Simplex.chat is promising, with great privacy/anonymity concepts at its core:

  • no identifyer like a phone# or an email address needed
  • little to no metadata transiting by the server
  • identity management ("incognito" identities generated in one click when joining a group for instance, management of several identities), all database/client-side.
  • works with any server, through tor by default. different servers used to send/receive messages.
  • android/ios/linux-tui/linux-desktop/macos/windows versions available
  • in Haskell, so no node/electron shtf#ckery (just a different shtf#ckery... ;)) )

do you think a company like cloudlare.com, that injects its javascript in between given site and you, will hesitate one second before transmitting its data with the FBI (or any other police), and help them tracking users down?

How is Lemmy going to make money? in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] JoeBidet@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

like the rest of the Fediverse: through ingeniosity, community and self-organization!

(understanding "make money" as "pay for its infrastructure and maybe for some dev and other of the essential work now ran by volunteers" not as "profit")

The Right to Read - A Dystopian Short Story by Richard Stallman (1996) (www.gnu.org)
 

From The Road To Tycho, a collection of articles about the antecedents of the Lunarian Revolution, published in Luna City in 2096.

For Dan Halbert, the road to Tycho began in college—when Lissa Lenz asked to borrow his computer. Hers had broken down, and unless she could borrow another, she would fail her midterm project. There was no one she dared ask, except Dan.

This put Dan in a dilemma. He had to help her—but if he lent her his computer, she might read his books. Aside from the fact that you could go to prison for many years for letting someone else read your books, the very idea shocked him at first. Like everyone, he had been taught since elementary school that sharing books was nasty and wrong—something that only pirates would do.
