MODERATORS
In French we have an expression "la route de l'enfer est pavé de bonnes intention".
I guess in english its " the hell's road is made with good intentions"
We have the same saying in English:
The road to Hell is paved with Good Intentions.
Oh thanks mate
No worries 👍 always happy to have cultural exchange
Goes to show, we're not that different after all.
Everyone wants to destroy the open Internet. Our own reichfuhrer has introduced C-11 which sticks the governments fingers directly into websites, and C-18 which ends the universal concept that hyperlinking is free of charge.
At the rate we're going, the free and open internet will be a memory I tell my great grandkids about, like using the analog telephone to get on the internet at 9600bps on a computer with much less computing power than my wristwatch.
yeah cause thats bullshit. no biggie, but I had a 36.6kbps modem. its nice to be elite
France is taking the lead for the fascism in the World.
We dont have the capital but we have ideas.
Right now in the EU :
EU’s Draconian Social Media Censorship Laws Are Now Officially Enforceable
EU capitals want media law carve-out to spy on reporters
Right now in France :
Criminalization of encryption : the 8 december case
We have had access to certain elements of the file confirming this information. We have chosen to make them visible in order to denounce the criminalisation of digital practices at the heart of our day-to-day work and the manipulation to which they are subjected in this affair.
Mixing fantasies, bad faith and technical incompetence, a police story has been constructed around the (good) digital practices of the accused, with the aim of staging a “clandestine” or “conspirative” group.
The elements of the investigation that have been communicated to us are staggering. Here are just some of the practices that are being misused as evidence of terrorist behavior6: – the use of applications such as Signal, WhatsApp, Wire, Silence or ProtonMail to encrypt communications ; – using Internet privacy tools such as VPN, Tor or Tails7 ; – protecting ourselves against the exploitation of our personal data by GAFAM via services such as /e/OS, LineageOS, F-Droid ; – encrypting digital media; – organizing and participating in digital hygiene training sessions; – simple possession of technical documentation.
France grants police power to spy on citizens through phones
I'll just keep living in my third world country where they are too stupid or poor to enact these dystopian policies
Oh don't worry, they'll reach you wether you like it or not
Just Internet? Browsers are client side software. It's a danger to open computing in general.
This law is written by tech illiterate old seniles that do not understand Internet. This law will be fucking pointless, it will take seconds to go past it.
