I think it's great that Twitter may finally be adding end-to-end encryption for DMs, at least according to strings in leaked code for their Android app. But I have questions: First, who's going to build it, given the state of staff and who's going to ensure it's done right, given the lack of security staff? Because it would be very bad to claim end-to-end encryption only to find out that it's not actually encrypted when there's a massive data breach. #infosec #privacy

hey are you working on an #activitypub project, or thinking about #decentralized computing post bird flu? I’d love to chat with you about what you’re up to, how you find working with the spec, and gotchas that might come from annoying, in the trenches work for a potential zine or website resource for folks starting out along the path (and to give me something to write about to motivate my own exploration)
