Elon Musk Says U.S. Govt ‘Had Full Access’ To Private Twitter DMs. But no one knows what he means. Maybe he just doesn't understand that's how it works with a court order. Maybe he's just making stuff up in a classical way. And if the government should have full unfettered access, that raises even more questions. Anyway, we know this, direct messages on Twitter have never been private. And they never will be without end-to-end encryption (Forbes)

Discounts up to 99% on Alza? Scammers are luring with discounted electronics. They promise products sold by Alza.cz for a fraction of the original price, such as Samsung QLED 4K TV for less than two euros or Dyson vacuum cleaner for three euros. Whoever falls for this deserves no mercy. (Alza.cz)

Russian and chinsese propaganda are now welcome on Twitter and fully shown without restrictions. Musk: "All news is to some degree propaganda, let people decide for themselves." (NPR)

#TYDEN podcast (czech)

I couldn't find time to record a podcast during the week and when I did find time on Thursday before I left for meetings, something was blaring horribly in the microphone "in the background". What little time I had I searched for what it was. It wasn't the computer, it wasn't the microphone, there was no other way to set it up. In the end, it was an older Synology sitting on my desk, where microphone sits as well. NAS was vibrating gently, passing it to microphone. So accept my apologies, no podcast this week.
