Very cool #story about #students #revolting against a #university 's #surveillance https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/07/senso.. What was interesting to me is that #hr #bypassed the #ethics approval system for #scientific #research , despite it being a *requirement.*
The #eu is trying to push #csam to #scan your #private #communications in the name of " #protecting the #children ": https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/eu-surve.. What this will really do is increase the scope of the #surveillance state... This is about #control .
The problem with #australia and their new #surveillance powers is that there's a good chance other #fiveeyes Countries will adopt them, including the #uk https://www.lotuseaters.com/bill-allowin.. Essentially it grants them the ability to #disrupt , #spy and #control the #internet - even fabricate evidence by the looks of it! How on earth do their #politicians feel safe? This will be surely used against them too..
