We all now that #privacy is under attack, thanks to the giant amount of data being collected by any and every company online.
But this data collection is also the biggest threat to being #anonymous online, which is further reinforced by plenty of laws being passed, to make sure your government knows exactly what you’re doing or talking about.
So let’s look at the fast approach on death of online anonymity:
A #juror was quickly dismissed at the start. She was among the 7 already selected, she said she was very worried that despite the fact the court ruled to keep jurors’ name secret, she would still be exposed & targeted.
"There's a reason this is an #anonymous#jury & why we have taken the steps we have taken," Justice #Merchan says, asking that the #press "abide common sense," & avoid physical descriptions.
Merchan says we lost a #juror who he thinks would have "been a very good juror."
"I'm directing the press to refrain from writing anything you observe w/your eyes & hear w/your ears that's not on the record," the judge says.
We are down to 6 jurors, & apparently waiting to hear from another, juror 4. The judge is addressing the #NewsMedia, saying there is a reason #reporters are taking measures to keep the #jury#anonymous.
It “kind of defeats the purpose of that" when so much information is #publicized about them.
🛡️ When you are keen on web privacy, i.e. anonymity, what do you use? Is there actually a difference for you between @torproject, @i2p, @Freenet and #GNUnet and is their use important to you? Multiple selection possible.
I really want to engage on Pixelfed but I'm a little worried about the privacy, or lack thereof, on the platform. Can someone properly explain the privacy options I have using Pixelfed?

We will stand in solidarity with the Armenian people until the end. Because they have been subjected to injustice and oppression, we must support them as a requirement of being human. #ArtsakhGenocide #Anonymous
No matter what the reason, it is an anti-humanitarian act to take and post photos of the bodies of people who died in wars or accidents without their families' permission. #Anonymous
James Peak isn't an art critic, or even a journalist. He's a Banksy super-fan, and in this series he gets closer than close to Banksy's secret world to tell the story of the graffiti kid who made spraying walls into high art, the anonymous figure who became a household name, the cultural phenomenon who bites the hand that feeds him.
What would you do if suddenly you couldn't access Google, The New York Times, or Wikipedia anymore? Censorship like this is a reality for many people around the world, including in China, Iran, Russia, and an increasing number of other countries.
You can help people experiencing censorship by safely transforming a Raspberry Pi into a Tor middle relay from home.
