that would mean the death of street photography. Do you have any sources for those cases?

photographing in public space is still a right. There are exceptions, but they are understandable.

Ainsi, la simple captation d’une image dans un lieu public ne suffit pas à autoriser sa diffusion, surtout si cette diffusion peut porter atteinte à la dignité ou à l’intégrité de la personne photographiée. Le droit à l’image en France se distingue par son approche stricte.

Contrairement à d’autres pays, où la captation d’images dans des lieux publics peut être plus tolérée, le législateur français a choisi de protéger de manière rigoureuse la vie privée des individus.

Par conséquent, toute photographie d’une personne identifiable sans son consentement préalable peut engager la responsabilité civile du photographe, qui peut être contraint à des réparations pour le préjudice subi par la victime

it very much depends on the context.

1. Les limites du droit à l'image

Bien que le droit à l'image soit un principe fondamental, il existe certaines exceptions qui permettent une captation et une diffusion d'images sans le consentement préalable de la personne photographiée. Ces exceptions sont généralement liées à des intérêts publics ou à des contextes spécifiques :

- Les lieux publics et le droit à l'information : Dans les espaces publics, la captation d'images est souvent permise, notamment dans le cadre d'événements d'intérêt général (manifestations, cérémonies, etc.). Cependant, même dans ces cas, la diffusion de ces images peut être soumise à des conditions strictes. Par exemple, la diffusion d'une image prise lors d'un événement public ne doit pas dénaturer le propos ou porter atteinte à la réputation des personnes présentes.

- Les personnes publiques : Les personnalités publiques, telles que les politiciens, les artistes ou les sportifs, bénéficient d'une protection moins stricte de leur droit à l'image. En effet, leur statut entraîne une certaine forme de renonciation à ce droit lorsqu'ils apparaissent dans des contextes liés à leur activité professionnelle. Toutefois, cela ne signifie pas qu'ils sont dépourvus de droits ; toute exploitation commerciale de leur image nécessite souvent une autorisation.

- L'usage artistique : Dans le cadre de la création artistique, certaines œuvres peuvent utiliser des images de personnes identifiables sans leur consentement, à condition que l'œuvre ait un caractère artistique et ne porte pas atteinte à la dignité de la personne représentée. Cette notion est cependant sujette à interprétation et peut donner lieu à des litiges.

+1 for fedora kde

I’ve tried dozens of distros this year. Kept arch for my personal use and fedora for shared. Fedora was the easiest to setup with everything working as they should out of the “box”.

unless you use a touchscreen, don’t install gnome

@ImminentOrbit@lemmy.world

like i wrote under your last post, install netGuard as a VPN and activate “manage system apps” which will permit you to block google calling home

also, with ADB you can uninstall almost anything (be careful!)

you can also choose a dns which would block those (mullvad, for example

netGuard ☞ https://f-droid.org/packages/eu.faircode.netguard

😁

I have always used Mullvad Leta as my search engine,

always? Isn’t mullvad leta online for ± 2 years?

i’m guessing that it may “help” if a person is already being targeted and now the phone model also is known

🤷

practically one isn’t better than the other. But after the founder of proton came out in support of the Trump government, i started moving. I still have my proton account but i’m paying for Tuta.

☞ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_perception

Selective perception is the tendency to not notice and more quickly forget stimuli that cause emotional discomfort and contradict prior beliefs. For example, a teacher may have a favorite student because they are biased by in-group favoritism. The teacher ignores the student’s poor attainment. Conversely, they might not notice the progress of their least favorite student. It can also occur when consuming mass media, allowing people to see facts and opinions they like while ignoring those that do not fit with particular opinions, values, beliefs, or frame of reference. Psychologists believe this process occurs automatically.

Selective perception has roots in cognitive psychology, where it is studied as a fundamental part of how individuals filter and process information based on biases, expectations, and past experiences. It is closely related to concepts like confirmation bias—favoring information that aligns with one’s beliefs—and cognitive dissonance, the discomfort of holding conflicting thoughts, both of which shape perception. Its applications extend beyond psychology, playing key roles in marketing (shaping consumer focus), politics (influencing voter perception), and mental health (understanding biases in disorders), highlighting its impact on both individual behaviors and societal trends.

depending on how you look, what your hair & skin colour is, you may be checked “randomly” while you’re walking home or when you’re crossing borders on a train. If your ID isn’t valid, they won’t just “not care about it”

that polite policeman passing you by with a “good day” would wake me up on the train to check harass me to see if i’m hiding who knows what in my testicles 🤬

Maybe it’s just personal experience

your experience doesn’t reflect Europe, it is a commentary about what you see in the mirror

I hate AZERTY so much it hurts my brains

Don’t say cash - lots of places don’t take cash any more.

where do you live?

here, afaik, they’re obliged by law to accept cash

ps: i checked. Cash can be refused only under specific conditions (Dirty, torn, counterfeit, more than 50 pieces &c

When a vanilla GSI starts, up to 10 different Google servers are contacted and private data is transmitted. A vanilla GSI transmits several hundred megabytes of private data to Google every day.

LeOS does not have these connections and data transfers.

after @Nicro@discuss.tchncs.de

LeOS sounds interesting indeed. Why isn’t it mentioned on privacy communities (unlike Graphene and Lineage) ?

it doesn’t.

you’re free from Windows and you can still use Excel which is necessary for your work.

did you try running excel on wine?

i’m using an app to reach sh.itjust.works servers through an ISP i pay for. Why would firefox, for example, pay for any of this?

internets were there before Google. I’m sure there are many people on lemmy who remember google as a new search engine they tried.

internet would be different, like it was different, if these hogs like google and facebook are banned from collecting and selling user data. Fuck surveillance capitalism. (fuck capitalism while you’re at it)

i have simplex, element, briar and even rattlegram.

with messengers “a different experience” is interesting (for me) but if the people i’m communicating with are not sharing those “experiences”, what good do they bring? Am i going to chat with myself?

Getting people to use Signal instead of WhatsApp was a challenge already. Now almost all my contacts are on Signal.

How am i going to get people to use any of these apps considering that Signal has no shortfalls (like belonging to Facebook and spying on you)?

Use a messenger that doesn’t require to to log in to view data stored on your phone. I’m sure the data is there, I’m just not allowed to see it.

sorry, I don’t understand what you mean.
