stravanasu@lemmy.cato Technology@beehaw.org•introducing copyparty, the FOSS file serverEnglish12·6 days agoIs there a link to the thing itself? Or a non-video presentation?
stravanasu@lemmy.catoLemmy.ca's Main Community@lemmy.ca•Lemmy.ca - 2 years later (image heavy!)English2·27 days agoPS: are the recurring ones per month or per year?
stravanasu@lemmy.catoLemmy.ca's Main Community@lemmy.ca•Lemmy.ca - 2 years later (image heavy!)English2·27 days agoThank you so much! If I understand correctly it’s around 80 donors, counting recurring and one-time together?
stravanasu@lemmy.catoLemmy.ca's Main Community@lemmy.ca•Lemmy.ca - 2 years later (image heavy!)English7·28 days agoCheers! Then it’d be quite cheap if every user gave their 10c/month. Let’s see what they say about actual donor-users.

Let me ask two explicit questions:
-
Considering costs and total number of users, how much should be a user’s monthly donation to keep things even or a little on the safe side?
-
Considering costs and total number of donators, how much should be a donator’s monthly donation to keep things even or a little on the safe side? This is a more realistic estimate, as there are users (say, students) who can’t pay (and of course users who simply don’t want to pay).
Many Fediverse initiatives seem too shy to give this kind of information, but I think there’s nothing wrong about it. Please tell us in time if the economy were to be going bad, nobody wants another lemm.ee event :) As Impossible Mission for the Commodore 64 used to say:
Stay awhile, stay forever!

stravanasu@lemmy.cato Privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com•The EU wants to decrypt your private data by 2030English43·28 days agoAnd since EU is effectively not based on democracy, European citizens won’t be able to stop this.
I’m sick of windows, but maybe I should just not risk messing with operating systems I don’t understand? (Also I really hope those screenshots don’t doxx me or something)
It’s a little learning curve, but don’t give up - I’m happy to see that you aren’t! Your understanding is already increasing step by step, and you’ll feel a lot of satisfaction because of this too 💪🚀

stravanasu@lemmy.cato Privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com•EU is proposing a new mass surveillance law and they are asking the public for feedbackEnglish37·2 months agoOne reported feedback there is brilliant:
At first glance, the proposed regulation might appear to be just another flawed attempt to balance security and privacy. But a closer look, especially at the High-Level Group (HLG) advice the EU cites as a foundational source, reveals something far more dangerous. Start with this: when German MEP Patrick Breyer requested the names of the individuals behind the so-called High-Level Group that drafted this sweeping proposal, the EU responded with a list where every single name was blacked out. A law that would introduce unprecedented surveillance powers across Europe is being built on recommendations from an anonymous and unaccountable group. In any democracy, this would be a scandal. In the European Union, it is an outright betrayal of public trust. According to digital rights organization EDRİ, “The HLG has kept its work sessions closed, by strictly controlling which stakeholders got invited and effectively shutting down civil society participation.” In short, the process was deliberately closed off to public scrutiny, democratic debate, and expert dissent. Civil society was excluded while powerful lobbyists shaped one of the most consequential digital laws of our time behind closed doors. A blunt overreach of state power: Universal identification and data retention, every click, message, and connection must be logged under your legal name, turning the entire population into perpetual Suspects. Encryption smashed: providers must supply data “in an intelligible way” (Rec 27.ii), forcing them to weaken or bypass end-to-end encryption whenever asked. Backdoors by design: hardware and software makers are ordered to bake permanent law-enforcement access points into phones, laptops, cars, and loT devices (Rec 22, 25, 26). Privacy shields outlawed: VPNS and other anonymity tools must start logging users or shut down. Criminalized resistance: services or developers who refuse to spy on their users face fines, market bans, or prison (Rec 34). No one exempt: the rules cover every “electronic communication service”, from open-source chat servers to encrypted messengers to vehicle comms systems (Rec 17, 18, 27.ii). A mass surveillance law, drafted in secrecy by unknown actors, with provisions that go beyond what we see in many authoritarian regimes. And yet, the European Commission is advancing it as if it’s routine policy work. The European Commission must halt this process immediately. No law that enables this scale of surveillance, especially one built in the shadows, should ever be allowed to pass. Europe must not become a place where privacy dies quietly behind closed doors. This threatens the fundamental rights of every citizen in the Union.

It isn’t the Trump admin: it’s the majority of USA citizens that’s doing this and that. They voted it. They’re the first responsible and guilty. Each and every single person in that majority.
