Any mastodon server running people care to help me get an instance back up after I somehow messed it up? I am over my head.

Today is World #BigBrotherDay and the #PirateParty is campaigning to show the insane growth of #CCTV #Surveillance cams everywhere. Tons of cams by official institutions and and individuals placing street-facing doorbell (like #privacy-horrific #Amazon Ring) are watchind you.

In picture above Pirates decorate camera's with colored balloons to attract attention to them.

Also noteworthy: #openEngiadina by @pukkamustard can now load #OSM surveillance cams..

I checked website traffic stats and was pleased to see my first referrer of the day came from privacy search engine Mojeek.com. I actually get quite a bit of traffic from them so it’s not unusual. https://www.mojeek.com

I wrote a blog post about a blog post Mojeek wrote about Privacy Browser. It is blog post inception.

@fatboy only thing I would say is that #Mojeek is fully independent.

Qwant has a partnership with MS: https://betterweb.qwant.com/en/how-microsoft-tools-strengthen-qwant/

Use to go to Swisscows - like their semantic data recognition but pull off Bing.

Mojeek never fails to surprise me and if it strays too far gives you some alternate engine options at bottom of page.

One overlooked #mastodon feature I enjoy is knowing that reading a toot or opening an image isn't contributing to some advertising algorithm's dataset on me and my purchasing preferences.

You don’t want your “private” search engine to have a paid relationship with an upstream non-private search engine for the same reason you don’t want your browser to have a paid relationship with your search engine: Because, sooner or later, that paid relationship will result in tracking.
