"I feel empty," said Lavender, looking mournful.

"Um... maybe you need food?" suggested Craig.

"No, food is for creatures; I'm a living space. I feel empty because my residents have been gone so long."

Just then glowing circles appeared on her exposed skin. Craig felt a breeze pick up as tiny glinting things appeared out of nowhere. Each one #targeted a different circle on Lavender's arms & face, landed, & was absorbed. Lavender sighed contentedly. "That's better."

Big thanks for the @eff for these recommendations to the #EU:

✅ Protect users’ rights to #secure, #encrypted, and #private communication

✅ Adopt a #privacy-first approach to fighting online harms like #targeted #ads

✅ User-centric approach to regulate big tech platforms (Digital Markets Act)

✅ Create conditions of fair digital markets that foster choice innovation and fundamental rights

We at Tuta couldn't agree more! 👏 👏 👏

I think there's a very fine line between #targeted violence and #stochastic terrorism. Both are horrible at a micro level, especially in their effects on victims and their kin directly.

But within a national perspective, is it not prudent to accept targeted violence as a mere cost of maintaining societal good? We routinely put up with stochastic violence. Why not have courage to face targeted violence? Then convict and punish perpetrators?
