A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

People underestimate the need for something like this. Society is only going to become more and more censored and monitored as technology evolves. It's not possible to escape that, so using communication where you are private is going to be extreamly important.

Also it needs to be able to resist being banned by governments.
