After what we have just experienced with , allowing avian influenza to spread among would be an obvious failure to learn from our reent experience. By prioritising open and collaborative data sharing, we can strengthen global preparedness and response efforts against future health threats.
stimmt. Vielen ist es nicht bewusst dass mit Werbung und Geld verdienen will. Mit Chrome wird sowas verstrkt. Das zeigt ganz klar wo die Richtung hingehen. Meine Meinung dazu. Wer und die Derivate nutzt bentigt kein . Und sich beschweren schon gar nicht. Alternative Ja nmlich
Und ein schner Nebeneffekt: damit wird ein Gegengewicht zu Chrome geschafft.
So einfach ist das.
Reading: "Privacy-Preserving" Attribution: Mozilla Disappoints Us Yet Again
Last week, Google backtracked on its long-standing promise to block third-party cookies in Chrome. This is bad for your privacy and good for Google's business.

Our first lecture of the day at the behavior is talking about using to study .
: even if does *not* appear to be a regular URL-shortening service, nothing in it's domain name convinces me it's not. Perhaps they're offering *you* a free service that *visitors* pay for with a loss of privacy.
I do not want to, and simply cannot (I apologize for my intelligence not being artificial) remember all possible aliases of - in order to prevent from being fooled or phished.
Why is this not as stupid as Microsoft (microsoft.com) asking their customers to log in to:
   login.microsoftonline.com
instead of somehing like:
   login.customer.microsoft.com
  
Mastodon has its own, IMO excellent built-in URL-shortening system for the final link you asked us to visit:
   
In fact, the full link to that article is automatically shortened by Mastodon fine too:
   
I juste posted additional reasons in a toot to Margarita Estvez-Abe in .
Let's all do our best to make the internet a safer place!
: I have a request to you: please refrain from using URL-shorteners on Mastodon.
Note: this is not intended as criticism, but purely educational.
It is none of their (the owners of URL-shorteners) business who and when clicks on a specific link.
Most internet users can't even guess how personal-data-hungry entities on the internet are, collecting as much as possible information about them, selling (or inadvertently leaking) that infornation for profit.
As a matter of fact, Mastodon excellently shortens long URLs in such a way that the most relevant information of each URL is visible in toots. So there is no reason whatsoever to use commercial third party shorteners (other than to make a third party wiser and richer).
Edited to add at 16:26 UTC: In fact, here's the URL that you were indirectly referring to:
When using touch screens, pressing a bit longer on them reveals the full URL. When using a mouse, right-clicking provides such information.
ADDITIONAL REASONS: apart from the privacy issues mentioned, there are some relevant security concerns when using third pary URL shorteners (such as tinyurl.com, bit.ly, t.co etc.), including:
1) By looking at third-party shortened URL, the internet user won't know in advance to which website (identified by their domain name) their browser will be redirected (by the shortener service). If they trust *you*, they may forget to inspect the domain name (in the address bar of their browser) where their browser ends up. If your Mastodon account gets hacked, and an impostor toots third-party-shortened links to malicious websites on your behalf, you may feel sorry that you ever used them.
2) Even if an owner of a URL-shortener won't forward the visiting user's browser to a malicious website TODAY, they may change their mind TOMORROW. Or they may sell their business to less ethical people.
3) Sometimes URL-shortening services just stop functioning, or their disk may crash without having a decent backup. Links will go dead.
Note: sometimes proponents or owners bomb us with texts such as "if you add <whatever> to the link, it'll tell you where you're heading". It is absurd to ask people to jump through all kinds of hoops - just because a third party wants to steal your data.
Wie bereits bei der Fuball-Europameisterschaft, so nun auch bei den Olympischen Sommerspielen in Paris: Diese Veranstaltungen kann man kaum noch besuchen, ohne durch eine Smartphone-App berwacht zu werden. Das ist alarmierend und ein massiver Eingriff in die Privatsphre der Besucher. Im Moment hilft nur Boykott - der Gesetzgeber befindet sich (mal wieder) im Dornrschenschlaf.

Epic-Chef Sweeney findet Apples "Wo ist"-Tracking "super creepy"
Tim Sweeney, CEO des "Fortnite"-Herstellers Epic, hat Bedenken gegen Apples Findesystem. Das hatte einen geklauten Rechner von ihm entdeckt und sei "gruselig".

Just presented our latest analysis on HTTP Client Hint usage on the Web at in Vienna, Austria. Was honored to open the conference as the first speaker.
Some popular browsers use HTTP CHs to "enhance" privacy, but trackers also misuse them to gather more information about you. The audience seemed to be interested in that topic and asked some insightful questions.

The W3C has slammed Google for continuing to support third-party cookies in Chrome, even though the privacy-invading tracking technology is not good for the Web and can harm users.

Norwegian Finance Minister Trygve Slagsvold Vedum has proposed a global tax on personal data, inspired by Norways resource rent tax model.
Your personal data is not a resource to be misused but a critical asset that must be protected. Taxing the usage (or misusage) of personal data won't address the real issue: the unchecked power of Big Tech.
By taxing the utilization of personal data for economic gain, politicians send the message that the way Big Tech exploits personal data is deemed acceptable. Its time for meaningful action to safeguard our digital rights.
Regulation must come before taxation. Read our take on the Norwegian Minister of Finances proposal

My bad, I meant to write . In all fairness, MS does not seem to claim that the VPN can protect against hacking.
Microsoft Edge's new built-in VPN apparently offers to "Protect against online tracking" while "You will be signed in, which will back up your browsing data".
As I'm getting older, I'm also getting more confused about some aspects of tech I thought I knew.
