ProtonMail is different from other email providers because we can't read your emails or share them with third parties (we don't have access to the decryption keys). Here's how zero access encryption works: https://protonmail.com/blog/zero-access-encryption/

The European Parliament just passed a copyright directive containing #Article13, or the "meme ban." We are concerned about the amount of power this directive could give monopolistic tech giants, but our #VPN can always be used to access blocked content. https://protonvpn.com/blog/article-13/

Putting your phone number in online services is very risky, especially as it is often used to verify accounts AND can be spoofed quite well with sim jacking on the rise!

Be careful.

Where are other instances posts? @cassolotl@dev.glitch.social made a nice flowchart 😀

Starting to get the hang of #Mastodon. It feels a lot more relaxed than Twitter, even if the content is a bit selective. It's like drinking 1 good coffee a day instead of 4 crappy ones.

Plus, no nazi's in my coffee which is also nice.

I propose to launch a campaign called #ShareATool.

Everyone can share their favorite #opensource tool(-s) that use on a daily basis as well as other interesting tools for your opinion.

No software categories. The main requirement is that the project must be open source.

And I think I'm gonna start.

The internet has become too controlled by a single entity (ICANN), threatening our ability to truly control our content online.

OpenNIC wants to make user-controlled Top-Level Domains, and a more democratic DNS system overall. Learn more about our project at https://www.opennic.org/ 😁
