-----BEGIN ENCRYPTION TWEET THREAD-----
New to encryption? Check out our illustrated three-part primer on important encryption concepts for beginners.
ssd.eff.org/en/module/what…
Start with What Should I Know About Encryption, and learn how you can use encryption to protect your devices and your messages. ssd.eff.org/en/module/what… Image of a laptop with a lock on it.
Then, learn more about the different types of encryption. Learn all about keys (symmetric, public and private, oh my!).

Finally, check out a deep dive on how people use public key cryptography, how exactly private and public keys are used in end-to-end encryption schemes, and how to defend against machine-in-the-middle attacks.

-----END ENCRYPTION TWEET THREAD-----

Once again, Facebook has put its profits over our privacy. nytimes.com/2018/12/18/tec…
Facebook should not be sharing users' private data with its business partners without users' knowledge and freely-given, specific, unambiguous consent.
This latest revelation underscores the need to strengthen data privacy laws in California and elsewhere to ensure users can hold companies accountable, and to resist efforts in Congress to preempt state data privacy protections.

The @SFChronicle's Editorial Board agrees: California's blanket collection and retention of genetic profiles from people arrested but never convicted of any crime is enormously overbroad sfchronicle.com/opinion/editor…
"[I]n a system where people are still innocent until proved guilty, there is just no legitimate reason for the state to collect and store the DNA profiles of people whose only infraction was being arrested and booked into jail." sfchronicle.com/opinion/editor…
The state's failure to automatically expunge DNA samples and profiles from the hundreds of thousands of Californians who were not ultimately convicted of a crime is unconstitutional, and we're suing to end it. eff.org/press/releases…

Shipping & Transit filed 107 patent lawsuits, earning more than $700,000 in one year—a campaign a federal judge called "predatory." Today it's bankrupt. wsj.com/articles/pushb…
1A Auto Inc., an online auto-parts retailer, beat Shipping & Transit and was awarded $120,000 in attorneys’ fees and costs, but never got paid. "I believe they pocketed all the money," said 1A's lawyer.
We wrote about Shipping & Transit's bankruptcy here: eff.org/deeplinks/2018…

For some of us, too, it /IS/ all men, or has BECOME all men. Saying “Not All Men,” then, is telling us our experience isn’t real, which— fun fact— makes you one of those men.

Instead — 👏🏼 ACTIONABLE ADVICE AHEAD 👏🏼 (thread)
Apologize for your gender (leave the part where you blame society for how you’re socialized until later— she may even bring it up herself! We know!), thereby acknowledging & validating her experience, and ask yourself or even her (!) How can I make THIS experience better?

E.g.
Hang on, I have to get a beer.

And dinner— it’s not /just/ bc of this thread! 🤣

#Thread: Rough translation on Rajini's recent statement on RMM activities.

I'd like to clarify the false rumors stating RMM works are happening without my permission. All activities regarding RMM are happening with my knowledge & permission.

#RajinikanthPoliticalRevolution
Already by last year May month, I said that "I won't allow people near me who have thoughts of getting posts & earning money when I enter politics. So, those people stay away right now."

#RajinikanthPoliticalRevolution #Thread #Rajinikanth
Didn't say it for word-sake. We are entering politics to bring out a new political culture for a good political change. If we've to do politics like others, why should we enter politics?

[THREAD] Today @RANDCorporation released a major study of the @gatesfoundation's efforts to improve teacher effectiveness through evaluation & human capital reforms. I've waded through the 500+ page report so you don't have to. Here is what I took away.

rand.org/pubs/research_…
If you are looking for an overview, this won't be it. Even the executive summary was 25 pages! Check out these articles published today by @matt_barnum in @Chalkbeat and @KevinMahnken in @The74:

the74million.org/study-multi-ye…
First - the headlines will all focus on the impact estimates, but IMO the real contribution of the study is the rich qualitative and survey data the researchers collected over multiple years. The story here is really about implementation - what actually happened on the ground.

This infographic is going viral now. But it is wrong.

Ni guideline untuk Pilihanraya Perubatan. Ini bukan guideline SPR.
Ini cara menandakan kertas undi mengikut panduan SPR.

Ini semua cara yang betul. Boleh letak simbol yang simple macam tick, X, bulat atau titik. Asalkan pada baris yang sama dgn calon pilihan.
Jangan letak simbol pelik2 macam KLCC, kereta atau muka Rosmah. Jangan tulis "I love BN/Pakatan/K-pop" atau apa2 mesej.

Keep it simple.
