Folks, do you think if Threads/Meta/Mark Zuckerberg were really that bad, John Mastodon himself would partner with them? Do you think they’d even be allowed in the Social Web Foundation?

Pardon the cross post, but this is evergreen. Going through your partner’s phone, email, etc is abuse. I don’t care how you rationalize it, there’s is never any reason to do it. If you don’t trust your partner, end the relationship, but don’t become an abuser to satisfy your curiosity.

In 2025, we’re building a small #Maven-based tool to help #Java devs write more secure software. No big funding—just two folks in the trenches trying to get it right. Let’s talk if your company’s digging into SBOM or #OpenSource #security. We’re happy to share insights or lend a hand!
