Research of almost 1m Android apps reveals how data from smartphones are harvested and shared, with nearly 90 per cent of apps set up to transfer information back to Google. Best get all your apps from @fdroidorg - guaranteed no data sharing with Google! 😀

@Gargron
Right!
Like for example to have better wall feed. Now it is just stacks of single person or two posts and it kills motivation to check Mastodon. Even that you wish very much it to be replacement for Twitter. UX killer, literally.

OUAF il semblerait d’après @FuckOffGoogle que les opposants au campus Google à Berlin (Kreuzberg) aient eu gain de cause, Google renoncerait à son projet !

The activist that halted a deportation reasonably believed to lead to the death of of the person being forced from Gothenburg via Istanbul to the war in Afghanistan is now being prosecuted for violating the Air Traffic Act.
The defence of another's life by Elin Ersson was hailed worldwide as an exemplary act of courage, but the prosecutor James Von Reis says "I can't see anything else than this being civil disobedience".
For the act of extraordinary selfless humaneness and because the prosecutor incompetently doesn't weigh reasonable defence of life before harmlessly "failing" to follow an order that Elin says was not perceived, Elin now risks up to 6 months prison.
