No matter who you are, if you are running a platform or a making a product that collects user data, you need to have a plan for what happens when the government shows up and asks for it, you need to share that policy with that users, and publish a transparency report.
New, by me at this.weekinsecurity.com: Health wearable giant Oura says it has received government demands for users' information (because Oura does not use end-to-end encryption). Will Oura say how often it gets demands for user data, and how often Oura hands over users' data to authorities?
Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

If you work in tech, and are ever approached by any crypto sh*tcoin even for a harmless ask ("here's some money for you/your project! Take it! No strings attached, promise!"), a warning: Talked with someone who took it. Seemed too good to be true. Death threats to them and family followed.

I'm going to put aside the weird feeling of seeing a saint born after I was, but since we know the guy was big on halo 2 there are now people who in 2004-2005 got fragged by a saint on xbox live
Pope Leo XIV canonized Carlo Acutis, a 15-year-old who died in 2006, as the Catholic Church’s first millennial saint on Sunday.
I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme. So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”
