I use mycroft as my assistant on android with a local text to speech system. I am currently working on skills to make learning about user privacy and liberation possible through queries.

Gave Mycroft app a facelift, the best thing about open source is being able to customize.

Sonic 1 was so amazing.

The act is the butchering or privacy for " ‘United States person’ means a citizen or national of the United States, an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence, an unincorporated association a substantial number of members of which are citizens of the United States or aliens lawfully admitted for permanent residence, or a corporation that is incorporated in the United States."

"International agreements provide a mechanism for resolving these potential conflicting legal obligations where the United States and the relevant foreign government share a common commitment to the rule of law and the protection of privacy and civil liberties."

Lol well in fact the CLOUD Act that was past in 2017/2018 session of Congress outlines that any organization that has American citizens in it and provides internet communications is subject to NSA letters no matter the country the organization was founded in. It was congresses answer to Microsoft V US. So no matter where incorporation is done as long as citizens are involved you face that risk.

The issue for nonprofits come with the authorization and approval process by Facebook. I worked as the lead technologist on a Green Party campaign in NY and Facebook would not allow ads because they did not recognize the small city the candidate was from. So more specifically local nonprofits and small cities will end up not being able to use Facebook ads by default with the new approval process.

So we would like to start a membership/collective aspect of our privacy nonprofit calling it the User Liberation Network with the purpose of connecting technologist and users interested in user privacy and security. Is anyone interested in assisting with organizing the organization? We already have our 501c3 here in the states so it's more about creating an organization's rules, bylaws, purpose and activities. Along with recruitment efforts and ideas.

@kravietz
Nice catch.

@kravietz
Wow so nonprofits pretty much get fucked in this equation.

I have been working with the Mycroft AI. I put it on a server and just set up all the clients to connect to that server. It also connects with openhab.
