Super proud to be part of the EU Horizon proposal Social-PETs. It aims to bring privacy-enhancing tech (PETs) like homomorphic encryption and secure multiparty computation to open social networks such as #ATProto, making powerful recommender systems possible without centralised data.

Ihre Fazit: Ein autoritäres Netzwerk ist auch hier dabei den Staat zu privatisieren.

FTR the app-view is up and has been for a few weeks.
Ingesting terabytes of social media data is not trivial.
I've worked to re-implement some experimental work by Divy into rsky-ingester, rsky-backfiller, and rsky-indexer
When it's production ready, it'll move off of staging.blacksky.community
