“ I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle. “

I launched a new blog this week. It's stupidly fast, uses zero external JS or CSS resources, is responsive, and supports modern features many sites don’t like dark style support. But Google just emailed me saying they might deprioritize it on Google because it doesn’t use AMP.

If you still need a reason to switch to more secure messengers (i.e. @ThreemaApp@twitter.com @wire@twitter.com @matrixdotorg@twitter.com or even better: a @xmpp@twitter.com client with #OMEMO):

Do you need a DNS server without censorship and for privacy?

@Digitalcourage runs a DNS server located in Germany that doesn't log normal user requests:

👉 46.182.19.48
👉 2a02: 2970: 1002: 0: 5054: 8aff: fe12: db49
👉 Encrypted requests DNS-over-TLS

Basically, there is now no reason to make any other action comedies after Hobbs and Shaw. Nothing more can be done with this genre, thank you very much.

If you have Facebook "like" buttons embedded on your website, it could make you liable for breaking GDPR privacy laws, even if it's Facebook doing the illegal stuff:

https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/07/29/eu_gdpr_facebook_like_button/

You can protect your site from legal liability (and protect your users' privacy) by removing all Facebook like buttons.

Please tell your employers/organisations about this ruling, it may help convince them that Facebook is toxic (or at least that embedded like buttons are toxic).
