The Trump administration shows little regard for the rule of law or court decisions and appears focused on consolidating power and self-enrichment. U.S. legislation, treaties, and regulations—especially around data, privacy, and IT security—can no longer be considered reliable. Assume the administration will act unilaterally and unpredictably. Adjust your IT strategies to reduce dependencies on U.S.-based infrastructure and legal frameworks accordingly.

Going Dark: USB Privacy Gadget based on a Raspberry Pi

codeberg.org/term7/Going-Dark

Our Codeberg Repository is both a guide and a step-by-step tutorial for configuring a Raspberry Pi 4 as a USB #EthernetGadget. It is configured to force your computer to route all internet traffic through either a #WireGuard #VPN or a #Tor Transparent Proxy while filtering outbound traffic, blocking ads and trackers with #AdGuardHome and spoofing its device identity for enhanced privacy.

Are you aware of the growing concerns among European law enforcement about people #goingdark ? The so-called High Level Group (HLG) is actively working to undermine end-to-end #encryption pushing for backdoor access to encrypted messaging apps, cloud storage, and email services. EDRi has dissected the critical flaws in this approach: edri.org/?s=going+dark

If you haven’t gone dark yet, now is the time! Avoid big US cloud-providers and encrypt whenever you can!

Protect your #privacy and minimize the traces you leave online!

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS. WE ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO TEST THIS. SOON WE WILL PUBLISH A 4-5 PART TUTORIAL ON OUR BLOG. FEEDBACK WELCOME!

🔓 200M X (Twitter) user records leaked in a 34GB free-for-all—again.

Data enthusiast “ThinkingOne” released the files after allegedly failing to get a response from X. The breach combines:
・Data from a 2022 vulnerability X previously downplayed
・January 2025 breach data
・A total of 2.8 billion records spanning X user IDs, emails, bios, locations & more

X continues to deny its systems were the direct source of the leak. But researchers confirm much of the data is real—and the scale is unmatched.

💡 The kicker? ThinkingOne believes this might’ve required internal access, or an attack of unprecedented sophistication.

Even without passwords, this treasure trove fuels phishing, impersonation, and targeted disinformation.

Forbes200 Million X User Records Released — 2.8 Billion Twitter IDs LeakedMore than 200 million claimed leaked and stolen data records relating to X users have been posted on a popular hacker forum. What you need to know.

So here we go again: "EU: These are scary times – let's backdoor encryption!"

Now #chatcontrol is rebranded with the excuse of threats like terrorism, organized crime, surging cybercrime and attacks against our critical infrastructure, instead of child sexual abuse.

"Data Kindness" by @aram and @jesse

1. "when you invite someone into your home, remember that they may be more vulnerable than you are to certain kinds of data surveillance."

2. "remember that data surveillance means more than just devices."

3. "when sharing selfies and videos on social media, look closely before you post. Who else is included in those images?"

TIME · How to Be Kind in a World That's Always Monitoring YouIf we want to live in a more ethical data-driven world, we’re going to have to manage it ourselves.

Sweden just isn't what it used to be...

"In most countries, the government knows when you were born, your social security number, where you live, how much you earn and how much your house is worth. Sweden is a bit different though. There, the tax authority doesn’t just use this information for administrative purposes – but sells it to data brokers who publish it online. This is a violation of EU law. Earlier this year, a Swedish data subject asked the country’s tax authority to stop selling his data. The country’s Supreme Court has recently ruled that freedom of information and privacy rights must be balanced and data must be marked as confidential, if the recipient is likely to process it in conflict with the GDPR. The tax authority rejected the request, claiming it simply follows the Swedish constitutional principle of transparency rather than the ruling by the Supreme Court. noyb now takes the authority to court."
