  • For fairness, here is Tuta’s response to the allegations: https://tuta.com/blog/tutanota-not-a-honeypot

    There really is no way to verify that any email service isn’t a honeypot. Even if you open source your server code, that doesn’t mean it’s what’s actually running on the server. They could publish served code then be running totally different code on their servers with no way to tell.

    Tuta’s biggest weaknesses for me right now are the seeming lack of independent audits and the lack of interoperability for encryption. Proton is the biggest competitor and seems to have both. However, Proton has grown more in the way that a honeypot would, adding VPN, cloud storage, password manager, etc, so more data collection points. Tuta is still email, contacts, and calendar.













  • It’s working fine for me. I like the improved icons and slightly adjusted layout, and the auto-hide panel feature is great.

    Issues with my setup: window title applet isn’t yet updated to support KDE 6. I know there’s a version on the AUR that should work, but I’m waiting to see if it hits the Arch extras repo soon. My Papirus icons don’t seem to be applying, so all my folders are Green but Dolphin’s icon itself is blue. I also did get a weird temporary black box when moving a window out of the way from an auto hide panel, and the auto hide causes a stutter when it comes back into view.

  • Nope, because now you’ve started to provide more information than is necessary to identify yourself.

    My interpretations of the Florida law for your examples, but of course I’m not a lawyer, this isn’t legal advice, and my interpretation of the law is different than what I believe is ethical:

    I introduced myself as Mx Endocrinous,

    This is fine. You’re just giving students knowledge to identify yourself.

    wore nonbinary and trans and gay flag pins,

    I think this is probably on the borderline, but I don’t believe the law would allow this. You’re conveying information beyond what the students need to know to identify you.

    On the other hand, I think the law also prevents someone from wearing anti-trans and anti-gay flag pins (if those exist? I’m not up-to-date on hate symbols).

    had an it/its pronoun pin,

    Legal IMO. At it’s core, it’s just two English words on a pin which have meaning far outside the sphere of gender identity. If you’re using it to indicate how students should refer to you, it’s also legal IMO.

    and referred to myself as dronegender,

    Not legal IMO. It’s outside of the basic information necessary to have a conversation with or about you.

    I don’t personally this is a particularly good law, but I also don’t believe it is as restrictive as you’ve described it. And I’m not a lawyer. The law is written about “classroom instruction,” so as long as what you’re doing doesn’t constitute that, you’re fine. The difficulty, as you’ve pointed out, is defining what that means.
