Those of you who’ve recently joined, if you haven’t already, take a couple of minutes to set up your “wallet” on here. You have to provide your phone number, in return Minds issues you “tokens” for free based on your activity - liking, sharing, posting, referring new users etc. The tokens can then be used to boost posts, gifted to others as tips if you like their content, or - perhaps most astoundingly - exchanged for cryptocurrency. Essentially we get paid a small amount for being active on here, which is pretty awesome ✌🏼

This is a handy comparison of just what data you’re handing over - for free - when you use #Signal, #Telegram, #WhatsApp or #Facebook Messenger

WhatsApp is now taking out full-page ads in national newspapers (albeit in India) to ask people not to ditch its platform in favour of alternatives such as Signal and Telegram. They were fairly bullish last week that they had nothing to fear - this suggests otherwise. People appear to be waking up to just how much data they’re handing over, for free, to make money for corporate giants. Certainly not before time. https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/whatsapp-privacy-adverts-india-b1787443.html

Thanks to @willmccaffrey I've finished up with a few subscribers, so here's another recent piece of mine I hope you'll enjoy. It's on the replication crisis and other nonsense currently engulfing the universities.
