Amazon’s Ring is rolling out “Familiar Faces,” an opt-in facial-recognition tool that catalogs up to 50 known visitors 🚪

Amazon says data is encrypted, but past law-enforcement partnerships and security issues raise concerns about biometric handling 🔒

Stories like this are yet another reason to pull your data from the cloud/ID services provided by #Apple, #Microsoft, #Google. You think you're fine, that it won't happen to you. Until it does.

It's possible to have your own fully synced local "cloud" for files. I have an iPad, Mac, and two computers running GNU/Linux with the same files thanks to Syncthing. All in the background and backed up locally to external drives.

Fully private and secure.

Dear Fedi friends,

I just hit "publish" on my blog post "A newbie's guide to #selfhosting with #YunoHost. Part 1: reasons + requirements". It's here if you wanna read it:

🔗​: https://blog.elenarossini.com/a-newbies-guide-to-self-hosting-with-yunohost-part-1-reasons-requirements/

This guide is intended for true newbies who are curious about self-hosting some essential digital services. I'm hoping to dispel some myths about self-hosting and make it appear accessible to all. Well, at least to people curious about it but hesitant to get started because they think it's too complicated. That was me up to a year ago.

Special thanks and shout-out to @ilja for setting my journey in motion. And eternal gratitude to @yunohost for the way they are empowering us all with the tools to self-host

The UK health service #NHS is using an #AI tool made by Anima. It hallucinated a set of false diagnoses for a patient, and backed it up with a fake hospital and fake address! The poor dude thought he had diabetes and angina 😱

Here's to the crazy ones. The digital revolutionaries. The #fediverse builders. The ones who see social media differently.

They're not fond of #BigTech. And they have no respect for the #SurveillanceEconomy.

You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.

Because they change things.

While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Because the people crazy enough to think they can change social media, are the ones who do.
