With anti-libre software, we are not users, we are used.

We can't prove this. When they get a copy, nothing will bring our data back.

A social app for creatives, Cara grew from 40k to 650k users in a week because artists are fed up with Meta’s AI policies | TechCrunch (techcrunch.com)

Artists have finally had enough with Meta’s predatory AI policies, but Meta’s loss is Cara’s gain. An artist-run, anti-AI social platform, Cara has grown from 40,000 to 650,000 users within the last week, catapulting it to the top of the App Store charts....

To get abused again by yet more anti-libre software, malware. Some people never learn.

autonomoususer , (edited )

Tell them this:

🚩 Anti-libre software, Cara, bans us from removing malicious source code. We don't have time to waste your life repeating the same failure.

They might ask:

What is anti-libre? We don't control. It controls us.

And:

How do we know? It fails to include a libre software license file, like the AGPL.

Say this instead:

open source libre software ('open source' is created to subvert libre software)

closed anti-libre (closed implies open, see above)

We are the product. (paid stuff abuses too) With anti-libre software, we are no the user, we are used.

More in video here or text here.

autonomoususer ,

Don't focus on specific apps or you will start all over again from the beginning when every new piece of anti-libre software, malware, appears.

autonomoususer , (edited )

'Open source' is created to subvert libre software. The ban alone is a 🚩 red flag.

autonomoususer , (edited )

Literally the first search result is here but even better is this video here.

autonomoususer , (edited )

They don’t care if it’s anti-libre.

And that's why keep getting abused again and again. So, this is what we must target. Unless we like wasting all of our time just to restart when the next malware arrives because they don't see the difference, see it's anti-libre.

autonomoususer ,

Source, or did they include an AGPL, libre software license?

autonomoususer , (edited )

People try that and we still get news like this but your feedback is welcome.

autonomoususer ,

What do you think bans it? Copyright law, unless they include, for example, a libre software license.

autonomoususer , (edited )

most people don’t really care if libre or not. Libre or anti-libre is mostly tech jargon for non-tech people.

Yes, that's the problem to solve.

They just want to be part of their own communities and be where the party is.

Which they can't when their software keeps abusing them, anti-libre software. So, we connect the effect to this root cause.

autonomoususer ,

Freedom software

autonomoususer ,

You know its license changes what we are allowed to do with it?

autonomoususer , (edited )

Meta uses loaded language to takeover our computing.

autonomoususer , (edited )

Please, stop making yourself look gullible. You have absolutely no proof it's safe but we know this anti-libre software bans us from removing malicious source code.

autonomoususer ,

Maybe yours does.

autonomoususer ,

Anti-libre software, Adobe anything, bans us from removing malicous source code and service as a software substitute is even worse, so else did we expect?

autonomoususer , (edited )

KeePassXC/DX+Syncthing already does this. I have no reason to fund Proton Pass instead.

autonomoususer , (edited )

Stop projecting

autonomoususer ,

Seems elitist to say people can't get two apps. Surprised to see this called lunacy, so it's good I commented to see this response.

autonomoususer ,

GDPR has never stoped them breaking laws. Fines are the cost of doing business. When we give anti-libre software our data, it's game over.

autonomoususer ,

So, they already did it. This will never bring our data back.

autonomoususer ,

while also allowing companies to recoup costs for services they provide

Or just stop replacing our software with your service.

autonomoususer ,

Wasn't clear enough, so I said it. I fully support funding development of libre software.

Anti-libre software, iOS, bans us from proving its claims. Stop paying Apple to pre-infect our devices and spy on us too.

My devices need libre software, not a business.

autonomoususer ,

Anti-libre software, iOS, bans us from removing malicous source code. Don't let this malware infect you.

autonomoususer , (edited )

iOS > android with Google

They ban us from proving this. Both malware, anti-libre software, ban us from proving it's claims.

autonomoususer ,

Apple is more secure... iOS is certainly more private.

False, anti-libre software bans us from proving it's claims.

autonomoususer , (edited )

Their posts won't change much, so obviously our replies
don't either.

autonomoususer , (edited )

Where did I say that?

autonomoususer , (edited )

This means when someone says 'this malware is abusing me' the answer is always some version of 'remove that malware'. Asking the same question a million different ways, a million different times, doesn't change its answer.

autonomoususer , (edited )

To get abused again by yet more anti-libre software, malware. Some people never learn.

autonomoususer ,

Competing to abuse us? These fantasies never work in the real world.

autonomoususer ,

This doesn't work.

42 key points of the secret #EUGoingDark surveillance plan for the new EU Commission (www.patrick-breyer.de)

After Sunday‘s European elections, the EU is planning to reintroduce indiscriminate communications data retention without suspicion and force manufacturers to allow law enforcement access to digital devices such as smartphones and cars....

autonomoususer ,

They attack us again and again, so stopping this does not go far enough. We must create laws to destroy their privacy.

autonomoususer ,

Any libre software with voice chat more decentralised than this?

autonomoususer ,

WARNING Anti-libre software, FUTO Keyboard and Google Play, bans us from removing malicious source code.

autonomoususer ,

You're a bit late.

autonomoususer ,

What evidence?

autonomoususer ,

Don't waste time your life on harm reduction over solving the root, removing Discord completely.

autonomoususer ,

You don't know how to post from an alt account?

autonomoususer , (edited )

Worse, anti-libre software, Discord, bans us from proving it's claims, if it ever claims privacy, security, anything.

autonomoususer , (edited )

I would invest more into stopping 'friends' encourging me to get abused than micro-optimising the malware infecting me. Not saying don't break it down into steps.

autonomoususer , (edited )

🚩 Anti-libre software bans us from proving it’s claims. This is worse, service as a software substitute.

autonomoususer ,

It was invented to derail libre software.

autonomoususer ,

Contributing isn't the point. AGPL helps us keep control of our own computing.

autonomoususer ,

Then, you would know anti-libre software bans, not you, us separately and together from proving its claims and removing malicious source code.

autonomoususer ,

SimpleX is libre software and decentralised, the most decentralised voice chat here, so why spread anything else?
