Hi! I'm a latina, doing a MSCA-COFUND postdoc in Luxembourg. I research about #privacy, socio-technical requirements, #compliance, and #cybersec. Given that I also studied political science, I talk a lot about EU & Chilean #politics. I'm a #coffee lover & interact in #eng #sp #fr #introduction

The "theory" is "I've got big guns and the Supreme Court said I'm immune from any criminal prosecution, and Congress lets me get away with everything, so I'm gonna murder brown people with big explosions and tell the public I'm saving them from drugs."

Saved you a click.

Who today is influencing science a la Big Tobacco or Oil and Gas?
In our new preprint we show how tech companies like Meta are capturing research on their product, using mechanisms that subtly (or not so subtly) shape what science gets produced

The 18th-century shift from militaries raised privately by nobles to standing armies financed by taxes is one of the central moves in the creation of the modern state. Trump is dialing it back to feudalism. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/24/u...

Quiero ir a votar para las elecciones presidenciales, pero estoy viendo que cada viaje me tomara +5 horas y +200 euros ir a Paris.

Lo que no deja de ser que se pueda hacer ficcion con realidad historica/datos (como novelas historicas). Desde la guata me imagino que las diferencias son la narrativa, estilo y publico

Bueno terminamos hablando de eso, pero me imagino que en corto: escribir una historia con un arco narrativo enfocado en personajes y no datos (o no divulgar ciencia). Creo que mi conceptualizacion se queda cortisima pero para mi es claro la diferencia entre un no-ficcion y ficcion :)

I was like, "Look, I guess I'm an alright non-fiction writer, but fiction?" Common!'

His answer was, 'Still, you're a writer, regardless if fiction or non-fiction. And fiction isn't that far away.'

I have to admit, it lifted my spirits and made me happy today.

Today, I had a really encouraging conversation with a colleague from the literature dept. I told him that when I was a teen, I wanted to be a fiction writer, so academia felt like the closest I could get (although I would be a terrible fiction writer). He told me, "I mean, we are writers."

I will insist on my idea of mandating vaccines for US residents and citizens visiting other countries. Do they want to travel to a country that requires a measles vaccine? Then they need to get that vaccine.

Would be interested if people have more insight into how this came about. But maybe it's that Germany has real historical experience with State listening in on your private life and decided now was not the time to experiment with that.

Whatever the case, they voted no, which was great news.

But yeah, everyone was kinda resigned that we were going to lose this battle in the EU. Everyone just seemed like they were in agreement. It is always really hard to push against a movement that can frame itself as "protecting children"

But then a few weeks ago, Germany suddenly changed course

The reason why is simple: once you "backdoor" an end-to-end-encryption it really isn't encrypted at all anymore -- the end.

As fascism rises worldwide and states increasingly deploy digital surveillance measures, a "backdoor for CSAM" quickly becomes a "backdoor for state surveillance"

This is a perennial debate: child sexual abuse material (CSAM) is now mostly spread through encrypted networks where it escapes detection.

That's a huge problem, but its also a huge problem to backdoor an encrypted chat even if its "just" for CSAM

Want to call out a really huge (and surprising) win for E2EE.

So since 2022, there's been a bill in the EU that was looking like it was fait accompli to force companies to backdoor encrypted chats to scan for CSAM

It was really bad from a privacy perspective
