@bigfatsurprise I could get excited about this if ‘whole’, milk meant raw, unprocessed milk, of course with some basic hygiene provisos such as regular TBC check, but I don’t think that’s the case. So I can’t take some of the key points, such as higher levels of micronutrients, seriously.

The Turing Insitute has published a report on the end-to-end encryption and online safety debate. It proposes ways to encourage more productive discussions on the topic and while this might not create universal consensus, it could foster better understanding between stakeholders.

The last-minute "gag order" amendment was introduced by @JamesBrowneTD for the Irish Ministry of Justice, but likely suggested by the @DPCIreland -- given the lack of public discussion it may have simply been overlooked what this really means for freedom of speech and journalism.

The Government has introduced a last minute amendment that will gag people from speaking about how the DPC handles their complaint and about how Big Tech firms are misusing their data
@ICCLtweet calls on all parties in the Dáil to challenge amendment.

After 25months, the contact tracing app @CoronalertBe will be discontinued. Users are requested to disable and remove the app. A big thank you to the large team (including several volunteers and the DP3T researchers) going above & beyond their duty to make this work. A🧵 1/7

@LuizaJarovsky Really? I know this is mandatory according to the GDPR for example. But have you seen it working? Do you have examples of such ‘common format’?

@AshTreeFarm42 I did. And an orange to be sucked through a sugar cube at tea time.
I assume citrus fruit available in Northern Europe today is a whole lot sweeter than it was in the 60s

@neilmaddog Best of luck, Neil. I’m sure your courses will be absolutely riveting

Imagine a company that does not change its leadership because of this: “Assessing Meta’s contribution to the genocide — which Amnesty concludes was substantial — the report finds that Facebook’s ‘content-shaping algorithms’ directly fueled killings and other abuses.” /1

OneTrust, a leading consent pop-up providers, just filed a patent to make pop-ups even more annoying.

They want to make it impossible to answer pop-ups with automated tools (such as Consent-O-Matic), which were only created because most popups are full of manipulative designs.

Did you know that SecAppDev is not a conference, but more like an #appsec course? The group is small to foster interaction and the sessions are long, to allow real depth. Coffee breaks and catered 2-course lunches make the experience truly immersive. https://t.co/gh5IDaRDlj
