Hello Mastodon 👋

[ghrasko@mastodon.social]

@thelocalstack I absolutely support your ideas. Everyone should do whatever percentage hi/she is capable of. Part of that is switching to reliable providers, the other is to push legislation, politicians to force privacy supported laws.

I myself replaced a majority of the applications on my mobile. Surely, not 100%, but the applications are mostly open source and/or European ones falling under European privacy legislation. Also changed my laptop from Windows to Linux.

@thelocalstack I just read your posts, not many but really interesting. Keep the good work. I want to introduce you our French GDPR celebrity @aeris. Very much aligned I think.
Also love the low tech, that's my project for this summer.

@gbt
Thank you, really appreciate you taking the time to read. And great intro, I'll definitely check out @aeris work.
The low-tech project sounds fun, there's something freeing about constraints. Looking forward to seeing what you build this summer!

@thelocalstack I have a project in mind involving second hand devices on battery and solar electricity

@thelocalstack@mastodon.social @gbt@pouet.chapril.org A little less low tech here because many more services to provide, but mostly refurbished old hardware.

@thelocalstack > Last week: my passport went through 17 US companies just to get a LinkedIn badge.

Now what about that same thing happening but not even getting the sodding badge
