Dass die EU-Kommission die Totalüberwachung und digitale
Kontrolle im Internet genauso wie im Alltag, an ihren Außengrenzen zur Bekämpfung von fliehenden Menschen und im Inneren u.a. für den Datenkapitalismus weiter ausbaut, ist nichts Neues. Nicht nur besteht sie aus stramm neoliberalen, autoritären Politiker*innen, die schon zuvor immer wieder mit repressiven Vorhaben angekommen sind, es geht allgemein mit dem Überwachungs- und Krisenkapitalismus auch eine autoritäre Transformation einher.

Als Antiautoritäre stellen wir uns diesen Entwicklungen und Allen, die sie voranbringen wollen, entschlossen entgegen!

Die #EU will WhatsApp-Chats mitlesen

"WhatsApp, Telefone, Sprachassistenten von Google oder Apple und sogar smarte Kühlschränke in Wohnungen sollen in Zukunft überwacht werden können, wenn es nach der EU-Kommission geht. Das geht aus einem vertraulichen Vorschlagspapier hervor, das eine Expertengruppe im Auftrag der EU-Kommission erstellt hat. Dieses Dokument liegt t-online vor.
In dem Papier werden auf 28 Seiten 42 Punkte für eine verschärfte Überwachung vorgeschlagen. Auch an der möglichen Umsetzung dieser Pläne wird schon gearbeitet. Datenschützer schlagen Alarm. Sie befürchten durch die Pläne einen nie dagewesenen Einschnitt in die Privatsphäre eines jeden EU-Bürgers."

#ICQ will turn off soon. I grew up with it’s weird aoooo and still know my quite long ID by heart. It was sensational, in contrast to the other, hacky (also cool) #IRC.

It was the first DM app I and everyone around me used and loved. #WhatsApp never came close.

I've used for several weeks now across , , , , and it's been a great improvement to the messaging mess:

• I've actually had an easier time keeping up with Slack than in Slack itself
• Initially I ran clients side by side but Beeper updates just as fast and I've since stopped running most except for Discord which I use for calls
• Even so, it's great to run it in parallel to Discord, because it's easier to text chat in Beeper while in a video call

Another huge plus of Beeper is that when you set it up on a new machine that’s a •single• login to get all your chats set up.

Just saved me faffin about with 5 service logins to get everything up and running 👌

According to #SadaSocial, there is an urgent need for an immediate investigation into #Meta's leak of #WhatsApp users' #data to the #Israeli #military.

The group diligently observes the collective dissent voiced by numerous Meta employees, encompassing #Facebook, #Instagram, WhatsApp, #Messenger, and #Threads, regarding the Meta #company's complicity in the #genocidal war against the #Gaza Strip, its endorsement of the Israeli occupation, and its fueling of the "Lavender" #artificialintelligence system used by the Israeli military to kill #Palestinian individuals within the Gaza enclave.

#WhatsApp uses the open-source #Signal protocol… However, encryption isn’t the whole story… WhatsApp and, by extension, all #Meta organizations know you sent something, when you sent it, and who you sent it to…

"This undisclosed WhatsApp vulnerability lets governments see who you message."

And when it comes to metadata, unfortunately - that's by design.

"Metadata — information about the who, when, and where of conversations — has come to hold immense value to intelligence, military, and police agencies around the world."

End-to-end encrypted messages isn't all you should seek out from any app that claims to be private.

“Providing this data as input for Lavender undermines their claim that is a private messaging app,” he wrote. “It is beyond obscene and makes complicit in Israel’s killings of ‘pre-crime’ targets and their families, in violation of international humanitarian law and Meta’s publicly stated commitment to human rights.
