"Creating a single interface for government data about us is dangerous if it works, and also dangerous if it doesn't," EFF's Cindy Cohn writes in the Mercury News and East Bay Times. Fighting tech-enabled tyranny and protecting privacy and security is a team sport. Are you ready to join the fight?

Today, I'm retiring my email newsletter and doubling down on RSS. Some call this 1990s news-delivery format old-fashioned; I say it's the future.
My blog post at https://jordanmechner.com explains why.
Drop me a comment to say if you (A) agree, (B) disagree, (C) What the heck is RSS? (I'm guessing most Mastodon users already know, probably better than I do; but for those born after 1990...)
