Reclaiming RSS

“Before Twitter, before algorithmic timelines filtered our reality for us, before surveillance capitalism, there was RSS: Really Simple Syndication … As we move away from the centralised web to the peer web, it’s time to rediscover, re-embrace, and reclaim RSS.”

It looks like the great state of California is following Europe's example with new #GDPR like #privacy regulations #WillOfThePeople

I've written a lot, in other places about how the modern web is a trashfire. I'm not going to re-hash all those ideas here, but I'll sum up:

- Massive downloads for no reason
- Arbitrary code execution
- Tracking you constantly (advertising)
- Increasingly silo'd
- Tracking you constantly (NSA Panopticon)
- Bad Laws (we'll discuss this at length.)
- EME/DRM in browsers

#nextcloud was swept up in the attempt of the Russian gov't to censor @Telegram@twitter.com - our IP address was blocked.

https://isitblockedinrussia.com/?host=https%3A%2F%2Fnextcloud.com
We requested unblocking by @roskomnadzor@twitter.com
Happy that gov't censorship is messy. Might not be, some day, so #DECENTRALIZE !
