A grande richiesta ecco il podcast dell'intervento che abbiamo tenuto nel settembre 2021 come parte del percorso base dell'Hackmeeting 2021.
Il talk "Come navigare nel mare di cacca dei social network senza affogare" è parte del "Percorso Base" di Hackmeeting che ogni anno propone dei momenti dedicati all'afabetizzazione digitale: dall'installazione del proprio sistema operativo linux all'autodifesa.
Nel 2021 per la prima volta è stato inserito anche il talk dedicato alla sopravvivenza sui social network.
Potete ascoltare il talk qui:

Qui i link ad alcuni strumenti utili che vengono menzionati durante il talk:
-
F-Droid - https://f-droid.org/
F-Droid is an app repository that only provides Fully Open Source Software (FOSS) with no tracking or hidden costs. It offers to focus on privacy and security with safety precautions like avoiding leakage of browsing data, sending all data through HTTPS, Tor support, and converting supported languages in the metadata so as to not reveal your location.
Hence, F-Droid looks like a good bet when it comes to safety of your data. That being said, we cannot guarantee that F-Droid, or any other apps store, is 100% safe, or safer than the Play Store itself. F-Droid è un catalogo di applicazioni FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) per la piattaforma Android. -

That data is extracted and used to create Android events.
Features:
Does not use Facebook API
Supports "open-with" and "share-to"
Independent from Facebook regional sub-domain URLs

NewPipe: Frontend YT Leggero - Almost the entire world uses Youtube, and I am a huge fan too. There were many such apps developed, but nothing could match its prowess. NewPipe is an app that has emerged as a tremendous prospect. It is in every way similar to Youtube, and it consumes very little space. The app even allows you to watch Youtube videos. With Newpipe, you could download videos at minimal data consumption and also not worry about privacy being harmed as Newpipe does not require you to be connected on Google accounts.https://f-droid.org/it/packages/org.schabi.newpipe/
