W3C publishes Verifiable Credentials 2.0 as a #W3C Standard, making expression, exchange, and verification of digital credentials easier and more secure, thanks to @mallory , https://www.w3.org/press-releases/2025/verifiable-credentials-2-0/
You’re literally the standards body of surveillance capitalism. Shut the fuck up about privacy. The corporate members that fund your existence violate privacy as the core driver of their business models.
Fucking hypocrites doing fucking PR.

Das W3-Konsortium #W3C hat ein Richtlinienpapier zum Thema #Privatsphäre und #Datenschutz (#Privacy) veröffentlicht. Es beginnt gleich mit einer knackigen Liste an Richtlinien, die beim Entwerfen und Entwickeln von Apps, APIs, User Interfaces, Admin Interfaces, Plattformen usw. unabhängig von geltendem Recht immer beachtet werden sollten. Mit der Liste kann man auch gut bestehende Anwendungen prüfen - und dann gegebenenfalls nachbessern. Sicher auch eine empfehlenswerte Lektüre für das #BMDS.

Ermahgerd it gets worse. I got an email from their web support person who said that their site only works properly in… *drumroll*… Chrome and Edge.
No, your company's slightly cheaper rates for workers comp insurance is not enough to induce me to download spyware browsers from shitty companies I'm trying to disconnect from.
I'd imagine that #W3C or someone somewhere has promulgated some standard for web applications to be browser-agnostic, right? Can someone point me to that? I want to send it to this guy.
"We launched in Sep/2024 with a bold mission: to foster an #open, #decentralized, and #usercentric #socialweb. In just the few short months that remained in 2024, we made meaningful progress. Our participation at #W3C #TPAC and collaborations with major stakeholders like #Mastodon, #Ghost, and #Automattic have helped spark momentum for a healthier, more resilient online ecosystem.
Today we are proud to publish our 2024 #AnnualReport– the first of many."

On the #W3C #SocialCG a related issue. For a good bottom-up standardization process that guarantees an open and inclusive #ActivityPub related ecosystem, there should be good alignment with the #FEP Process.
Internet Standards Almanac: Who’s really shaping the internet? Our new tool helps answers three key questions:
- Who leads? Which actors dominate formal leadership positions, including chairing various working groups and committees.
- Who speaks? Which actors dominate discussions and mailing lists.
- Who publishes? Which actors author the largest number of technical standards.
