@iFixit Regarding how often/long people wear headphones and smart watches, would you consider testing for potentially hazardous materials in addition to repairability? While the “Stiftung Warentest” exists for a variety of products in Germany, a more tech-focused and international counterpart would be very interesting.

@bagder Can confirm, this is the standard way to install software now.

@gianmarcogg03 @element Cybersecurity involves much more than just secure communication, i.e. end-to-end encryption. If confidential data is leaked, then that would be a security breach. Security services generally try to compromise your device, either through backdoors or malware, and read the decrypted messages directly. However, social engineering is often easier, especially if organisations do not provide additional security measures and training. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_security

@danielittlewood@fosstodon.org How would you define it?
