So much for end-to-end encryption! Facebook pay more than 1,000 workers to READ WhatsApp messages that are flagged as 'inappropriate' and even share them with the DOJ via dailym.ai/ios mol.im/a/9966435

This is an excellent Economist article on OSINT, including this fabulous act of self-pwn by the Chinese Government, exposing their Uyghur gulags: web.archive.org/web/2021090215

WiReD Italian coverage from 2020

Perché il Progetto Gutenberg sarà sotto sequestro per sempre - Wired

Il portale di digitalizzazione di libri resta inaccessibile al pubblico italiano. Almeno per chi non usa le vpn: storia di un sequestro poco chiaro

Incidentally, if anyone from

@gutenberg_org

wants to set up a high-availability

@torproject

Onion site, I would be delighted to offer my services, gratis.

Access to Project Gutenberg (free, out-of-copyright books) is blocked in Italy; overwhelmingly the means of censorship is DNS blocking. Elsewhere: any geeks who desire supply of *authoritative* DNS without tampered results, are invited to experiment with: github.com/alecmuffett/do

When people talk about the corrupting influence of Big Tech systematically destroying the fabric of society... just remember that Amazon - a $1.8T company - thinks that plantains are a valid substitution for bananas.

It's not that simple; the fact that the Chief Commissioner wholly ignores Apple iMessage, Apple FaceTime, WhatsApp, Telegram & Signal are all already end-to-end encrypted, demonstrates that this is a political, not practical, complaint from Government:

13/13 In order to get this, Civil Society will need to support Facebook in building End-to-End Encryption in Facebook Messenger. This will doubtless be hard for many, in light of many "hot" issues that Facebook have caused. But if we want encryption, we have to do this 1 thing.

12/ SUMMARY: We need real cryptography, to protect data, to protect users, to protect people. We need the freedom to design solutions & write code without a lawyer checking it for compliance with "legally maximum permitted privacy". We need End-to-End Encryption to be "normal".

11/ The consequences echoed in security bugs for the next 20 years, with downgrade attacks and other weaknesses brought on by this obligatory nightmare. digicert.com/blog/freak-att en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FREAK

Logjam (computer security) - Wikipedia

10/ You needed a software "key" from the Java website, to be able to use cryptography in Java. Export controls and other legal tools were employed by Governments to inhibit your ability to keep data safe, secure and private.

9/ How do I know this? Because I lived through it in the 1990s. If you want to see lingering echoes of it, go look at this page: oracle.com/uk/java/techno

8/ If this happens, a massive chill will pass over the Internet: Developers and startups will need to employ lawyers to tell them what code they may/may-not write. Architectures which strongly protect data will be avoided, in favour of ones that speculatively support snooping.
