Global peace and security.
Global peace and security.
Are you seriously asking?
If so, here the answer: It is usually used as a polite response when someone thanks you for doing something. It’s a way to acknowledge their gratitude.
I still hear it a lot. Together with so many alternatives, like “no problem”, " happy to help", “don’t mention it”, " glad to assist", “anytime”, “it was nothing”, “my pleasure”, " sure thing"… and I’m sure there are more.
Hold on.
There’s reasons to kill someone‽
How do you know?
And you haven’t even reached Nestlé yet…
Just naming a company isn’t particularly useful. Some context would be great, so others can hate the company too. 🫠
Bookmarked, you superstar! 🌟
Get a day younger for the double dose.
Online privacy is not something that anyone should take lightly. It is a matter of protecting personal data and one’s human rights. Personal data can include anything that identifies you or reveals something about you (e.g. your health records, browsing history, etc.). This data can be - and is - collected, stored, analyzed, and often sold by third parties without your consent or knowledge. This in turn can lead to serious consequences for you.
To name just two examples. Advertisers can use your personal data to target you with ads that manipulate your behavior or preferences. Governments can use your personal data to monitor your activities or censor your opinions. The very fact that you post this question under an alias and not your real name makes the point that you value your online privacy.
In line with that, online privacy allows you to express yourself freely and access information without censorship or surveillance. Online privacy is a human right that we should respect and defend. It is essential for social justice and human dignity. Without online privacy, we cannot enjoy the benefits of the internet as a platform for open communication, education and sometimes innovation. We cannot participate freely in online communities, share our ideas, learn new things, or explore new possibilities. We cannot challenge the status quo, expose corruption, or demand accountability. Many might not be able to be themselves, without fear or shame.
In my opinion, we should use encryption tools, trustworthy VPNs, secure browsers, and other methods to safeguard our personal data from prying eyes. We should also support and listen to organizations that advocate for privacy rights and fight against online privacy violations.
It matters, because it is our right and - frankly - our responsibility.
Forgive the rant… this topic is important to me.
TL;DR Online privacy is important, because it protects our personal data and our human rights from misuse by third parties. It also enables us to express ourselves and access information freely on the internet.
Edit: added last sentence of second paragraph

Not sure. Sort by “All” and “New” and there’s a lot.
Not sure how this statement will age, but I feel Lemmy is here to stay. At least for now. Means it will likely grow over time.
A human will struggle with that.
Ah. You pray at the altar of Google with the mantra: “It only works in Chrome or Edge. Why not upgrade your browser?”
What could possibly go wrong with giving all the power to one browser engine? If only there was a precedent to learn from…
