MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2017 09:56:30 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @uddaboktips Det är ok, jag accepterar denna konsekvens för rikets säkerhet. För din del finns det i alla fall säkert ett kryphål för indirekta antydningar om topphemliga projekt som du kan använda dig av för att komma undan straff. -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2017 08:59:42 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ Pga Blogger inte visade "tack för din kommentar" så vet jag inte om den kom fram. Så jag skriver här istället:
»Säkerhetsfunktioner och systemfunktioner i systemet får inte vara i konflikt med varandra och därigenom förhindra varandras avsedda funktion.»
Så en kärnvapenmissils säkerhetsfunktioner får inte stå i konflikt med dess systemfunktionalitet? .) -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2017 08:53:20 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @platano Very true. My point is however that those things (leaks) can never be reduced to zero due to people being people. However, I don't want to see a system where these things can happen by accident. Compare with the policy changes at Facebook, where suddenly things you _thought_ you had set to private suddenly weren't because Facebook's idea of a "friend" (or what a friend's friend could see, etc.) has changed drastically a couple of times afaik. -

MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2017 08:19:25 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @nightpool @cwebber Oh, and for modern "e-mail but with privacy" I would say !xmpp's solved all of the issues at hand. -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2017 08:18:10 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @nightpool @cwebber Essentially, I would like to have the discussion of "what happens when I click repeat and the post is private but I want to share it with the world?" to be somewhat settled among the _users_ (not us technicians) who will get baffled at the simple post privacy switcharoo. -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Wednesday, 06-Sep-2017 08:11:46 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @nightpool @cwebber Whether e-mail is used or not is more a question of legacy than that it would respect anyone's privacy.
My argumentation is primarily that an environment where the only difference between publishing your sensitive posts/pictures privately or publicly etc. is the value of some checkbox - then it's not appropriate for private communication. Even less so when that checkbox in practice is on a remote server governed by a remote admin.
E-mail clients, for comparison, don't have a "share this post" button that potentially goes worldwide. Public mailing lists are explicitly opt-in and there's no real notion of a "public e-mail inbox".
Federated social webs however don't work as they're dreamt about without eventually sharing information, metadata and posts to larger and larger - less controllable - groups of people.
Centralised systems can control this more - but once you go federated then the end station you will reach is full-on public socialising. -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Tuesday, 05-Sep-2017 22:40:10 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @cwebber Indeed you and others involved with AP spec development have been very inclusive, inviting and encouraging. I very much appreciate your (and everyone else's) efforts that have been put into #ActivityPub. -
Christine Lemmer-Webber (cwebber@octodon.social)'s status on Tuesday, 05-Sep-2017 22:03:15 UTC Christine Lemmer-Webber @bob I think there are quite a few benefits that GNU Social could get by supporting AP. I hope there isn't too much "burn" by seeing it as a "Mastodon vs GNU Social" battle. I tried pretty hard to avoid that; @mmn and @deadsuperhero both at least can verify that I did try to get GNU Social and everyone else involved. I know that's not an obligation for GNU Social to adopt AP, not saying it is, just saying healing the "fractured federation" has always been a large reason for me working on AP.

MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Tuesday, 05-Sep-2017 22:37:58 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @cwebber The only reason !GNUsocial doesn't have #ActivityPub yet is because I have a fulltime job and noone else has been up for the task .]
Though I'm pretty sure it'd still just be the 100% public parts of AP that would be used/promoted, as I'm pretty much convinced there's no such thing as privacy in the social sphere anyway and anyone using "private" communication in an environment like !GNUsocial or #Mastodon is fooled either by the platform, the administrator or other users. (anything accessible via a web browser isn't made for privacy) -

MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Sunday, 03-Sep-2017 08:17:19 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ I'm not sure whether detecting various dark matter with honey bee waggle dances or with condensed matter theory seminar abstracts is better, but at least one of them sounds rather fun. -

MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Friday, 01-Sep-2017 21:37:45 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @cwebber While of course the @ mention syntax isn't part of !OStatus per say, it was to show that lookup of identities is only preferred to be done using WebFinger because it allows a pretty human-friendly (email-like) syntax.
...though now that I think about it maybe Salmon doesn't have a (specified) alternate method of distributing the private keys... But PuSH/WebSub would work just fine. -
MMN-o ✅⃠ (mmn@social.umeahackerspace.se)'s status on Friday, 01-Sep-2017 21:34:29 UTC MMN-o ✅⃠ @cwebber No, !OStatus doesn't require webfinger IDs, you can adress with @example.com/subfolder/user if there's proper markup there. -
