"uhh u gotta have some kind of wage slavery! lets just beg for the slave conditions to get just a little better! oh this person is saying we should abolish slavery?? ridiculous! dont they know nothing would ever get done in society??"
i dont wanna argue with the crippled remains of the antiwork movement, bc it frustrates me to no end. but please read some antiwork theory before saying so much dumb shit all at once.

During the call, the Reddit co-founder said the company would begin testing AI-powered search results later this year [and] that search could one day be a significant source of advertising revenue for the company.
this does not seem to be an alternative to the existing method of profiting from ads etc., but more of an additional way to make loads of money

i mean, thats great! but the moneys gotta come from somewhere, and in most cases someone else is being exploited.
most non-profits actually suffer from this issue where getting funding is the number one priority.
the organization has to bend its methods to what will look good on paper vs what would actually be best for their cause

theres companies making money off of prison labor, if u want a not very subtle example. in the US, prisons are also for-profit institutions, making it even more insidious.
then ur typical capitalist labor situation ofc. ur boss makes more off of their workers labor than their workers get paid. this "surplus value" is how bosses get richer than the ppl who work for them; all without having to do any actual work of their own.
ow also landlords who rent housing to ppl for a price, often providing very little or even no maintenance at all for that building. this exploits peoples need of shelter for the landlords personal gain, as landlords squeeze as much money out of ppl as they can get away with (also for example, keeping security deposits for no good reason).

Iirc this can fall under antisemitism as it impies the wish to "destroy" izzy. I don't agree, but thats why.
yea, im aware of the bullshit they make up so they can crack down on protests.
doesnt make it true tho.

also german here. the demo i recently went to was cut short by police for no apparent reason.
also many others are being blocked by the cops before they get to happen.
this country is also raiding organizers homes and recently banned a group called "palästina solidarität duisburg" which organized protests as well.
and its all happening in the name of what they call "staatsräson" or some vague ideas of chants like "from the river to the sea, palestine will be free" being antisemitic.
lastly, the idea that cops give a shit abt following the law is ridiculous if u ask me

sooo theres no way of preventing ur phones storage from being copied. it has to be stored on a chip somewhere, and that chips contents can be copied.
there is however a different way of protecting the data.
a strong encryption password is the only real protection against this kind of attack. modern phones have a chip called a Trusted Platform Module, that is capable of storing secret keys in a way thats very difficult to get to even with physical access to the device.
the way i understand encryption on modern phones, is that ur unlock PIN is passed to the TPM, which then passes a secret key (longer and more complex password than ur PIN) to the system to decrypt ur files.
this way, if u only copy the phones storage, u will have to bruteforce this very complex key thats stored in the TPM. or u would have to try to hack or brute-force the TPM itself, which is hardened against those types of attacks specifically.
having said all that, idk if its even reasonable to expect a phone to ever be secure against targeted government agencies attacks. best protection is not having anything personal on ur phone in the first place. so set disappearing messages on messengers, etc.
TL;DR use a long pin or a strong password for ur phone and try to remove any incriminating information from ur phone as soon as its not needed there anymore.

both help each other:
If we are to learn from the successful movements of the past, we can see that all successful pressure has been the collusion of the peaceful and non-peaceful aspects of the movement, such that the peaceful party can lobby the state to concede, saying to them “now see? Wouldn’t you rather deal with me than them? Sit down and make some concessions to those suffering people.” Meanwhile, the non-peaceful protesters escalate the aggression of their actions such as to put a clock on the state.

so theyre being told to watch S10E07 "Lisa gets an 'A'", then write about what they "did wrong" in a way that doesnt justify any of their actions.
i wonder how well u could maliciously comply with that order. maybe talk about how nation states are simply above the law; how the great USA was built on colonialism; how students are just cogs in the machine that are to do what theyre told, without question.

arent telegram chats unencrypted by default?
An alarming number of important people I’ve spoken to remarked that their “private” Signal messages had been exploited against them in US courts or media
source?? (i bet this ends up being a "they had full access to my unlocked phone" situation again)
also the whole thing abt US funded encryption is the same bullshit argument ppl use against Tor all the time. it doesnt mean shit.
this just reads like someone desperately trying to get more market share by spreading FUD

if non-vegans caring about animals is hypocrisy, then vegans are hypocrites for buying products from companies that make non-vegan or not cruelty-free products as well.
fight the system that propagates eating meat, not the ppl born into it.

i dont have an account anymore but for anytime i need to view a reddit post i use RedReader. its an open-source thirdparty app thats still allowed to use reddits API for accesibility reasons.
hi all, i saw a post (or perhaps it was in the comments) about 1-2 weeks ago of a website to download any youtube/vimeo/instagram/tiktok/whatever video/audio in many different formats. it was a FOSS website. dark background, with maybe red text in places? on mobile, it had tabs on the bottom for video/audio/other. i tried searching for it for a while now with no success. was hoping someone here mightve seen it too and bookmarked it.. i remember finding it via a lemmy post or comment. if anyone can help me out its greatly appreciated! thanks yall <3
