In case you’re still unsure why it’s better to use Signal instead of WhatsApp:
And... @signal.org is every bit as user-friendly, and you’ll notice virtually no difference in day-to-day use.

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll talk about the takeover of social media by illiberal, populist influencers. For the last ten years, social media has been dominated by these voices and it is one of the main reasons for the political rise of people like Trump and Orban.

This is inaccurate. There is no known vulnerability with Signal's core tech. The memo was discussing phishing attempts, which Signal has worked to mitigate. And it was hastily reported.
It's important not to spread misinfo that can confuse people into moving away from meaningfully private comms.

In case you missed it: the Pentagon--that's Hegseth--got warned about using Signal a week ago.

Ik vroeg me af, wordt jouw lijst ook naar het Engels vertaald? Misschien is er al wel zoiets voor Amerikaanse lezers, maar ben ‘m nog niet tegengekomen. Het is ontzettend goede informatie en verdient een groter publiek, vind ik.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

Everyone should watch this video by @wired.com and @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social . It clearly explains fascism and dictatorship through key questions, showing how these systems work, their warning signs, and how to avoid their traps. Really well done.

Heel goed! Als dit van de grond komt, is het dan de bedoeling om vanuit de overheid een dienst te ontwikkelen die ook toegankelijk is voor particulieren, of sluiten jullie aan bij al bestaande clouddiensten in Europa?
