Why is #Mozilla collecting our #search data?
source: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/products/firefox/firefox-search-update/
Sensitive topics, like searching for particular health care services, are categorized only under broad terms like health or society. Your search activities are handled with the same level of confidentiality as all other data regardless of any local laws surrounding certain health services.
Hello Mozilla, I use Firefox because my privacy is important to me. The best security is still achieved if you don't collect the data. That is why I will use a fork that does not collect search data. It would be nice if Mozilla took user privacy more seriously.

While UniSuper normally has duplication in place in two geographies, to ensure that if one service goes down or is lost then it can be easily restored, because the fundβs cloud subscription was deleted, it caused the deletion across both geographies.

How to Stop Any Smart TV From Spying on You:
"Smart TVs track your viewing habits using content recognition and voice capture for targeted advertising.
Disconnecting smart TVs from the internet can prevent data tracking, but limits functionality and will require you to use a streaming box for many tasks (which may also track you)"

What Happens When a #Romance #Writer Gets Locked Out of #Google Docs
In March, an aspiring author got a troubling message: All of her works in progress were no longer accessible. What happened next is every writerβs worst fear.
Google never specified which of her 222,000 words was inappropriate.
...
Generally speaking, files containing #violence, #abuse, child sexual abuse material, and gore violate the terms of service for Google Drive and its associated products, like Docs and Sheets.
Now many of you will be thinking, who is stupid enough to store everything in the Google #cloud? The problem is we know that, but many people out there don't. We urgently need to do more educational work and warn people about companies like Google and their practices. Tell all your friends and acquaintances and don't use the clouds of the big corporations.
