Das 40,00€ teurer gewordene Nachfolgeticket zum 9-Euro-Ticket soll Daten melken. Zwar solle das Ticket übergangsweise nicht nur für Smartphones erhältlich sein sondern auch auf Chip-Karten und kurzzeitig auf Papier mit QR-Code, aber wichtig scheint es den Regierenden vor allem anderen, dass mit dem 49€-Ticket Echtzeit-Verkehrsdaten erhoben werden können.

Positiv klingt zunächst: "Es werde nicht gespeichert, wer von A nach B fährt, sondern nur, wie stark die Verkehrsmittel ausgelastet sind. Für die Fahrgäste könnte das ein Nutzen sein, weil die Verkehrsunternehmen so für ausreichend Kapazitäten sorgen könnten."

Allerdings: Das Ticket wird wohl nur als Abo personalisiert erworben werden können, so dass darüber anfallende Personendaten zukünftig schnell integriert werden könnten. Mit Hinblick auf den aktuellen massiven Ausbau des Überwachungsstaats und der Kontrollgesellschaft in Deutschland und der EU (digitale Personenkennziffer/RegMod, Chatkontrolle, Identifizierungspflicht, Biometrie, eIDAS uvm) ist es doch auch gar nicht die Frage ob, sondern nur wann und mit welchem Vorwand (Anschläge, Pandemie, Jugendschutz, Wahlkampf) personalisierte Datenerfassung und Polizeizugriffe kommen werden, sobald die digitale Kontrollinfrastruktur erst einmal errichtet wurde.

Dass es bei der #Chatkontrolle nicht um den behaupteten Schutz von Kindern geht, sondern um allgemeine Verschlüsselungsverbote, Identifizierungspflichten und die Errichtung neuer digitaler, erweiterbare Kontrollinfrastrukturen, dürfte längst bekannt sein.

Dass Staaten und #EU in diesem Zusammenhang jetzt sogar noch auf die Echtzeit-Überwachung von Audiokommunikation hinarbeiten, zeigt, wie weit und maßlos die autoritären Bestrebungen der Herrschenden offensichtlich reichen und wie gefährlich "digitale Vorhaben" der EU ganz allgemein sind.

Es sollte aber auch bedacht werden, dass es sich bei so etwas um taktische Maximalforderung handeln kann. Nach dem Muster, dass alles andere dann "nicht mehr so schlimm" wirkt und im Falle einer vermeintlichen Abschwächung des Vorhabens oder eines Gerichtsurteils, zwar ein "Immerhin ist das mit der Audioüberwachung nicht durchgekommen" steht und irgendwelche Seiten und Parteien sich mal wieder für irgendwelche faulen Kompromisse feiern lassen, während trotzdem die #Massenüberwachung von persönlicher Text-Kommunikation, Identifizierungspflichten für Chatprogramme, Websites und App-Stores sowie Netzsperren durchgesetzt werden.

Look, it's not that I don't get the enthusiasm about #P92‌/‌#Barcelona —that's not the reason why I warn against federating with it <https://sociale.network/@oblomov/110397020867065165>. I do get it. There is something elating, validating, empowering even, when some{one,thing} Big & Famous (seems to) adopts “underdog” tech. I know because I've been there, both as a user and as a developer. But because of that, and for having been burned already not once, not twice, but three times at least, I know what to look out for.

I've seen several people proposing already in advance to fediblock #P92‌/‌#Barcelona because, being a Meta product, it poses a threat to the #privacy of uses across the entire #Fediverse (see e.g. https://mstdn.patatas.ca/@smallpatatas/110432897559593466 by @smallpatatas and @atomicpoet response here https://calckey.social/notes/9f7wv4qf03 —also an excellent example of how QTs destroy the flow of discussion even when not used maliciously, BTW— for two very different views on the matter). Honestly, to me this is a “second order” worry,

In this week's , and News video, we have proposing to drop X11 when Plasma 6 is out, a nasty vulnerability in and its fingerprint reader implementation, receiving an enormous $1.3B fine from the EU, and Intel proposing a new x86 architecture that would drop bare metal support for 32 and 16 bit:

@thelinuxEXP Wow that meta fine is huge. Is this amount is the highest amount EU has ever been fined to a giant tech company?

“LLMs not only fail to properly generate correct Python code when default function names are swapped, but some of them even become more confident in their incorrect predictions as the model size increases, an instance of the recently discovered phenomenon of Inverse Scaling, which runs contrary to the commonly observed trend of increasing prediction quality with increasing model size”

    Europe's most famous technology law, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), turned 5 today.

    The law, which came into force on 25 May 2018, has prompted businesses — from tech giants to hotel chains, cellphone companies to mom-and-pop businesses — to tighten their privacy policies.

    Many have cleaned up how they handle people’s personal data, encouraged by the prospect of being fined up to 4% of their annual revenue.

    5 years in 5 charts.

    It seems that the #privacy strength of the #fediverse was that no one barely knew it existed, not that it was built on a rugged social protocol with privacy built-in. As this post by @@jupiter_rowland has me thinking, how would you actually stop #Meta or anyone hoovering up the Fediverse?

    We couldn't even get search sorted with some Fediverse consensus and extended at a protocol level. There's folks who thought #noindex HMTL tags in #Mastodon were readable over #ActivityPub by other services with full-text search that had been around longer than Mastodon. And Google just easily indexed the Fediverse once it gained some popularity so it's publicly searchable anyway and will be even easier once they launch their Perspectives social search tab.

    Yet folks thought Universeodon's search patch was so egregious and worth their performative outrage, and again, that defederation would somehow fix things.
