🔐 Benvenuti nella sezione Sicurezza Informatica - gruppo di resistenza al capitalismo della sorveglianza
Uno spazio di resistenza digitale contro il capitalismo della sorveglianza e il potere concentrato delle Big Tech.
«Sostenere di non preoccuparsi del diritto alla privacy perché non si ha nulla da nascondere è come dire di non interessarsi alla libertà di parola perché non si ha nulla da dire.» — Edward Snowden
Questa community è pensata per chi vuole dire basta al tracciamento, alla profilazione e alla manipolazione algoritmica dei Big Tech.
Qua difendiamo la privacy come diritto fondamentale e crediamo nella costruzione di un'alternativa ai servizi ei Big Tech fondata su software libero, autonomia tecnologica e anche per una progressiva degooglizzazione.
Un gruppo pensato per chi vuole rimanere informato su tutto ciò che riguarda la sicurezza informatica:
- 🛡️ Minacce alla sicurezza personale: aggiornamenti su come i Big Tech tentano di prendersi tutti i tuoi dati.
- 🔍 Strumenti di protezione dai GAFAM: consigli e aggiornamenti per rendere il proprio PC e smatphone più sicuro.
- 🧩 Ispirati da Edward Snowden facciamo riflessioni e approfondimenti sulla privacy e sulla sorveglianza
- 📰 risorse, guide e segnalazioni utili per chi si interessa di sicurezza digitale
💣 Degooglizza il tuo mondo.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.
