"Digital sovereignty," if taken to mean we should switch from unaccountable American companies to unaccountable European companies, is largely missing the point of the problem. In a globalized economy the two are going to be functionally indistinguishable. What we need is non-profit digital infrastructure that's not beholden to the perversions of financialization.

I want to include this excerpt from the Matrix response:

Your PoC correctly demonstrates that the Olm 3DH implementation in vodozemac does not currently perform the all-zero DH output check. As we're sure you're aware, the check for contributory behaviour in X25519 is a contentious topic among cryptographers, with some calling for it, but others like RFC 7748[1] calling it optional or even arguing against it (e.g. Trevor Perrin[2]). We've previously considered adding it but ultimately avoided it due to the conclusion that there's no practical security impact on Matrix. In other places like SAS/ECIES we explicitly reject non-contributory outputs because those handshakes can be used in unauthenticated contexts where an all-zero DH output could directly collapse channel security.

The [2] points to moderncrypto.org/mail-archive/

Which is talking about the Diffie-Hellman primitive, not what protocols building atop ECDH should do.

Something seems to have changed with the rendering of text from the plugin onto the Fediverse.

You used to be able to have paragraphs, bold, italic and even bullets, and they'd render if you did it in the right way.

I noticed that no longer seems possible - even line returns are removed. Did a quick test - copying the text of this post: social.coop/@RememberingStephe exactly and instead of looking like image 1, it looks like image 2…

Screengrab of the linked Post as originally posted in March 2025 – it is split into paragraphs with an image and link at the bottom.This second screengrab is the same post published today (Feb 18 2026) but squashed into a single paragraph, cut off and with no line breaks.
