If you lock the stall door while you go to the bathroom, you should also encrypt your data, for the same reason.

Ok Fediverse. I see you.

How many of you have actually *muted* the #DisabilityPrideMonth tag and won’t even see this?

W3C is working on a charter for a Privacy Working Group
“The mission of the Privacy Working Group will be to improve privacy on the Web both by advising groups developing standards on how to avoid and mitigate privacy issues with Web technologies and by standardizing mechanisms that improve user privacy on the Web.” A formal AC Review is expected in August

I would strongly recommend all #Mastoadmin apply patches for #CVE202336460 #TootRoot – i.e. get to the latest release.

I’ve done some surveying and a significant percentage of instances haven’t patched, and this one is very likely to see in the wild exploitation.

Widespread exploitation across many instances is as simple as sending a single toot.

Here’s a quote from a YouTube video I heard earlier today. ‘In the modern age of the internet, we live by the motto that if something is online, it stays there. But the truth is that our creations are bound, sooner or later, to be cast into obscurity and forgotten’. Truer words were never spoken, and that’s why, if you come across any you and/or others find valuable, I very strongly urge you to back it up and archive it anywhere you can, in as many places you can, be it OneDrive, Dropbox, the Internet Archive or your own website or file storage server. Let’s work together to fight #DataRot and preserve as much of our online creations and discoveries as we possibly can! #data #archival #backup #preservation #DataArchival #DataBackup #DataPreservation
