Proton mail, who claim they don't keep IPs, have handed the IPs of climate activists over to the French police. The activists had their homes searched and were arrested.
So the only way Protonmail is secure is if you use a VPN
No, your cryptocurrency cannot work
Explaining in understandable terms why Bitcoin uses so much power, why all these supposed 'alternatives' cannot fix the problem, how other coins are a scam, and how proof-of-stake is ultimately a dead end too.

@aligyie off topic is our main conversation room.
@socketwench @forestjohnson @j3s hell yeah! it's right off the blue line, so you should be OK transit-wise. :)
@June@kitty.town (I'm sure we'd love to have ya, but we just don't have a plan/path for how public the space is for new internet people we haven't chatted with yet. We're *really* early on and I didn't wanna speak for everyone.)
Once the space is fixed up, there'll definitely be 'everybody' times, though, and we'd love to meet ya/hangout with ya then. If you want to be involved before it's fixed up, our matrix is the best way.
Also, hiiii! I don't mean to be unfriendly, I'm really excited that you're excited about this! 💙
@June@kitty.town how do you feel about hanging out with us on matrix first? The faq has the dates we plan to work on stuff, but most of our actual, like, culture culture happens in matrix.
me: do you sell ducks?
him: yes, but they're going quick
me: ok I'll take one
[later]
duck: quick
me: I see

Cyberia has a physical space in Minneapolis! We'll be building it out over the next couple of months. As always, the best way to talk to us is via our matrix, but enjoy the faq below!

Also, huge thanks to @forestjohnson and @j3s for really driving this home. It takes a village, but this has been a long time coming, and without their dedication, it wouldn't have happened. Can't wait to help build the new place! 💙
@jonatasbaldin@indieweb.social this might be more useful than links to individual channels, since you'll need a client or account to view:

Here's a link to our main conversation channel, though:

Matrix is more like irc and less like a forum, if that's helpful.
Though Surveillance Capitalism is a global phenomenon and a universal term, it is interpreted differently by people from different regions.
Americans see this mostly as a monopoly/anti-trust problem.
Europeans are calling it digital feudalism.
The once-colonized global south sees it as digital colonialism.
All of these interpretations are not only simultaneously true but also demonstrate that this issue is multi-faceted.
