A YouTube spokesperson said that the removal of “gender identity and expression” from the hate speech policy was part of regular copy edits to the website, and that the enforcement of the policy hasn’t changed. Hate speech toward someone over their “sex, gender, or sexual orientation” is still barred, however critics say that “gender” is very different than “gender identity and expression.”
If this is a good faith statement it’s a non-issue IMO
They’re open source, so for technical issues you can open an issue on GitHub
If you have a custom domain Tuta is way better than Proton. It’s unlimited addresses.
Yep. I also think having a dedicated screen is much better than opening a phone app all the time, especially when it comes to babysitting and traveling.
Yes, I use it and generally like it. Their app is a little buggy, but they have email support and accept bug reports on GitHub. This is helpful for finding out what other users are seeing. It’s a small dev team with frequent releases
I’m not sure what you mean. The “overhead” is putting your different logins into a password manager, no?
That’s correct. You get better export tools with Google compared to Proton. Because of this alone I’d recommend not storing your important data with Proton
Ukraine losing would be terrible for Trump. It makes him look weak and bad at foreign policy. Everyone knows that Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked, and they’ll do it again
I understand your point and I support & contribute to FOSS. But I was specifically addressing the claim that Telegram reads all messages and sells them to the highest bidder. They don’t currently, unless someone can point me towards a credible source
China is pro-Palestinian, so it’s still directly related
I’ve used Telegram for years and never seen an ad. Their Privacy Policy says ads aren’t based on messages
Unlike other services, we don’t use your data for ad targeting or other commercial purposes. Telegram only stores the information it needs to function as a secure and feature-rich cloud service.
Telegram offers a tool for advertisers to promote their messages in public one-to-many channels, but these sponsored messages are based solely on the topic of the public channels in which they are shown. No user data is mined or analyzed to display ads or sponsored messages.
On the Orion forums their staff consistently bullies people around
socialist like platform having an audience. Which in my opinion is why they wanted to force a sell or just ban Tiktok.
This logic doesn’t follow. What does forcing a sale have to do with being “socialist like” ? TikTok has been diluted into a sales platform anyway.
I don’t necessarily believe it’s in good faith. Just pointing out that it could be a simple misunderstanding and added back.
They can quietly drop or add anything internally, or just be inconsistent. They don’t even have to have a public policy. So the words don’t mean much to begin with. Once there are examples of no enforcement is when it becomes a serious issue.
