Cosy Corner of Privacy

Week 10, March 4 2025

Hope your first week of March is off to a good start!

May I suggest some digital home improvements?

Switch one chat a week from WhatsApp to Signal.
Don't try to fix anyone's moral compass on social media, unless they are open to it.
Cleanse your home screen from unnecessary apps.
Draft and share in Fileverse ddocs instead of Google Sheets.
Move sensitive information and your seed phrases to good old analogue paper.
Sage your devices.

We've been cooking over at Web3Privacy! Here's some updates:

PG's Article - Rethinking Freedom in the Digital Age: The Rise of the Carepunks
Web3Privacy Now Hackathon applications are now open!
