Why we need a #EU only #CPaaS solution: #CPaaS (Communications Platform as a Service) enables companies to integrate #voice, #SMS, or chat features via #REST #API directly into their software – without needing their own telephony infrastructure. When it comes to voice and messaging, however, highly #sensitive user #data is transmitted, such as phone numbers, call content, and communication metadata, making data protection a top priority.

Dear "@why2025camp",

before registereing to #why2025, I have a question that I need to be resolved.

I have heard from more #sensitive people about the #CCCcamp‍s, that even in the "#quiet" #sleeping areas noise from the #party was penetrating -- especially the #bass, which also cannot really be blocked by earplugs, making it not really possible for them to #sleep. Every #night. (Other not-so-sonsitive people did not really notice, but I am one of the sensitive people, too.)

Day 33 cont 🗳️🗣️

“The #truth is, in what became an impressive field of advocates, #Albo did more to secure my freedom than any other politician or public figure, even more than the late Pope, whose support was both moving and significant.
Against all expectations for an #Australian politician, once elected, he kept his word.

#Albanese lobbied former US president #JoeBiden at several meetings, pushing for Assange’s release.

Albo hasn’t just stood up to the #US to end the #PoliticalImprisonment of an #Australian – he’s also intervened for other Australians detained in difficult circumstances, including in #China. This government has proven itself unusually capable of rescuing #Australians caught up in #sensitive political situations.

Does this mean Albo will put Australian interests first and skillfully navigate tensions between the US, #EU, and China? I can’t say for sure. But I do know this: He can. Albo did right by me ... You don’t need to be a #bully to have a #backbone.”

« Staffers from Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency are building a master #database to speed-up #immigration enforcement and #deportations by combining #sensitive data from across the federal government. The goal is to create a massive repository of data pulled from various agencies, according to sources familiar with the project who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they aren’t authorized to talk about it. The administration has previously sought to centralize information from a number of agencies, including the IRS, the Social Security Administration and Health and Human Services. »

Day 23 🚫🙈🙉🙊

“Blocking the #GamblingAdReforms is the fourth known example of Albanese’s willingness to #overrule senior ministers such as #EnvironmentMinister Tanya Plibersek, #AttorneyGeneral Mark Dreyfus and assistant minister Andrew Leigh when they were tackling #controversial and #sensitive #policies.

The #PrimeMinister can always use the authority of his position to make the final call on all matters of policy. This masthead has already revealed that #Albanese has come over the top of Plibersek on #EnvironmentalProtection laws, Dreyfus on mandatory jail terms for hate crimes and antisemitism, and Leigh on sex and gender census questions.”

I’m going to be re-elected. 🙈🙉🙊

HuffPost - Sebastian Murdock · War Plans Leak Reveals The Shocking Incompetence Of The Trump AdministrationBy HuffPost - Sebastian Murdock

Some background about research behind high sensitivity as well as some good info for people who have this trait.

I relate:
"In brief, if you want to be sure you are dealing with a highly sensitive person, watch for signs of depth of processing. For example, their ideas are usually well thought-out. If they suggest where to go for a hike, they have probably considered the time of day, the aspect of shade and sun, the wind, and the distance from other hikers, among other pertinent details."

Good advice:
"A fourth need is to change one’s lifestyle. In particular, HSPs need to avoid reaching debilitating levels of overstimulation. They need to plan for adequate downtime. After a lifetime of trying to be like the majority, this can require some effort and even willpower to arrange work and family life so that it is how it should be for the individual HSP, while taking into consideration their responsibilities to others. Lifestyle changes pay off for the HSP and everyone around them, allowing them to make their trait a real asset."

Had this article shared with me today: fortune.com/2025/02/11/ai-impa

I went through an array of #emotions. At first, I found it #awkward and #discomforting. I made jokes:

Wait, you mean people aren't thinking #critically and growing #cognitively because the #digitalization of the world is doing it for them....and it's making them (gasps) #dumber!!?? #AI is making it worse?? Is this #Idiocracy? 👀 😞 Am I being #punked right now!? Where's Ashton and the cameras! 📹

Then, I had a deep #selfrealization:

Jokes aside - This is a #sensitive topic for me. I talk about it in my closest circle too often. Unfortunately, I have a front seat to the steep cognitive #decline of some close #friends and #family members for years now, and it makes me sad - not because of disease or "old age", simply because of too much screen time and no new cognitive #stimulation. I see too many people purposefully avoiding nearly anything #cerebral, if they even approach them at all. I have many days where I wish the #Internet didn't exist - for a multitude of reasons, but this is a big one. I'm not trying to be "old fashioned" or #sarcastic, I'm just #disappointed in how we #humanz have grown to depend on #technology as a #crutch, rather than using it as the #tool it was invented to be. As the article eludes to, these technologies are supposed to #complement human #evolution, not #supplement it.

Fortune · AI might already be warping our brains, leaving our judgment and critical thinking ‘atrophied and unprepared,’ warns new studyBy Chloe Berger

This article is about the benefits of dating a highly sensitive person, or HSP.

I think, though, that HSPs -- especially those who aren't aware of their high sensitivity or haven't fully embraced it -- should be given the message upfront: if someone can't appreciate that you're highly sensitive, that person is not for you.

If the other person tells you that you're too sensitive or emotional or becomes guarded because you can read them well, it's probably not a good match.
