That presenter needs to read the article I linked.

He claims fax has zero reliability due to "dog can eat the fax" (in a despirate grasp for straws) & "paper out".

I'm not convinced that running out of paper leads to a "success" ack & also lost data when paper is refilled. If it's true then it has merit but still nothing like the astronomical list of email reliability problems.

@onepict @sjvn @onepict I recall a time/place when someone could buy a Windows box and then "return" the OS and get the royalties refunded. I wonder if that's still an option anywhere. It was a glimpse in time that it happened & I've not heard about it since.

@onepict
If it really would drive ppl off the platform, it could be a good thing.

Glad to hear it. I can't see the toots or follower list or anything so I couldn't tell.

Stop thinking you need . When Microsoft acquired LinkedIn that was the time to bail. There are plenty of ways to distribute a CV.

The only thing LinkedIn has going for it is re-connecting to old colleagues who you lost touch with. But do you want to be the bait by which MS forces past friends to give up their ph#? Not worth it.

WTF is Jacob Appelbaum (@TorProject) doing on gab.com? Is that an imposter or parody joke? Surely Jake knows that's a instance popular among rt wing nutters.

OTOH, there is that unfortunate parallel between /Assange & US republican ideology.

@rob@fosstodon.org
Since you're in & is a US org focused on US policy, it might make more sense to join @torproject (Germany). EFF & Tor are tightly integrated (I hear).

Would be interesting to know if there is a more EFF-like org for the .

We're gonna need a bit more context here. Does your job entail watching or something?

@rysiek
Just noticed your original post. A good option for lowtech users used to be since non-HM users could do all the key management. Now that HM has a cost that I usually can't impose on others, I often pimp (& thus ). It's worse than HM but it's a sad state of affairs these days. Anything else becomes too challenging for normies.

@grimmware @rysiek @kensanata I took the hard-ass approach b/c I felt that by complying with corporate greed and control I then become a supporter of it. Refusing to be part of the problem means running my own MX & refusing to correspond w/ @gmail and @outlook users. I've become a heavy fax user as a result. Fax is much more reliable than email.

@kensanata @grimmware @rysiek no doubt a big portion of that is connected to the spam fight, & the collateral damage from incompetent admins using w/reckless disregard.

Plz consider joining the movement:

A sensible replacement for is @codeberg & perhaps gitgud.io.

@rob@fosstodon.org @protonmail @lightmyfire@fosstodon.org since we're talking about Android, I suggest with Orweb (but I think Orweb has been renamed)
