A #Linux-distro-a-day keeps the problems away and you don’t have to pay.

FreedomBox

FreedomBox is a #private-server for #non-experts: it lets you install and configure server applications with only a few clicks. It runs on cheap hardware of your choice, uses your internet connection and power, and is under your control.

Plain and clear.
You may use it to install your own instance of mastodon*, for example.

Try this at home. :) ;)
Also Diasp, I suppose. The gurus here confirm this?

FreedomBox is a private server for non-experts: it lets you install and configure server applications at home with only a few clicks

Launched in 2010 by Prof. Eben Moglen, FreedomBox is a global project to empower regular people to reassert control over the infrastructure of the internet. FreedomBox empowers its users to avoid the data mining, censorship and surveillance by centralized silos that characterize the web of today. It makes web servers personal, affordable and manageable, so that a user can host necessary web services at home on a device they own, powered by free software they can trust.

FreedomBox provides file sharing like Dropbox. Your data stays with you. Your family and friends also benefit. FreedomBox provides a VPN server. Connect securely to your devices at home from outside. Protect your browsing session when on untrusted networks. FreedomBox provides a secure, decentralized replacement for WhatsApp. Do group chats and audio/video calls from any device.

FreedomBox can host a blog or a wiki. Host your personal website right from your home. Synchronize your calendar and contacts to FreedomBox. Share media and take backups from all devices on your home network. FreedomBox can be your Network Attached Storage (NAS).

You have options to buy it as a cloud hosted service, or you can buy a hardware device and run it at home, or you can 'build' your own on a Raspberry Pi or better computer at home.

Dem ist kaum etwas hinzuzufügen außer:
* Whatsapp weißt selbst darauf hin, dass die Benutzerdaten auf amerikanischen Servern gespeichert werden. Damit dürfte der europäische Datenschutz de facto ausgehebelt werden.
* Eine weitere Alternative ist Matrix. Mithilfe der #FreedomBox kann man sogar seinen eigenen Server betreiben und ist damit vollständig Herr/Frau der eigenen Daten.

Freedombox 20.14

The current version of #FreedomBox (20.14) has added the App #BePasty, a very simple tool for having ones own cloud.
Usage is a bit odd for people being used to self-explaning user interfaces, but it includes all the features one needs:
1. Password protection
1. Permission rights definition
1. Uploading and view of
1. simple text
1. PDF
1. Videos
1. Audio
1. Images
1. Also collections of documents can be generated.

Reading through the documentation helps getting used to it.
Unfortunately, the user interface is only available in English.

Anyway, I am happy to have a tool at hand to share biger files with friends without having to resort to data miners.

Freedombox , Freedombone and The Age of Surveillance Capitalism

I look at the #Freedombox and #Freedombone projects with interest as I think these will be what the future #Internet will be built on, if we want to move away from #SurveillanceCapitalism. The book written by #ShoshanaZuboff , The Age of Surveillance Capitalism , is a brilliant snapshot of how bad things have got with today's Internet. We need to rebuild a decentralised web if we are to take back control of what was built for the people and not against the people.

Projects like Freedombox and Freedombone have noble intents but how widely are they deployed and at what point will mass deployment on these systems really start making a difference? Until things like #Federverse and #decentralisation hit the mainstream news, are we really going to see a massive shift in behaviors? Are we going to see a change in the way people use the Internet? What we really need is a #MeToo movement that opens people's eyes against the abuses of the big five: #Google , #Facebook , #Amazon , #Apple and #Microsoft. #MeToo was born within #Hollywood, no wonder it got traction ... The new Internet will need its own Hollywood, won't it ...?
