That wobble might be the most useful moment yet.

Tech cycles always leave something valuable for those who pay attention.

💡Read Daragh's latest blog to explore what the wobble means -

At some point, the Govt has to learn that the way to keep people safe from information they might encounter isn't to prevent them ever encountering it, but to teach them how to deal with it, or how to choose to avoid it for themselves. 4/n

I think it was under-reported (ie, not reported) that we came within a hair’s breadth of implementing a complete EU surveillance state *and* undermining the security of all messaging encryption on the 12th Dec last year.

Ireland was backing Hungary’s plan to do it.

This is a really good summary of an English case about what is, ultimately, a story about critical data, security, and appropriate care and attention to said critical data.
So... Remember that guy who took Newport Council to court for £600m because he accidentally threw out the hard drive with his bitcoin private key on it?

Judge just summarily dismissed his case.

And even if you're not a lawyer, the judgement is a pretty fun read... /1
