓ CHANGELOG:_Expanded_Chapter_2_of_How_to_Program Good⠀⇛ I had previously published the first two chapters of my ongoing series, How to Program Good [0]. The second chapter deals with defining and describing the two fundamental building blocks of Good Programs: data and interfaces [1]. Chapter 3 is intended to cover the nuts and bolts of how components are composed together, using interfaces, as well as the lifetime of a component. However, there was an analogy I had planned to include in a later chapter, that of the marble run, which I realized would be helpful to include in chapter 2. This analogy gives a more concrete feeling for how components interact with neighboring components, using their interfaces, which I think would be helpful to have in-mind going into chapter 3. =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

But a separate recent result reinforces it. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ From_The_Ashes:_Coal_Ash_May_Offer_Rich_Source Of_Rare_Earth_Elements⠀⇛ For most of history, the world got along fine without the rare earth elements. We knew they existed, we knew they weren’t really all that rare, and we really didn’t have much use for them — until we discovered just how useful they are and made ourselves absolutely dependent on them, to the point where not having them would literally grind the world to a halt. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Our_Genes_Reveal_Mysterious_Split_in_Human Population_1.5_Million_Years_Ago⠀⇛ It still shapes us today. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Dark_Energy_May_Be_Evolving:_DESI_Findings Shake_Up_Einstein's_Theory⠀⇛ "What we are seeing is deeply intriguing." # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Euclid's_First_Deep_Fields_Images_Offer Glimpse_Into_'Dark_Universe'⠀⇛ This is just the beginning. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Quantum_'Tornadoes'_Spotted_in_Semimetal May_Redefine_Electronics⠀⇛ A strange new realm of physics. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ JWST_Detects_Carbon_Dioxide_Outside_Solar System_For_First_Time⠀⇛ A familiar signal in an alien system. # ⚓ Science Alert ☛ Space_Is_Set_to_Become_a_'Wild_West'_as Outdated_Laws_Struggle_to_Keep_Up⠀⇛ This is a new age. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Modern_Computing’s_Roots_Or_The_Manchester Baby⠀⇛ In the heart of Manchester, UK, a groundbreaking event took place in 1948: the first modern computer, known as the Manchester Baby, ran its very first program. The Baby’s ability to execute stored programs, developed with guidance from John von Neumann’s theory, marks it as a pioneer in the digital age. This fascinating chapter in computing history not only reshapes our understanding of technology’s roots but also highlights the incredible minds behind it.

Each served about 35,000 children and had experienced sharp increases in the racial diversity of students in recent decades. Each was run by a school board that was almost entirely white. In the five years since, the districts have followed strikingly divergent paths as culture war battles over how to teach race and gender exploded across the state. o § Hardware⠀➾ # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ MediaTek_Genio_720_and_520_AIoT_SoCs_target generative_Hey_Hi_(AI)_applications_with_10_TOPS_Hey_Hi_(AI) accelerator⠀⇛ The announcement of the MediaTek Genio 720 and Genio 520 octa-core Cortex-A78/A55 AIoT SoCs is one of the news I missed at Embedded World 2025.  The new models appear to be updates to the Genio 700 and Genio 500 with a beefier NPU, and the Taiwanese company says the new Genio series supports generative Hey Hi (AI) models, human-machine interface (HMI), multimedia, and connectivity features for smart home, retail, industrial, and commercial IoT devices. Both are equipped with a 10 TOPS NPU/AI accelerator for transformer and convolutional neural network (CNN) models and support up to 16GB of LPDDR5 memory to handle “edge-optimized” (i.e. quantized) large language models (LLMs) such as Llama, Gemini, Phi, and DeepSeek, and other generative Hey Hi (AI) tasks. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ World’s_Smallest_Blinky,_Now_Even_Smaller⠀⇛ Here at Hackaday, it’s a pretty safe bet that putting “World’s smallest” in the title of an article will instantly attract comments claiming that someone else built a far smaller version of the same thing. But that’s OK, because if there’s something smaller than this nearly microscopic LED blinky build, we definitely want to know about it. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ SoftBank_to_Buy_Silicon_Valley_Chip_Start- Up_Ampere_for_$6.5_Billion⠀⇛ The move is a bet that Ampere’s chips can begin playing a significant role in data centers for creating artificial intelligence. # ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ SoftBank_agrees_to_buy_Arm_chipmaker_Ampere Computing_for_$6.5B⠀⇛ SoftBank Group Corp. late today confirmed that it will buy the chipmaker Ampere Computing LLC in a deal that’s valued at $6.5 billion.

Masur (Chicago Law) and Lisa Larrimore Ouellette (Stanford Law). This blog recently covered the Federal Circuit’s important decision in In re Entresto (Novartis Pharmaceuticals v. Torrent Pharma), 125 F.4th 1090 (Fed. Cir. 2025), which upheld patent monopoly claims even though they covered after-arising technology that was not described or enabled in the specification. As Dennis noted, the Federal Circuit appeared to depart from well-established prior law on the subject. But as we explain in our forthcoming article, Disclosure Puzzles in Patent Law, we believe the court should move the law further still from where it stands—and it should correct some of its reasoning along the way. # ⚓ Unified Patents ☛ $1,000_awarded_for_IngenioSpec_wireless headphone_patent_monopoly_prior_art⠀⇛ Unified is pleased to announce PATROLL crowdsourcing contest winner, Huang Chien-Cheng, who was awarded a cash prize of $1,000 for their prior art submission on U.S._Patent_11,829,518, owned and asserted by IngenioSpec_LLC, an NPE.

As to the former refusal, applicant argued that the cited mark is used only with sales to "commercial purchasers who then incorporate the Class 26 goods into final products offered to consumers."

The frequency has fallen off over the years; perhaps my time for long- form pieces has decreased or, just as likely, I protect my sanity in these dark days by consuming less. No, I don’t filter out Fascist Craziness, because it’s a thing that needs to be understood to be resisted.

This means I have a half dozen large USB thumb drives with operating system installations on them. Yay! More data! Having high-speed Internet also allows me to suck information off the [Internet] at an outrageous rate. I can download dozens of GB of data in a morning if I feel like it, and of course, I often feel like it. I don't know for sure, but I suspect there may be a diagnosis associated with my personality type. o ⚓ Dedoimedo ☛ Schadenfreude_as_a_Service⠀⇛ It is almost impossible, and perhaps even counterproductive to try to fully disconnect oneself from this modern world. If you want to interact with the society, you must use a whole bunch of digital products. And sometimes, you must use these under duress, knowing there's no better alternative, not without actively harming your own interests and ability to function. But even so, you can still resist the greed rush. I've mulled about this problem many times over the years. There's always something new that comes up, triggering my indignation. Each time, I find new ways to improve my privacy and frugality stance. I don't want to make myself into a techno hermit. That's useless. But I make it harder for the greedy companies out there to milk me. o § IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ IBM_cuts_US_jobs_in_Classic_Cloud_and other_groups⠀⇛ IBM insiders believe Big Blue is laying off thousands of people at various locations around the US, including a quarter of staff the company's Cloud Classic operation.

However, around a third of engineering leaders (33%) don’t recognize this loss, indicating that many managers may not fully realize how much inefficiency affects their teams daily. * ⚓ Crooked Timber ☛ Dispensing_with_US_universities,_whether_we_want_to_or not⠀⇛ Taken in the broader context of the Trump dictatorship, this means the end of international research collaboration involving the US.

Given that AGI is what AI developers all claim to be their end game, it's safe to say that scaling is widely seen as a dead end. o ⚓ New Scientist ☛ AI_scientists_are_sceptical_that_modern_models will_lead_to_AGI⠀⇛ “The vast investments in scaling, unaccompanied by any comparable efforts to understand what was going on, always seemed to me to be misplaced,” says Stuart Russell at the University of California, Berkeley, a member of the panel that organised the report. “I think that, about a year ago, it started to become obvious to everyone that the benefits of scaling in the conventional sense had plateaued.” Nonetheless, tech companies plan to collectively spend an estimated $1 trillion on data centres and chips in the next few years to support their AI ambitions. o ⚓ Futurism ☛ Did_Google_Test_an_Experimental_AI_on_Kids,_With Tragic_Results?⠀⇛ Sewell was just 14 when, in February 2024, he died by suicide after what his mother describes as a swift, ten- month deterioration of his mental health. His death would make headlines later that year, in October, when Garcia filed a high-profile lawsuit alleging that her child's suicide was the result of his extensive interactions with anthropomorphic chatbots hosted by the AI companion company Character.AI, an AI platform boasting a multibillion-dollar valuation and financial backing from the likes of the tech giant Google — also named as a defendant in the lawsuit — and the Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. o ⚓ Sean Conner ☛ Who_serves_whom?⠀⇛ This has always been my fear of the recent push of LLM backed AI—not that they would help me do my job better, but that I existed to help it do its job better (if I'm even there). o ⚓ Pivot to AI ☛ AI_coding_tools_‘fix’_bugs_by_adding_bugs⠀⇛ What happens when you give an LLM buggy code with and tell it to fix it? It puts in bugs! It might put back the same bug! Worse yet, 44% of the bugs the LLMs make are previously known bugs. That number’s 82% for GPT-4o. So it looks like the common bugs are all through the standard training. “In bug-prone tasks, the likelihood of LLMs generating correct code is nearly the same as generating buggy code.” o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Trained_on_buggy_code,_LLMs_often_parrot_same mistakes⠀⇛ That is to say, when shown a snippet of shoddy code and asked to fill in the blanks, AI models are just as likely to repeat the mistake as to fix it. Nine scientists from institutions, including Beijing University of Chemical Technology, set out to test how LLMs handle buggy code, and found that the models often regurgitate known flaws rather than correct them. o ⚓ The New Stack ☛ Vibe_Coding_Is_Here_—_But_Are_You_Ready_for Incident_Vibing?⠀⇛ Imagine coding while entirely giving in to the vibes and forgetting that the code exists. Instead of typing, tell Cursor and Sonnet to build everything for you. When faced with a bug, you don’t try to troubleshoot — instead, you feed the error back into the LLM and copy-paste the fix. The code grows beyond your comprehension, but it always ends up working. That’s how Andrej Karpathy — an OpenAI founding member — describes Vibe Coding. o ⚓ 404 Media ☛ People_Are_Using_AI_to_Create_Influencers_With_Down Syndrome_Who_Sell_Nudes⠀⇛ A network of Instagram accounts is using AI to steal content from human creators and deepfake their faces to make them look like they have Down syndrome. 404 Media was able to determine the accounts are linked because they reuse Instagram bios, videos, and in some cases link to the same OnlyFans competitors pages where they monetize these videos. o ⚓ Cendyne Naga ☛ "Vibe_Coding"_vs_Reality⠀⇛ Without expert intervention, the best these tools can do today is produce a somewhat functional mockup, where every future change beyond that risks destroying existing functionality. I cannot — and would not — trust a team member who vibe codes in a production application. The constant negligence I observe when "Vibe Coding" is atrocious and unacceptable to a customer base of any size. o ⚓ Pivot to AI ☛ OpenAI_brings_you_statistically_average_literary fiction⠀⇛ Today, it’s time to get subjective. I’m a huge hipster snob. I have shelves full of records and books. I’m a rock critic. I have detailed opinions about why your favorite is trash. I do realise it’s okay for people to like things even if I think they’re trash. That’s fine. I suppose. * § Social Control Media⠀➾ o ⚓ [Repeat] Press Gazette ☛ Newsreel:_The_gamified_version_of_news aimed_at_Gen_Z⠀⇛ Newsreel is aimed at 18 to 30-year-olds, a demographic who rarely now visit publisher websites or watch TV news, and are likely to consume most of their online content via platforms like Instagram, Tikok and Youtube which offer readers an endless stream of short videos. o ⚓ Manuel Matuzović ☛ Breaking_up_with_my_X⠀⇛ I still don't know why they banned me in the first place and why they finally reverted it, but I don't care. What I care about is that I can finally close this chapter. Initially, I immediately wanted to delete my account, but several people suggested it may be wiser to leave it as is so that no one can take over the handle. Finally, I did the following: [...] o ⚓ New Statesman ☛ Christine_Rosen:_“If_you_give_people_an_easy path,_they_will_take_it”⠀⇛ If such a thought experiment were to be repeated in 2025, would it produce the same results? The American academic Christine Rosen is not so sure. Her new book, The Extinction of Experience, argues that social media, gaming, dating apps and smartphones have severely diminished real-life experiences. Rosen, who is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), a centre-right think tank based in Washington DC, spends most of her time thinking about the social and cultural implications of big tech. She believes that as more of us are living our lives through the small block of metal and glass in our pockets, our willingness and ability to experience the world is diminishing. o ⚓ Techdirt ☛ After_Election_Chaos,_Romania_Proposes_Platforms Invent_Magic_Wand_As_Content_Moderation_Solution⠀⇛ The backstory here is pretty straightforward: A Russian- supporting candidate leveraged TikTok to build surprising momentum in Romania’s presidential election. The results were controversial enough to get thrown out. And now Romania wants to make sure this never happens again by… well, by proposing content moderation rules that seem designed to ensure no social platform will ever operate in Romania again. * § Windows TCO / Windows Bot Nets⠀➾ o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Cyberattack_on_nonprofit_affects_over_500k_PA school_workers⠀⇛ The nonprofit, which represents more than 178,000 education professionals in the US state of Pennsylvania, confirmed data was stolen during a July 6 attack. According to The Office of the Maine Attorney General, the breach affected a total of 517,487 people. o ⚓ The Record ☛ Poisoned_Windows_shortcuts_found_to_be_a_favorite_of Chinese,_Russian,_N._Korean_state_hackers⠀⇛ Researchers at the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) said they have identified multiple campaigns exploiting the bug — which affects Windows shortcuts, or .lnk files — going back to 2017. § Security⠀➾ * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ IBM_urges_quick_patching_of_critical_AIX_bugs_•_The Register⠀⇛ * § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ o ⚓ Atlantic Council ☛ As_Chinese_EVs_threaten_to_overrun_Europe, Germany_should_ramp_up_supply-chain_investment⠀⇛ What Europe will do is still up in the air. It must balance economic needs, climate goals, commercial and security risks from Chinese-made and internet-connected vehicles, and increasingly unpredictable ties with the United States. To resolve this EV dilemma, one option is for Germany, Europe’s largest economy, to tap its considerable fiscal space and undertake transformational investments in defense, EV supply chains, and other infrastructure. It wouldn’t take this leap alone; several northern European countries could join in this effort. o ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ House_Democrat_wants_to_modernize_privacy_law in_light_of_DOGE_[sic]_data_access⠀⇛ Rep. Lori Trahan, D-Mass., said in a press release that she is beginning an effort to reform the Privacy Act, which has been cited in various lawsuits against agencies over allegedly allowing unauthorized DOGE [sic] staffers to access data that could contain personally identifiable information. “Unaccountable billionaires, inexperienced programmers and unvetted political appointees are perpetrating the biggest government privacy scandal since Watergate,” Trahan said in the release. o ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ Encrypted_Messaging_Apps_Promise Privacy._Government_Transparency_Is_Often_the_Price⠀⇛ States and cities across the country are grappling with how to stay on the right side of government transparency laws as the use of encrypted messaging apps becomes more widespread o ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ Congress_should_re-up_2015_information-sharing law,_top_Hill_staffer_says⠀⇛ The 2015 Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Act is due to lapse at the end of September. It provides defenses against lawsuits for companies sharing threat information, antitrust law exemptions and more. o ⚓ 404 Media ☛ Facial_Recognition_Company_Clearview_Attempted_to_Buy Social_Security_Numbers_and_Mugshots_for_its_Database⠀⇛ Clearview AI spent nearly a million dollars in a bid to purchase “690 million arrest records and 390 million arrest photos” from all 50 states, court records reveal. o ⚓ Michael Tsai ☛ Alexa_Removing_“Do_Not_Send_Voice_Recordings” Feature⠀⇛ I was not aware of this feature, but it turns out that my Echo Dot supports it. As far as I can tell, recent versions of Siri already do this on iPhone—HomePod presumably doesn’t have enough processing power—sending only transcripts of the text to Apple. An ongoing issue is that many of these requests seem like they could be processed locally but are instead sent to Apple. o ⚓ Krebs On Security ☛ DOGE_[sic]_to_Fired_CISA_Staff:_Email_Us_Your Personal_Data⠀⇛ A message posted on Monday to the homepage of the U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is the latest exhibit in the Trump administration’s continued disregard for basic cybersecurity protections. The message instructed recently-fired CISA employees to get in touch so they can be rehired and then immediately placed on leave, asking employees to send their Social Security number or date of birth in a password-protected email attachment — presumably with the password needed to view the file included in the body of the email. o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Amazon_kills_off_on-device_Alexa_processing_for Echo_owners⠀⇛ Amazon hasn't formally announced the change, and the help page for the feature still makes no mention of the March 28 deprecation. But the [Internet] souk confirmed to The Register that emails to users about the update, which caused a stir on social media over the weekend, are indeed legit. o ⚓ The Record ☛ The_Citizen_Lab’s_director_dissects_spyware_and_the ‘proliferating’_market_for_it⠀⇛ Deibert, who has been a leader in putting the rapidly growing spyware problem on the map, is the author of the new book “Chasing Shadows: Cyber Espionage, Subversion and the Global Fight for Democracy,” which chronicles his longtime battle against commercial surveillance technologies. In an interview with Recorded Future News, Deibert discussed his book’s fly-on-the-wall account of the evolution of spyware and how to detect it. He details the technical aspects of the Citizen Lab’s methods, why there is almost certainly spyware being used that hasn’t yet been discovered and how spyware companies continue to evolve to evade detection. This conversation has been edited for length and clarity. § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ * ⚓ KJZZ Radio ☛ Bernie_Sanders,_AOC_will_bring_'Fighting_Oligarchy'_tour to_Mullett_Arena_in_Tempe⠀⇛ In tearing into Trump's seizure of power and warning about the consequences of firing tens of thousands of government workers, Sanders is bucking the wishes of those who want Democrats to focus on the price of eggs or “roll over and play dead.” For now, at least, Sanders stands alone as the only elected progressive willing to mount a national campaign to harness the fear and anger of the sprawling anti-Trump movement. * ⚓ Fortune ☛ Bernie_Sanders_is_launching_a_one-man_resistance_tour_against Trump:_'You_look_around—who_else_is_doing_it?_No_one'_|_Fortune⠀⇛ * ⚓ Futurism ☛ Former_NASA_Astronaut_Says_Elon_Musk_Has_No_Idea_What_He's Talking_About⠀⇛ "As I’ve always said... space travel is not trivial, and so what we need to do next is, we’re going to retire the International Space Station, invest that — that operational money in developing a lunar base where technologies that are needed to go to Mars need to be developed and tested and proved, because right now, there’s too many technical hurdles," Hernández said. * ⚓ Defense News ☛ China_demonstrated_‘satellite_dogfighting,’_Space_Force general_says⠀⇛ A top Space Force general said Tuesday that commercial systems have observed Chinese satellites rehearsing “dogfighting” maneuvers in low Earth orbit — the U.S. adversary’s latest show of tactical and technological advancement in space capabilities. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ 5_Eyes_'not_completely'_able_to_fill_US_intel_sharing void⠀⇛ If the United States stopped sharing cyber-threat intel with Ukraine, its European allies and the rest of the Five Eyes nations wouldn't be able to provide all the info Uncle Sam collects, according to former chief of US Cyber Command and the NSA General Paul Nakasone. * ⚓ The Local SE ☛ EXPLAINED:_How_will_Sweden's_school_smartphone_ban work?⠀⇛ The ban is proposed to cover all schools that are part of compulsory education (with pupils between the ages of 6 and 16 years old). This will include the preschool class, elementary school, or grundskolan, compulsory school for pupils with intellectual disabilities (anpassade grundskolan), compulsory special needs schools (specialskolan) and Sami schools (sameskolan). It will also include the after-school activities (fritidshemmet) departments hosted at these schools. * ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Casual_White_House_Starlink_Use_Is_A_Cybersecurity Nightmare,_A_Transparency_Problem,_And_A_Weird_Marketing_Stunt⠀⇛ Now there’s reporting out of the New York Times suggesting that Musk is casually integrating Starlink systems into the White House telecom network for no coherent reason outside of the fact it gives the illusion that it’s helping: [...] * ⚓ New York Times ☛ Elon_Musk’s_Starlink_Expands_Across_White_House Complex⠀⇛ But the circumstances are different from any previous situation to resolve [Internet] services. Mr. Musk, who is now an unpaid adviser working as a “special government employee” at the White House, controls Starlink and other companies that have regulatory matters before or contracts with the federal government. Questions about his business interests conflicting with his status as a presidential adviser and major Trump donor have persisted for weeks. * ⚓ Michigan Advance ☛ ‘My_dad_didn’t_go_to_war_for_nothing’:_Pentagon scrubs_Native_American_heroes_from_website⠀⇛ The Department of Defense website removed articles featuring details about the Navajo Code Talkers — Navajo men who served during World War II and used their language as a secret code in battle — along with U.S. Marine Ira Hayes from the Gila River Indian Community, who helped raise the flag during the Battle of Iwo Jima in World War II. “Navajo code has absolutely nothing to do with DEI because Navajo code was a weapon,” Navajo Code Talker Peter MacDonald said in response to the removal during an interview with the Arizona Mirror. * ⚓ USMC ☛ Articles_about_Navajo_Code_Talkers_removed_in_Pentagon’s_DEI purge⠀⇛ Many links that previously took viewers to informational articles about the Native American service members who used their native language as an indecipherable code to help win World War I and II were no longer accessible as of Tuesday afternoon. A Pentagon spokesperson said the department was working to rectify the situation. * ⚓ Mike Brock ☛ The_Theater_of_Appeasement⠀⇛ Vladimir Putin has “positively” responded to Trump's proposal by agreeing to halt strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure for 30 days. Notice what's absent from this magnanimous concession: any mention of civilian apartment buildings, hospitals, schools, or military operations. The bombing may continue—just not the power plants. For now. * ⚓ The Cyber Show ☛ Trouble_at_Mill:_Layer_10_and_the_new_international zero-trust_reality.⠀⇛ It's all about "Data Sovereignty" now. Europe is buzzing with programmes, initiatives, petitions, pending political bills, and soon emergency plans, imploring people to disengage with US American services. Today the Dutch government announced plans to reduce dependence on U.S. software companies - thirty years too late, but at last Europe is emerging from a dark age as vassal dependents on appallingly written insecure software and a culture of digital idiocy. * ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ Pluralistic:_You_can’t_save_an_institution_by_betraying its_mission⠀⇛ Trump and his fascist movement wont't let up on their assault against institutions that support free inquiry, care, justice and openness. Rolling over for them now will not keep you safe tomorrow. But with every betrayal, these institutions alienate more and more of the public, without whose support they are ultimately doomed.

However, before those systems arrive in late 2027, we'll first be getting Vera CPU cores and Rubin GPUs. o ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Nvidia_shows_off_Rubin_Ultra_with_600,000-Watt Kyber_racks_and_infrastructure,_coming_in_2027⠀⇛ Nvidia showed off a mockup of its future Rubin Ultra GPUs with the NVL576 Kyber racks and infrastructure at GTC 2025. These are intended to ship in the second half of 2027, more than two years away, and yet, as an AI infrastructure company, Nvidia is already well on its way to planning how we get from where we are today to where it wants us to be in a few years. That future includes GPU servers that are so powerful that they consume up to 600kW per rack. o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ UK_council_says_freak_IT_outage_didn’t_lead_to data_loss⠀⇛ "The power outage subsequently impacted the council's central datacenter, which houses computing and networking equipment for the whole council, " the statement went on to say.

The announcement initially boosted prices but also raised concerns within the Federal Reserve, which cannot legally hold [cryptocurrency] assets. o ⚓ The Moscow Times ☛ Only_Rich_People_Should_Be_Allowed_to_Use Cryptocurrency,_Russian_Central_Bank_Says_-_The_Moscow_Times⠀⇛ While private individuals are already prohibited from using [cryptocurrency] for payments, ownership is not banned, and the government has permitted limited use in international transactions under an experimental legal framework. The issue of cryptocurrency use has gained importance following the imposition of Western financial sanctions in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. o ⚓ The Moscow Times ☛ Can_[Cryptocurrency]_Help_Russia_Beat_Western Sanctions?⠀⇛ Russia’s first objective is to leverage its low energy costs to expand its crypto-mining industry. o ⚓ Futurism ☛ Tesla_Competitor_Reveals_Electric_Car_That_Can_Charge in_Five_Minutes⠀⇛ Yesterday, the Shenzhen-based corporation revealed a lineup of cars it claims can soak up nearly 250 miles' worth of battery charge in just five minutes — just a hair longer than the time it takes to pump a traditional car full of gasoline. The buzzy new tech will be available next month in BYD's flashy new Han L sedan. o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Datacenter_vacancies_sink_to_2.6%_with_no rescue_in_sight⠀⇛ "The only alternative is [self hosting]," Batson told us in an interview.

Compared to previous generations at the same ages, these cohorts have fewer children, and they are less likely to say they intend to have children. Unless their plans change, trends toward lower fertility are likely to continue for the next 10-20 years. o ⚓ The Independent UK ☛ World’s_population_may_actually_be_vastly undercounted,_study_claims⠀⇛ However, research, published in the journal Nature Communications, found that rural populations in these estimates could be undercounted anywhere between 53 per cent to 84 per cent over the study period between 1975 and 2010. § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ * ⚓ Hindustan Times ☛ Microsoft_replaces_its_chief_people_officer_to rethink_performance_reviews:_Report⠀⇛ Kathleen Hogan will be replaced by Amy Coleman, a Microsoft HR executive who had worked in the company for 25 years. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Ubuntu_25.10_plans_to_swap_GNU_coreutils_for_Rust⠀⇛ The next version of Ubuntu, 25.04 "Plucky Puffin," isn't here yet – but a significant change is taking shape for the release after that, which will be 25.10. That is when Canonical and friends will replace the current core utilities – from the GNU project and implemented in C – with the newer uutils suite, which is written in Rust. * ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ How_DHS_is_working_to_continually_improve_the Continuous_Diagnostics_and_Mitigation_program⠀⇛ First launched in 2013, the program is now tracking approximately 6.5 million devices, which includes operational technology and internet-connected devices alongside traditional IT assets, and mobile devices. * ⚓ Unmitigated Risk ☛ Cloud’s_Accelerated_Evolution:_Lessons_from Telecom’s_Century_of_Change⠀⇛ What took the telecommunications industry a century to experience—the full evolution from groundbreaking innovation to commoditized utility status—cloud computing is witnessing in just 15 years. This unprecedented compression isn’t merely faster; it represents a significant strategic challenge to cloud providers who believe their operational expertise remains a durable competitive advantage. The historical parallel is instructive, yet nuanced. While telecom’s path offers warnings, cloud providers still maintain substantial advantages through their physical infrastructure investments and service ecosystems. * ⚓ Tech Central (South Africa) ☛ Google_agrees_to_buy_security_vendor_Wiz for_$32-billion⠀⇛ The price tag is much higher than the roughly $23-billion Google had offered for Wiz last year before antitrust worries forced the start-up to shelve the deal. * ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ Google_acquires_Wiz_for_$32_billion⠀⇛ The move pairs Google — among the world’s largest cloud service providers — with one of the most promising cloud security startups. The purchase comes less than a year after Wiz rejected a previous $23 billion bid from Google, with executives saying at the time that they hoped to take the company public. * ⚓ CBC ☛ Google_to_buy_cybersecurity_firm_Wiz_for_$32B_US_in_company's biggest_ever_deal⠀⇛ Wiz, a five-year-old startup founded by four longtime friends who met in the Israeli army when they were still teenagers, is on track for an estimated $1 billion US in revenue this year.

With far-right prime minister Prime Minister Viktor Orbán's Fidesz having a two- thirds majority, the legislation passed with ease. Members of the liberal Momentum Party ignited colorful smoke bombs as a sign of protest. The bill criminalizes the organization and attendance of events deemed to breach Hungary’s controversial “child protection” law that bans the so-called “promotion or depiction” of homosexuality to anyone under the age of 18.  * ⚓ RFA ☛ Hong_Kong_‘monitoring_social_media’_under_year-old_security_law⠀⇛ In the year since Hong Kong passed its “Article 23” legislation, national security police have hauled in the friends of a pro-democracy activist in Taiwan over comments he made on social media, and are increasingly monitoring people’s social control media interactions. * ⚓ Task And Purpose ☛ Soldier_featured_in_movie_'Glory'_scrubbed_from Pentagon_website⠀⇛ A Black soldier who was awarded the Medal of Honor at the Civil War battle retold as the finale of the 1989 movie “Glory” has been scrubbed from a Pentagon website, with an article on the soldier labeled as “DEI” in the now-broken web link. * ⚓ Air Force Times ☛ Air_Force_purges_photos,_websites_on_pioneering female_pilots⠀⇛ Air Force Times identified at least a dozen pages on the WWII- era Women’s Airforce Service Pilots, or WASPs, and retired Maj.

Unilever bought Ben & Jerry’s in 2000. At the time, it was agreed that an independent council would remain in place to protect the brand’s social values. However, Ben & Jerry’s and Unilever have had numerous conflicts about these issues since that time. * ⚓ BBC ☛ Ben_&_Jerry's_claims_Unilever_ousted_its_boss_over_political activism⠀⇛ The filing with the US District Court for the Southern District of New York said Unilever had "repeatedly threatened Ben & Jerry's personnel, including CEO David Stever, should they fail to comply with Unilever's efforts to silence the social mission". Ben & Jerry's has long been known for taking a public stance on social issues since it was founded in 1978 by Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield. * ⚓ Techdirt ☛ Unilever_Turns_On_Ben_&_Jerry’s_CEO_As_It_Tries_To_Lick Trump_Administration’s_Boots⠀⇛ That puts companies like Ben & Jerry’s, famous for its social stances, in a tough spot. The company has not been shy about criticizing the Trump team, going all the way back to the first administration. Nor has it been shy about taking moral stances on conflicts around the world, with one such stance notably resulting in some level of backing from its parent company, Unilever. * ⚓ Brattleboro Reformer, Vermont ☛ Ben_&_Jerry's_alleges_parent_company Unilever_removed_its_CEO_over_social_activism_|_Ap_|_reformer.com⠀⇛ In a federal court filing late Tuesday, Ben & Jerry’s said Unilever informed its board on March 3 that it was removing and replacing Ben & Jerry’s CEO David Stever. Ben & Jerry’s said that violated its merger agreement with Unilever, which states that any decisions regarding a CEO’s removal must come after a consultation with an advisory committee from Ben & Jerry’s board. * ⚓ BIA Net ☛ Turkey_restricts_social_media_amid_crackdown_on_İstanbul mayor⠀⇛ Major platforms, including YouTube, Instagram, X, and TikTok, as well as messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal, have been subjected to bandwidth throttling, significantly slowing down access.

Today, we need a new Free Speech Movement—and not just a retread of the 1960s. A new free speech movement would recognize that both the direct authoritarian power-grabs of the Trump administration, and the power grabs of private monopolist entities represent a significant danger.Trump’s oligarchs—his big tech allies who control the flow of news and information—are themselves an independent threat to open society. * ⚓ RFA ☛ He_escaped_China._Harassment_followed_him_to_a_New_York courtroom⠀⇛ China and other authoritarian regimes “are using frivolous lawsuits in U.S. courts to impose financial and psychological costs on dissidents,” said Diego A. Zambrano, a legal scholar at Stanford University who has studied similar cases involving Turkey, Venezuela and Russia. He told RFA, “The Chinese government has been one of the worst offenders.” RFA Investigative reviewed hundreds of pages of legal filings from the U.S. and China and spoke with legal experts and former law enforcement officials in both countries. Many raised concerns with Beijing’s latest strategy to quell criticism. § Freedom of Information / Freedom of the Press⠀➾ * ⚓ [Old] Salon ☛ Paul_Krugman_ridicules_GOP_for_believing_"facts_have_a liberal_bias"⠀⇛ In his latest column for the New York Times, Nobel prize- winning economist and liberal champion Paul Krugman argues that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's recent claim that Republicans are to thank for the improving economy is just another example of the GOP's "epistemic closure" and belief "that facts have a liberal bias." * ⚓ [Old] American University School of Communication ☛ NPR_CEO_warns_of ‘hostile_environment’_ahead_for_journalism_-_Current⠀⇛ “We are likely to face a difficult and potentially hostile environment for journalists and journalism,” she said. “The president-elect has made comments to this effect, threatening the press corps and invoking the potential of utilizing investigatory and regulatory power against media organizations.” * ⚓ CPJ ☛ Media_rights,_journalist_groups_call_on_US_to_protect_press freedom_after_USAGM_gutted⠀⇛ * ⚓ RFERL ☛ Radio_Free_Europe_Sues_Overseer_USAGM_To_Block_Termination_Of Federal_Grant⠀⇛ Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL)said it has sued the United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM), along with USAGM officials Kari Lake and Victor Morales, to block their attempt to terminate RFE/RL’s federal grant, which provides the broadcaster with funds to operate. The complaint, filed on March 18, argues that denying the funds Congress has appropriated for RFE/RL violates federal laws and the US Constitution, which gives Congress exclusive authority over federal spending. * ⚓ Washingon-Baltimore News Guild ☛ Radio_Free_Asia_forced_to_furlough_75% of_its_staff_due_to_funding_freeze_-_Washington-Baltimore_News_Guild⠀⇛ Under the Guild’s contract with RFA, furloughs are not permitted — instead, RFA would be required to immediately lay off employees with severance. However, layoffs would be permanent, eliminating the possibility of affected employees returning if funding is restored. * ⚓ International Business Times ☛ 'Bloody_Saturday':_Trump_Shuts_Down_US Government-Funded_Broadcasters,_Sparking_Free_Press_Fears⠀⇛ The shutdown follows a broader initiative to dismantle federal agencies, with the United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM)—which oversees VOA, RFA, and RFE—being among those dissolved.

But this time, it was my editor, Jessica Jerreat, and I who reached out to sound the alarm. I wasn’t acting in an official capacity—in fact, I had been ordered not to work—but I felt I had to do something. Dozens of VOA staffers in Washington are on J-1 visas, and if they lose them, they may have to return to countries whose governments have a record of jailing critics. Two VOA contributors are imprisoned in Myanmar and Vietnam, and I didn’t want them to be forgotten. * ⚓ Axios ☛ Radio_Free_Europe_sues_Trump_admin,_Kari_Lake_over_funds termination⠀⇛ What they're saying: "This is not the time to cede terrain to the propaganda and censorship of America's adversaries," said Stephen Capus, president and CEO of RFE/RL. * ⚓ ABC ☛ Trump_silencing_VOA_threatens_free_media_in_repressive_countries, advocates_say⠀⇛ Trump’s executive order also terminated grants for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Radio Free Asia, which broadcast news to Eastern Europe, Russia, China and North Korea and Central Asia. The order threatens to close down media organizations that for decades have provided independent news coverage and promoted journalism to hundreds of millions of people worldwide and provided an information lifeline to people living in countries under authoritarian regimes, advocates say. * ⚓ Los Angeles Times ☛ Voice_of_America_has_fallen_silent._U.S._enemies are_cheering⠀⇛ This week, for the first time since it started operations in 1942, the VOA is almost entirely silent. Viewers and listeners primarily hear canned music or see a screen that simply says “VOA will serve as a consistently reliable and authoritative source of news.” * ⚓ [Old] Inside Radio ☛ DOGE_[sic]_Targeting_VOA_And_Radio_Free_Europe.⠀⇛ Additionally, a bill has been introduced in Congress that would specifically prohibit federal funding for National Public Radio. The proposed No More Funding for NPR Act of 2025 would not only cut off future funding of NPR but also require that any money that had earlier been allocated but not yet been spent be permanently rescinded. * ⚓ teleSUR ☛ U.S._Judge_Rules_Musk's_USAID_Cuts_Likely_Unconstitutional⠀⇛ DOGE [sic]’s fast-moving destruction of USAID likely harmed the public interest by depriving elected lawmakers of their “constitutional authority to decide whether, when and how to close down an agency created by Congress,” ruled the judge. * ⚓ RFERL ☛ Judge_Bars_DOGE_[sic]_From_Further_Dismantling_Of_USAID,_Says Move_Likely_Unconstitutional⠀⇛ "Today’s decision is an important victory against Elon Musk and his DOGE [sic] attack on USAID, the US government, and the Constitution,” said Norm Eisen, head of the State Democracy Defenders Fund and a lawyer representing the 26 anonymous plaintiffs in the suit. § Civil Rights/Policing⠀➾ * ⚓ EFF ☛ EFF’s_Reflections_from_RightsCon_2025 ⠀⇛ EFF was delighted to once again attend RightsCon—this year hosted in Taipei, Taiwan between 24-27 February. As with previous years, RightsCon provided an invaluable opportunity for human rights experts, technologists, activists, and government representatives to discuss pressing human rights challenges and their potential solutions. * ⚓ Paul Krugman ☛ Smears,_Sadism_and_Social_Security⠀⇛ Why do this? The alleged justification is to combat fraud. But ProPublica has acquired audio of a closed meeting held with Leland Dudek, the Social Security Administration’s acting administrator, in which he acknowledged that fraudulent benefit claims are not, in fact, a serious problem. So what the Musk is going on here? This plan would save some money, not by eliminating fraud, but by effectively cutting off aid to Americans who are legally entitled to that aid, and specifically those who need it most. But I don’t think the savings are the point. * ⚓ The Guardian UK ☛ I’m_the_Canadian_who_was_detained_by_Ice_for_two weeks._It_felt_like_I_had_been_kidnapped⠀⇛ That would be the response to nearly every question I would ask over the next two weeks: “I don’t know.” * ⚓ Axios ☛ Department_of_Defense_restores_Jackie_Robinson_webpage_after outcry⠀⇛ "On July 6, 1944, Robinson boarded an Army bus. The driver ordered Robinson to move to the back of the bus, but Robinson refused," the article states. It was still accessible on the Internet Archive website before the DOD reposted it. "The driver called the military police, who took Robinson into custody. He was subsequently court martialed, but he was acquitted." * ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ The_art_of_freedom_in_Iran⠀⇛ An investigative report on Iran ordered by the United Nations Human Rights Council was delivered on Tuesday and it paints a picture of a theocratic government very much afraid of its own people. Aerial drones fly overhead to spot women without mandatory head covering. Facial recognition cameras look for dissidents in universities. An increase in executions of protesters has turned Iran into the world’s highest per capita user of the death penalty. * ⚓ Michał Sapka ☛ I_stopped_writing_alt-text_to_most_images_here⠀⇛ It’s all crap. We are not only doing it wrong, but also may not need to do it at all. I have a 0/0 (or as USA calls it 20/20) vision, so it’s hard to imagine what it’s like to browse the web with poor eyesight, but to surprise of everyone, people who have such problems have created guidelines. § Internet Policy/Net Neutrality⠀➾ * ⚓ Vox ☛ Trump’s_firings_at_the_FTC_watchdog_agency,_explained⠀⇛ The president removed all democrats from the Federal Trade Commission’s board. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Trump_fires_two_remaining_Democrat_FTC commissioners⠀⇛ Trump axed Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Slaughter, leaving the regulator with just two commissioners instead of its usual five. The remaining commissioners - chairman Andrew Ferguson and Melissa Holyoak – are both Republicans who have previously articulated positions that suggest change could come to policy on four matters of interest to the tech community: Non-compete agreements; the right to repair; regulation of social media companies; and mergers. § Digital Restrictions (DRM)⠀➾ * ⚓ YLE ☛ Finnish_Air_Force_commander_dismisses_concerns_over_F-35_'kill switch'⠀⇛ He expressed confidence that the United States and Lockheed Martin would ensure the operational capability of Finland’s F- 35 fleet in all circumstances, given the decades-long partnership. He also noted that all modern weapons systems, including those used in Europe, contain software components primarily originating from the United States. § Monopolies/Monopsonies⠀➾ * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ EC_says_Google,_Apple_in_violation_of_DMA_gatekeeper rules⠀⇛ A year after kicking off its probe into three American tech giants, the European Union has fired off two sets of preliminary findings accusing Google parent Alphabet of failing to comply with Europe's monopoly-busting Digital Markets Act (DMA). Last March, the European Commission opened formal investigations into Google, Apple, and Meta to assess their compliance with the DMA. Google is the first to take a hit. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Apple_ordered_by_EU_antitrust_regulators_to_open_up_to rivals⠀⇛ Apple was ordered by EU antitrust regulators on Wednesday to open up its closed ecosystem to rivals, with the latter spelling out details on how to go about it in line with the bloc's landmark rules and where non-compliance could lead to an investigation and fines. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Google_hit_with_two_charges_under_landmark_EU_rules, risks_fines⠀⇛ Google has been in the European Commission's crosshairs since March last year over whether it restricts app developers from informing users about offers outside its app store Google Play and whether it favours its vertical search services such as Google Flights. * ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ EU_finds_Apple,_Google_breached_DMA_antitrust_rules⠀⇛ The European Commission, the EU’s executive arm, published its decision today. Officials have ordered Apple to change a number of iOS features that were found to run afoul of the DMA. The EU’s antitrust findings about Google, in turn, are preliminary, which means the search giant has not yet been instructed to change any business practices. The DMA, or Digital Markets Act, is an antitrust law that passed in 2022. It’s designed to regulate large tech firms that receive “gatekeeper” status from the European Commission. Apple and Google received that designation about a year after the DMA went into effect. * ⚓ Android Police ☛ YouTube_videos_looking_blurry?_You're_not_alone⠀⇛ YouTube has shared through its support website that it is aware of an issue where some streams are occurring at 144p or 360p, despite having a strong internet connection. For most, this is going to result in a blurry picture that can't really be enjoyed. While users would normally just beef up the quality to 1080p or higher, it appears that making that change causes the video to buffer. * ⚓ Macworld ☛ EU_orders_Apple_to_open_up_iOS_connectivity_features⠀⇛ With the Digital Markets Act adopted in 2022, the European Union has identified Apple’s iOS (as well as other companies’ products) as “Gatekeepers” that have such a stranglehold on the market that they should be required to comply with certain rules about interoperability and openness to competing software and services. * ⚓ European Commission ☛ Digital_Markets_Act⠀⇛ Today, the European Commission adopted two decisions under the Digital Markets Act (DMA) specifying the measures that Apple has to take to comply with certain aspects of its interoperability obligation. Interoperability enables a deeper and more seamless integration of third-party products with Apple's ecosystem. Interoperability is therefore key to opening up new possibilities for third parties to develop innovative products and services on Apple's gatekeeper platforms. As a result, a wider choice of products will be available to consumers in Europe which are compatible with their Apple devices. The Commission is assisting Apple in its compliance by detailing the measures needed for enabling interoperability with iOS for third-party connected devices and by streamlining the process put in place by Apple to handle future requests for interoperability with iPhone and iPad devices. * ⚓ Semafor Inc ☛ Google-Wiz_deal_is_a_$32_billion_natsec_gamble⠀⇛ The renewed deal will be a test for Trump’s regulators, who have so far sounded every bit as skeptical of corporate consolidation as Biden’s. The Justice Department earlier this month is continuing to push for a breakup of Google’s search business and the company, like much of Big Tech, has faced criticism over perceived slights against conservatives on its platforms. * ⚓ Android Police ☛ Google's_changes_to_Search_and_the_Play_Store_still fall_short_for_the_EU⠀⇛ Back in 2017, Google landed in hot water when the European Commission hit it with a massive €2.42 billion fine for unfairly promoting its own shopping services over competitors in search results. That wasn’t the end of the story, though. Regulators have been keeping a close eye on Google ever since, and now, the tech giant is under fire again. This time, the EU is accusing Google of breaking two major rules, reigniting its ongoing battle with European regulators. * § Copyrights⠀➾ o ⚓ Deseret Media ☛ Miley_Cyrus_must_face_lawsuit_over_claims_she copied_Bruno_Mars_hit⠀⇛ Tempo is unaffiliated with Mars, who is not involved in the lawsuit. o ⚓ Techdirt ☛ YouTube_Apparently_Unsure_If_Shakespeare_Is_In_The Public_Domain⠀⇛ This extraordinary saga of takedown notices for performances of Shakespeare show that 27 years after it was passed, the DMCA is still not fit for purpose. The companies like Google that are tasked with implementing it often do so in the most desultory way. There is an underlying assumption that claimed infringements are valid, an injustice compound by an arrogant indifference to the rights of ordinary citizens who find themselves caught up in a complex copyright system that is stacked against them. o ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Piracy_Shield:_New_Technical_&_Operational Requirements_For_2025⠀⇛ Within thirty minutes of receiving notification of a blocking order, they will be required to “adopt all technical measures useful for hindering the visibility of the illegal content,” including in any case, “the de- indexing from search engines of the domain names subject to AGCOM’s blocking orders, including the domain names subject to the reports made via Piracy Shield. o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ US_appeals_court_says_AI_authors_don't_qualify for_copyright⠀⇛ The US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has affirmed a lower court ruling that content created by an AI model without human input cannot be copyrighted. o ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Court_rules_copyrighting_AI-generated_art_is_a no-go_-_even_if_you_invented_the_software⠀⇛ A U.S. federal appeals court today ruled that art created solely by artificial intelligence cannot be granted copyright protection. o ⚓ Techdirt ☛ California’s_A.B._412:_A_Bill_That_Could_Crush Startups_And_Cement_A_Big_Tech_AI_Monopoly⠀⇛ California legislators have begun debating a bill (A.B. 412) that would require AI developers to track and disclose every registered copyrighted work used in AI training. At first glance, this might sound like a reasonable step toward transparency. But it’s an impossible standard that could crush small AI startups and developers while giving big tech firms even more power. o ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Supreme_Court_Asked_to_Resolve_ISP's_Copyright Piracy_Conundrum⠀⇛ Can [Internet] service providers be held liable for pirating subscribers? Internet provider Grande Communications asked the Supreme Court to review this key question. With no clear standards for handling copyright infringement notices, [Internet] service providers are caught between a rock and a hard place, Grande argues. In its petition, the ISP highlights the need to resolve the "scattershot" approach to ISP liability, seeking a more defined and workable solution. o ⚓ Torrent Freak ☛ Europol_Predicts_Drop_in_Online_Piracy,_Contrary to_New_Data⠀⇛ Europol's latest organized crime threat assessment predicts that online piracy services will face a drop in demand. This conclusion appears to rely on data that's already five years old and predates the EU streaming boom. Can old statistics accurately reflect today's piracy trends? Not necessarily, as newer data suggest a significant reversal. * Techrights_Will_Never_Capitulate_to_Threats_From_Microsofters * Gemini_Links_20/03/2025:_Ubuntu_Shafting_Common_Sense_and_Blocking_of Bots_of_the_Net ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 6015 ➮ Generation completed at 02:49, i.e. 11 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
