"Another way in which you could be identified is through your location. Every person has a different location footprint, so even if your name is not on the database, it's easy to work out who you are. The specifity of location data is not surprising, given that there is usually only one person who lives and works where you do. " (" Privacy is Power ", Carissa Véliz)

".. we should worry about our private data being collected even if no one is using it at the moment for evil purposes - data often gets misused eventually. [..] The data economy led, years later, to the erosion of equality, fairness, and democracy." (Carissa Véliz, "Privacy is Power") #privacy #privacyMatters
Valentine's day for singles is fun as well. I spent mine doing my favourite pastimes both alone and in good company.

"I remember someone explaining that social safety nets don’t exist out of kindness alone. Welfare isn’t about generosity from the wealthy.
It exists because people with a little will protect it, but people with nothing to lose can be incredibly dangerous.
That lesson feels forgotten." #SeenOnline
GM plebs

I try to remember: bitcoin is a tool. We each use it in ways that resonate with who we are. #thoughtOfTheDay #ToTD
GM. TGIF. 👌
Current feeling: disappointed.
Looking forward to Friday.
Something I heard today and that makes sense to me:
"Politicians' incentives are mainly accumulating and maintaining power."
GM, TGIF 🙏
