[MINISTRY] stop being racist - The Bee: Non-racist terminology replacements
by Zig the N.g 31 Mar '20

31 Mar '20

The Bee provides a helpful list of non-racist terminologies to replace racist terms that unthoughtful (at least nominally racist) racist people keep using. Please stop. PSA: Stop Using Racist Terminology https://babylonbee.com/news/psa-stop-using-racist-terminology With the rise of the novel coronavirus, there has been an uptick in people saying racist things like suggesting the virus came from the region it did in fact come from. So we're encouraging our readers to avoid problematic terms like "Wuhan virus," "Chinese coronavirus," "Kung Flu," "Black Pepper Death," "Chopsick," "Srirachoo," "Terracougha Army," or the "Great Whoop of China." Definitely don't use any of those. And certainly never name a disease, product, or cultural trend after the area it's from. Instead, use our handy guide to avoid problematic, racist language: Instead of Say: --------------------- -------------------------------------- Wuhan virus Lung pao sicken Black death Death of colour Indian giver Elizabeth Warren Canadian bacon Geopolitically irrelevant, inferior bacon Mexican jumping beans Latinx acrobatic moth larvae Chinese dictator Austere totalitarian scholar Japanese cartoons It's called Anime and it's totally normal for adults to watch, mum!

Cryptocurrency: Cloudflare Ditches ReCaptcha for HCaptcha
by grarpamp 31 Mar '20

https://old.reddit.com/r/hCaptcha/comments/fpxzg8/hcaptcha_is_a_brick_wall_… https://old.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/comments/frtaiv/cloudflare_has_swit… https://www.hcaptcha.com/ " hCaptcha is a way for every website in the world to create a new revenue stream from the work their visitors already do. Simply put, when website users prove their humanity via a captcha (to keep out bots and spam), website owners get paid. " " Lately there's a lot of concern over Google having significant power over us on the Internet. Remember the whole CCN fiasco from their tweak on their Algorithm? Well, reCAPTCHA is their product which is easy to set up, weak in security, and essentially helps them train their driverless cars AI for free. It's weak by design which allows for captcha solvers to beat them like 2captcha and DeathbyCaptcha. We're different, hCaptcha helps connect companies (usually AI) who are looking to get their Data labeled or more to sites that have visitors who solve the labeling for them. Of course this is not free for them, but it is free for anyone to implement on their Website to earn from visitors solving them! So we're essentially running on the HUMAN Protocol Engine, and we're going to be implementing a Token system called HMT, because it's much easier to handle Micropayments and using the Proof of Balance algorithm it allows labelers in the Data Exchange to prioritize their tasks. We've already got many sites up using our hCaptcha widget, and we're looking to ask the folks in r/Cryptocurrency on what you guys think, and if you have any questions. We recently set up our own Subreddit and feel it's necessary to get feedback from the Crypto community and hope to address any concerns! "

Re: [liberationtech] COVID-19 (Update) U.S. Cellphone tracking

Users may wish to select an accurate private test company, strong liberation, privacy preserving, etc... over some authoritarian government body that only gets 2 out of 3 test param right, does not test blood sample under full realtime custody of the user to monitor their own test and personally destroy after, welds your ass behind a steel door, etc. P2P proximity apps are interesting tools for these situations, but be very wary establishing granting slippery powers, forever databases, ID, tracking, etc to central "authorities" in the process. Also users don't really care as much to "record a [risky] contact forever", that is the old after the fact tracking database surveillance anti-privacy state apologist mindset. And, were it the sole operation mode, would be entirely useless/unsafe in the realtime moment. Users really just want to gauge "should I have some reasonable or particular interaction with this person right now at this moment". Of course there is always delay continuum from test, to disease acquisition, to spreading phase, to later discovery in later test, a window of risk. That operation mode would require a distributed social overlay network personal test repository to backcheck old contacts against, and mandatory time based contact record destruction falloff curve on each users device and or in the distributed net. Making both users contact history anonymous, and or ensuring privacy self destruct of contact falloff, is an implementation challenge. P2P proximity app could even offer other potential decision metrics to proximity peers, such as number of unique contacts over time, distance traveled, risky or evidencial places visited, degree-of-freedom depth to other pass/fails, ranking and voting on testing entity pki/ca levels of trust, etc. None of this requires any government exist power or intrusion at all. Good things can be recognized and achieved voluntarily. Last, beware the very potential disgusting impact of "social scoring" "caste enforcing" etc that even P2P schemes can enable and devolve into.

This is a message to confirm that my previous PGP key was compromised and should be considered compromised since its creation one week ago. I have made a new PGP key and have already uploaded the revokation of the old one, as well as the new one to the MIT Keyserver. I will begin to upload these keys to more servers to speed up its distribution. The revocation message explains in more detail.
