After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel 😩
Email is now an oligopoly, a service gatekept by a few big companies which does not follow the principles of net neutrality.

“So when [people of color, native americans, immigrants, the poor, homeless, sex workers, allies] and others call to ‘abolish the police,’ they are NOT calling for a downfall to law and order. They are asking for the BEGINNING of it.”

No industry -- not airlines, not hotels, not cruise ships -- should be bailed out. They can stay in business by borrowing at rock-bottom rates, using their assets as collateral.
Taxpayer money should be used to bail out people, not corporations.

one of my fellow 2600 geeks is looking to recruit short technical talks in the uiuc area. heck, if you can skype one, contact ian and tell him spike sent you. the talks are 15 min followed by 45 min of doing actual stuff.
We're looking for speakers for @SIGpwny (UIUC's undergrad security club) for this fall and spring semester (now until May).
We strongly prefer concise technical presentations followed by activities for our students to solve.
If you're interested, please get in touch!

“The message coming from Facebook’s leadership is not about how it has failed its users. Instead it's about how users —and especially developers —have failed Facebook, and how Facebook needs to step in to take exclusive control over your data.” xitter.gq/eff/status/98523121860…
By locking down its APIs, Facebook is giving people less power over their information and reserving that power for itself. In effect, Facebook is narrowing and eliminating the ways that legitimate users can engage with their own data. eff.org/deeplinks/2018/04/to…
These are good people, and a good cause! xitter.gq/erowid/status/91247708…
