We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. https://signal.org/blog/pdfs/germany-chat-control.pdf
We are watching a new kind of misinformation creep in: bogus quotes invented by sloppy AI assisted reporting. EFF caught multiple outlets attributing fake statements to their staff, and one even cited a person who does not exist. The editor at one site owned it and called it AI slop. The fix is boring but real: verify the quote, verify the link, then publish.
TL;DR
📰 Fake EFF quotes showed up across several outlets
🤖 Editor blamed AI slop and apologized
🔎 Verify quotes and links before you share
🛡️ Newsrooms need written policies and human checks

Ask yourself, at any given moment: AM I SHARING MY LOCATION WITH FASCISTS?
That should stop you cold.
STOP SHARING YOUR LOCATION WITH FASCISTS.
STOP SHARING ANY AND ALL OF YOUR DATA WITH FASCISTS.
That is the goal. Try to get there.
- Stop using Google services and Chrome
- Stop using META sites
- Email is generally not secure. Assume that unless you use PGP or a service like Tuta.
We have to make real efforts here. Don't give up. Help others. Our #privacy and #security are intertwined.

- Use a reputable VPN as much as possible
- Use Signal for your phone calls
- Consider a VOIP service like MYSUDO For $3 you can get a phone line, $5 get's you 3 lines. Use those over wifi instead of your cell phone. VOIP calls via a mobile hotspot are likely more secure than standard cell phone calls. You're still using a cell tower but you've got some added protection.
We need a new practice and culture of personal, digital and communications #security and #privacy. Help create that.
- If you have Location Services turned on, turn it off. All of it not just per app.
- Stop using SMS, Apple Messages, or any other. Switch to Signal for ALL messaging.
- Stop messaging with folks that won't use Signal
- Treat your cell phone like a last resort device rather than the favorite device you check all day everyday.
- Put your phone in Airplane mode and keep it there.
- Delete every app that is not essential. Use websites where possible...
A lot of us having been using the word fascism or similar to describe what's going on in the US. We see the power that is being given to ICE, see link as one example. The admin is not hiding how it wants to use the military.
You may not think yourself a target yet but if you have publicly shared the "wrong" views you should assume that eventually, they'll get around to you.
Begin protecting your privacy now. Go to "extreme" measures.
