Privacy, like security, requires technology that can be examined, reviewed, studied, vetted and modified. It's also a personal consideration

We need a full free and open technology stack: software, devices, data and society

is everything you think necessary for your personal freedom, privacy and security ( even things we have not yet created )

Texas Linux Fest cfp extended another week until January 26th at 17:00 CST ( time )

Like many other conferences, they ended up listing multiple times for the deadline. They extended due to the confusion

At last! Hopefully these proposals under consideration do become law in #Canada soon, and that countries around the world follow suit.

"Ottawa considering 'significant and meaningful' compensation for privacy breach victims"

So many firms simply don't care about personal data loss, misuse, or theft. This is grossly irresponsible. There must be strong laws to compel firms to do business ethically, and to protect the public.
