#Privacy isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity.
Every “free” service you use turns you into the #product - your habits, your location, your thoughts. The more #data they collect, the easier you are to manipulate.

Privacy is not #paranoia It’s self-defense.
Over the past five years, Horizontal has developed vital tools like @tella to empower those most at risk of surveillance.
However, the recent funding freeze imposed by the Trump administration threatens to dismantle everything we’ve built: our organization, our tools, and our community.
To help us survive as we build new revenue streams to become self-sustaining, we are looking for 250 monthly donors.

For group chat #security, it would be really cool if @signalapp had an optional feature that allowed group chat admins to see a network map of which accounts added which other accounts.
For a couple of the group chats I'm in, we sorta do this manually but it seems like there's the technical capability allow this as an opt-in feature, which would be great for semi-open groups.

Exciting news for privacy! The US government has officially recommended using Signal and other encrypted messaging apps after recent telecom hacks. This is a huge step forward in recognizing the importance of secure communication!
As someone who has always championed free and open-source software, I’m thrilled to see this acknowledgment from the government, especially given the increasing threats to our privacy. With the rise of surveillance and the potential for breaches in our communication networks, it’s more important than ever to prioritize encrypted messaging.
If even the CIA is warning us about the dangers of unencrypted communications, we should take it seriously! Let’s embrace tools that protect our privacy and autonomy. Remember, our digital safety is in our hands!
Have you made the switch to Signal or another secure messaging app, or know someone making it now?
