Digital #Privacy at the U.S. #Border: Protecting the #Data On Your Devices

source: eff.org/wp/digital-privacy-us-…

Border agents may attempt to scrutinize the content stored or cached on your phones, laptops, and other portable electronic devices, including electronic communications, social media postings, and ecommerce activity. Moreover, agents may seek to examine your public social media postings by obtaining your social media identifiers or handles. As of this writing, the federal #government is considering requiring disclosure from certain foreign visitors of social media login credentials, allowing access to private postings and “friend” lists.

...described, would, strategically speaking, be an excellent solution for society to re-own its #DigitalMarketSquare, or as US film maker and storyteller #MatthewCooke, phrased it:

👉 "Should Society Own its Social Media"?

Thank you for the clarification. I did state (at least in the convo mentioned) that #XMPP is (but) a protocol.
The FOSS messenger(s) based on it, however, to my knowledge, are but niche apps for the technologically savvy.--No-one of my RL contacts has ever mentioned it (no a represantive sample, OFC.)

The fediverse promises social media without Big Tech – if it can avoid familiar pitfalls

The fediverse promises an egalitarian, noncommercial alternative to Big Tech for social media, but there’s a lot of work needed to make it work.
