My Post-PRISM checklist
- levosmetalo 13y agoWhy would you close Twitter, Github and onther similar services? All the data there is already public, so moving somewhere else and make it public again won't change anything regarding privacy.
- dualboot 13y agoIt's possible to use both Twitter and Github in a less public fashion.
- blkhawk 13y agothe point is not that its public - the $point seems to be that its too easy for a spy agency to directly access the data. yours and the data of many many many (ok everybody) others who use these services
- vertis 13y agoI pay for private GitHub hosting.
- dualboot 13y agoI use GitLab extensively and it has an acceptable level of friction:value for me.
- vertis 13y agoAs far as other public social sites go, they capture far more data about you than the status update, etc.
- blkhawk 13y agoWell I think the Point is that a self-made solution won't be directly parse able for the $NSA. As a minimum some type of scraping Spider would be needed that indexes the content. Then it would need classification. If everybody were to do this then the job of automatically indexing social relationships wold be much harder.
- rvschuilenburg 13y agoFYI: Move back to Android, install ParanoidAndroid. This will not help if you are going to install the Google Apps suite.
- vertis 13y agoYeah, actually I don't have a good solution here. But better an open source platform than one written by Apple.
- taktix 13y agoGreat list. Could you post your alternatives to each one once you're done?
- vertis 13y agoSure. I'll definitely expand the page out as I go. I just wanted to get everything I have to do recorded.
- micheljansen 13y agoA decent alternative for Google Analytics is Piwik. It's open source and can be self-hosted or you can pay for a SAAS version of it (though not sure if any exist outside of the US. The interface is not nearly as nice or powerful as the one offered by Google Analytics, but it's open and uses a simple SQL backend, so if you self-host it, it can basically do whatever you want it to do. A good alternative to Dropbox is Bittorrent Sync and Dokku looks like an interesting way to do your own Heroku (https://github.com/progrium/dokku https://github.com/progrium/dokku).
