After you have committed an act of easy sabotage, resist any temptation to wait around and see what happens.

It has been 0️⃣ days since I saw someone post an image where they had covered up their address on a package but not covered up the barcode underneath

So here's your safety reminder: always, always, ALWAYS censor any barcodes on mail and packages when photographing them! It is often your address or something very close to your address (such as your street). Barcodes may be printed very faintly or in fluorescent ink; double-check before assuming one isn't there, and cover it no matter how faint it seems! If it's a bunch of lines of any kind, it's a barcode!

@futurebird Google’s education push is incomprehensible until you think that it only serves to make schoolchildren either hate them (probably not) or more likely to make them dependent on Google forever

You see this in the push for Chromebooks in schools. What is the point of them? It’s to get them dependent on Google services forever… And by being cheap, it undercuts Windows and Macs. Which is fine, until you realise that this means that there will be generations of children who will have no idea how to use any mainstream OS at all when they enter the world of work. Chromebooks have zero use in the workplace because they are so limited in their capabilities

Security / privacy heads up: It looks like Google is now publicly linking the phone number on Google Pixel phones (or at least Pixel 6 and up) to any Gmail/Google account you've logged into that phone with.

"Phone number verification is turned on by default. We verify the phone number and add them to all Google Accounts that are signed in on the device. This applies to both current and future accounts and phone numbers. "

I.e., if you write erotica, have an Only Fans, do sex work, etc., and you have logged into your alt email addresses on your phone, Google will now make your personal phone number "findable" for anyone who has that email address.

This will potentially adversely affect a lot of (vulnerable and/or marginalized) people.

Everyone has been opted into this by default (because who has heard of consent or security in tech circles grrr).

To opt out:

1. On your phone, go to Settings, then next to your account name at the very top, go to "Google Services and Preferences".

2. Under “Privacy & security,” select Phone number verification.

3. Select whether to verify your phone number.

If you don't want your different identities linked and findable, make this change asap.

I hope that tech and especially infosec people and privacy advocates raise hell about this. (No one listens to the rest of us.)

*I don't work in tech, but I haven't seen tech people talk about this yet (from my limited Fedi vantage point).

Stay safe and keep your people safe.

You're welcome to boost or share this post, but if you see tech professionasl discuss it, I'd much rather you quote them, and if you discuss this outside of Fedi, please do *not* give me credit. I don't need reply guys coming at me, I just want to flag people on what might be a problem. Thanks for your understanding.
