I am quite conflicted. On the one hand this is extraordinarily bad for American democracy, but there is a feeling in me that said democracy farce at this point.
I also believe that this will justify further violence from the right towards lgbt/left/immigrants etc. But would that happen anyway?

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Why is it so hard to get friends to leave Discord, WhatsApp, Instagram, and others? Anyone else feel this?
4·3 months agoI think for my friends it’s just what we have been using for literally a decade since we were kids, combined with apathy towards privacy - although of my friends does use duckduckgo. I don’t judge them for that since I’ve been pretty bad with privacy. I do worry if we get into more activism that we will need to secure our privacy

2·3 months agoThat’s great to hear. In my experience every second paper I ran into needed a subscription, although I am guessing they weren’t federally funded research or from a country where that isn’t required by law

32·3 months agoWe really need to push for fully open access research. I believe the ACM has announced a transition to open access, so there is that. However I think there needs to be legislated open access. Specifically, any federally funded research (or research from publicly funded universities) that is to be published should be forced to be open access. In America I don’t think that’s going to happen for a while lmao, but hopefully other countries can do this.
