Après la fin des débats sur la loi dite « Narcotrafic » à l'Assemblée nationale il y a plusieurs semaines, c'est désormais au tour du Conseil constitutionnel de se prononcer sur ce texte sécuritaire. Nous lui avons envoyé nos arguments pour le convaincre de censurer les nombreuses mesures de surveillance qu'il contient. Sa décision doit être rendue cette semaine.
Au milieu de l'hiver, la loi Narcotrafic est arrivée à toute vitesse et, avec elle, ont déferlé des propositions sécuritaires et de surveillance qui dépassaient largement la question du trafic de stupéfiants.
Extension des pouvoirs des services de renseignement, usage des « boites noires », nouveaux outils intrusifs pour la police, autorisation des drones en prison... Les mesures que nous estimons dangereuses et inconstitutionnelles sont nombreuses. Nous espérons que le Conseil constitutionnel aura un sursaut de vigilance pour le respect des libertés dans son analyse.
Mais nous restons pragmatiques et n'avons que des espoirs modérés dans la décision à venir. D'autant que la suite s'annonce d'ores et déjà difficile. Les ministres Darmanin et Retailleau ont annoncé leur volonté de revenir bientôt à la charge avec la reconnaissance faciale ou l'intrusion dans les messageries chiffrées. Pour nous aider dans ce combat comme ceux à venir, n'hésitez donc pas à faire un don ! laquadrature.net/donner/

A decade-old Remote Code Execution (RCE) flaw in Roundcube, the widely used open-source email client, has escalated into a global cybersecurity emergency. Designated CVE-2025-49113 with a near-maximum CVSS score of 9.
Telegram da a algunas personas una falsa sensación de privacidad que no está en absoluto justificada. Esto ocurre principalmente por su publicidad engañosa: Telegram afirma ser de código abierto y estar cifrado de extremo a extremo. Incluso si estas afirmaciones engañosas fueran del todo ciertas, la popular aplicación de mensajería tiene otros problemas graves que comprometen tu privacidad.
Sin cifrado, privativo, centralizado: una pesadilla para la privacidad
Solo el código del cliente de Telegram es libre, pero ese código es inútil sin los programas y la infraestructura de código cerrado delback end. Esos componentes centrales son controlados por una única empresa, que puede ser fácilmente obligada a cumplir con requerimientos de las autoridades. En agosto de 2024, el jefe de Telegram fue arrestado por las autoridades francesas, que exigían información sobre los usuarios de la aplicación. Cedió, mostrando al mundo que tus conversaciones privadas, número de teléfono, dirección IP, fotos y demás no están a salvo.
La financiación de Telegram depende de suscripciones de pago y anuncios. ¿Quién puede asegurarte que en el futuro no ampliarán sus fuentes de ingresos ofreciéndote anuncios basados en las cosas que envías y recibes o entrenando a una IA?
¿Qué impide que empleados de Telegram, jáqueres o espías gubernamentales lean tus mensajes? Nada. Los mensajes en Telegram no están cifrados por defecto, así que los usuarios están expuestos. Claro, podrían iniciar un «chat secreto», pero esa función no está disponible ni en la versión web ni en la de escritorio, y seguramente levantaría sospechas por salirte del rebaño (la privacidad opcional no es lo mejor).
Te vigilarán
Olvídate de ser anónimo en Telegram. Antes de siquiera poder empezar a chatear debes proporcionar un número de teléfono,que puede ser fácilmente vinculado a tu identidad real. Como solución, podrías utilizar un teléfono desechable y usar Telegram en el ordenador. ¿Pero y si quieres utilizarlo en un móvil? Tendrías que tener suficientes conocimientos tecnológicos para instalar un sistema operativo para móviles respetuoso con la privacidad y evitar ser rastreado por redes de telefonía móvil.
Una manera de proteger tu identidad es pagar por una verificación remota por SMS con Monero(SMSpool ofrece ese servicio) y utilizar Telegram en un sistema operativo libre. Si temes que Telegram pueda pedirte la verificación de nuevo y quieres seguir usando la misma cuenta, puedes comprar o alquilar por largo tiempo un número de móvil que no esté relacionado con tu identidad.
En resumen, usar Telegram con privacidad o anonimato es excesivamente complicado, por lo que no es un programa recomendable para esos fines. Si alguien te invita a a usar Telegram para hablar de temas delicados, evita entrar en la boca del lobo. Proponle hacerlo en persona o utilizar una alternativa libre, decentralizada y anónima (como SimpleX, Delta Chato Briar).

Snowden revelations take on added urgency 12 years later
Twelve years ago today, Edward Snowden — now a longtime Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) board member — blew the whistle to journalists on global mass surveillance programs, changing the way we think about the relationship between privacy and national security.
His revelations and the dialog they initiated are more relevant today than ever. We wrote about 12 of the reasons why. Read more here.
Texas might ban college kids from reporting news at night — or even talking
Texas lawmakers trying to muzzle campus protests have just passed one of the most ridiculous anti-speech laws in the country. If signed by Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Senate Bill 2972 would ban speech at night — from study groups to newspaper reporting — at public universities in the state.
We’re not exaggerating. In their zeal to stop college kids from protesting the Israel-Gaza war, lawmakers in the Lone Star State passed a prohibition on “engaging in expressive activities on campus between the hours of 10 p.m. and 8 a.m.” Expressive activity includes “any speech or expressive conduct” protected by the First Amendment or Texas Constitution — in other words, all speech and expressive conduct. Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) Senior Advisor Caitlin Vogus has more in the Houston Chronicle. Read the op-ed here.
Virginia gag policy is outrageously unconstitutional
An unconstitutional policy in Greene County, Virginia, prohibits government employees from talking to the media and requires them to label anything they share with the press as “opinion,” even if it’s verifiable fact.
Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) and the Society of Professional Journalists led a letter from a coalition of press freedom and transparency organizations urging Steve Catalano, chair of the Greene County board of supervisors, to rethink the unconstitutional and downright absurd policy.

Press freedom coalition warns of dangers of Dobbs leak investigation
The FBI’s investigation into the 2022 publication of the Dobbs draft decision could “instill a wide-reaching chilling effect on First Amendment-protected newsgathering.”
We joined Defending Rights & Dissent and other press freedom groups to warn that the FBI’s investigation into a draft Supreme Court opinion leak could instill a widespread chilling effect on newsgathering everywhere. Read more here.
Trump caught trashing US history to hide his secrets (MeidasTouch). FPF’s Daniel Ellsberg Chair on Government Secrecy, Lauren Harper, warns, “The Trump administration’s goal is to become the sole source of information — even if it’s false.”
Fountain Hills officials punished a paper for coverage they don’t like (Phoenix New Times). “It’s very much unconstitutional for the government to in any way punish the press over its editorial or content decisions,” we said after officials punished reporters they don’t like by removing a press desk.
PPI is heading again to the Internet Governance Forum (IGF), this time in Norway. The IGF is a UN event that brings together a large number of governments and non-profit organizations. PPI has attended the IGF for about 10 years now. As part of our effort to attend the event, we are conducting a fundraiser to collect up to 1500 euros to support our representatives. Donations can be made directly on our website or through the following crowdfunding campaign: fundrazr.com/b2Yiz8
PPI was accepted to organize a workshop entitled “Ethical Networking: Sustainability and Accountability” will be on June 23rd at 16:15 in Workshop Room 2, Hall C: intgovforum.org/en/content/igf…
We will also be presenting at a booth with the European Pirate Party.
We are attempting to fundraise some of the costs of our representatives who will be paying out of their own pocket to attend the event. Being in Norway this year, means that it will not be cheap. Any financial assistance would be greatly appreciated.
As a way to further motivate fundraising, we have also provided an incentive to include individual membership in PPI, which normally costs 10 euros, for those who provide at least a 15 euro donation.
The entire event is from June 23rd to 27th. Please review the IGF website as the date nears for information about participating online: intgovforum.org/en/content/igf…
At the moment PPI does not have any extra funding for this event. Every PPI representative is self-funded. By making a donation you will provide partial assistance for one of our representatives to attend.
We exposed as a lie the Trump administration’s basis for repealing restrictions on surveilling journalists to investigate leaks. The “fake news” that the administration claimed to be combating — reports that the intelligence community disputed its claim that the Venezuelan government directed the activities of the Tren de Aragua gang in the United States – was, in fact, 100 percent accurate.
But just in case that bombshell and the widespread news coverage that followed doesn’t shame the administration into changing course, Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) hosted a discussion about past efforts by the government to out reporters’ sources and what journalists should expect when federal prosecutors come after their newsgathering.
Our panelists would know better than most. Former New York Times reporter and Pulitzer Prize-winner James Risen fought a seven-year battle against attempts by both the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations to force him to testify and reveal his sources in a leak investigation. He detailed the Obama administration’s endless litigation against him, while at the same time it engaged in secret digital surveillance of his communications.
Ryan Lizza, the founder and editor of Telos.news and a former reporter at Politico, CNN, and The New Yorker, also joined to discuss his reporting on the Obama administration’s overreach in secretly spying on Fox News reporter James Rosen, as well as efforts by former U.S. representative and current Trump sycophant Devin Nunes to obtain Lizza’s communications from tech companies in separate litigation.
And Lauren Harper, Daniel Ellsberg chair on government secrecy at FPF, discussed the aforementioned revelations about the Trump administration’s false pretexts for cracking down on leaks, which she obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.
Risen started by laying out the stakes that emerged after 9/11. “Basically everything about the American conduct in the war on terror was classified,” he explained. “Everything that we now take for granted about our body of knowledge about how the United States conducts warfare in the 21st century came through leaks or unauthorized disclosures of one form or another.”
Lizza agreed, adding that critics of the Iraq War in the current administration would not have been able to mount their criticisms without leaks. Politicians, he explained, use leaked information to form the basis for their political platforms and then turn against leakers when they’re the ones in power.
Harper disputed the administration’s apparent belief that the solution to leaks is more secrecy, not less. “Upwards of 90% of information that is classified ought not to be. So I think in some ways, we can look at leaks as a response to a broken classification system,” she said.
Risen observed that the Obama administration finally backed down from forcing him to testify not due to the law but due to bad press. Lizza had similar impressions from his coverage of the Rosen case, explaining that his reporting “got the ear of some people in the Obama administration who did not like being accused of attacking the First Amendment and going after reporters.”
As Risen explained, when the government comes after journalists it’s often not about finding out who they’re talking to, it’s about “having a chilling effect on journalism in general and making sure everybody is afraid of the government.” Added Risen, “They’ll go after journalists not because they need them, but because they want to punish them and set an example.”
It remains to be seen whether the Trump administration will respond to public shaming like Obama did, but we won’t know unless we try. First, the press needs to avoid surveillance, by implementing digital security best practices when storing data and communicating electronically with sources, but also, as Risen said, going “off the grid” and communicating face-to-face whenever possible.
When that fails and the government comes after journalists’ sources anyway, it’s imperative that the press stand up for itself and its sources, by raising alarms about the risks to investigative reporting and press freedom when the government is able to snoop into reporters’ notebooks and emails. Caving to the pressure only encourages more retaliation.

@zer0unplanned wordpress is nice but it is very complex in an environment with many plugins and also the security of all these plugins has tired me a bit. I have been working for some time to find an alternative solution, even giving up a lot of graphics and aiming more for clean content in plain HTML, but that is equally productive in terms of work in creating content. I have tried many solutions, but they have not convinced me yet. I am evaluating Jakyll with git, but in terms of editor it is too unproductive. I am definitely tired of Wordpress

An unconstitutional policy in Greene County, Virginia, prohibits government employees from talking to the media and requires them to label anything they share with the press as “opinion” even if it’s verifiable fact.
Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) and the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) led a letter from a coalition of press freedom and transparency organizations urging Steve Catalano, chair of the Greene County board of supervisors, to rethink the policy. As the letter explains, similar policies have repeatedly been struck down as violating government employees’ constitutional right to speak about matters of public concern.
Seth Stern, FPF advocacy director, said: “A free press covering county government must be able to talk to experts with firsthand knowledge and get facts, not PR. Courts regularly reject policies requiring media inquiries to be routed to designated ‘public information officers.’ And courts would have rejected policies compelling people to label their speech as ‘opinion’ if anyone had tried implementing one before. Catalano doesn’t have a monopoly on facts. That requirement is not only unconstitutional but entirely absurd.”
Caroline Hendrie, executive director of SPJ, added: “Members of the public deserve timely and honest answers from their government, and journalists need access to public servants who know what they’re talking about. When agencies and officials impose unconstitutional gag rules, they disrupt the flow of information that people need to make decisions about their communities and their lives.”
Il sindaco di Sardara Giorgio Zucca ha pubblicato un’immagine di una "donna sospetta", ma stava solo cercando i suoi gattini
Una dottoressa della Asl cercava i propri gattini scomparsi ma il sindaco l'ha additata come una malintenzionata che girava per il paese per individuare abitazioni da “ripulire”
Il primo cittadino Giorgio Zucca ha pubblicato un’immagine sui social scatenando il caos. Nel “mirino” un medico dell’Asl che andava in cerca dei suoi animali domestici
diciamo la verità: cercare gattini è un'attività decisamente sospetta! Perché li cercava? Voleva forse postare le loro foto sul fessbuc per attirare dei like sfruttando la morbosità dei visitatori nei confronti dei gatti? O forse voleva trovarli per farne dei gatti terroristi per compiere attentati contro la potente lobby dei parrocchetti? Mai dire gatto, se non ce l'hai nel sacco!

Federal agencies are transforming into the speech police under President Donald Trump. So why are some Democrats supporting the Kids Online Safety Act, a recently reintroduced bill that would authorize the MAGA-controlled Federal Trade Commission to enforce censorship?
As Freedom of the Press Foundation (FPF) senior advocacy adviser Caitlin Vogus wrote for The Boston Globe, there’s never an excuse for supporting censorship bills, but especially when political loyalists are at the FTC sure to abuse any power they’re given to stifle news on disfavored topics.
Vogus wrote, “KOSA’s supporters argue that it’s about keeping children under 17 safe from the harms of social media. But at the heart of the bill is something everyone should oppose: empowering the government to decide what speech children should be forbidden from seeing online.”
Civil society organisations, including EDRi and EDRi members Open Rights Group and Privacy International, are urging the European Commission not to re-adopt the UK’s data adequacy decisions without meaningful reform. The UK’s rollback of protections under the guise of ‘simplification’ puts the level of protection required by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) case law at risk and exposes the Commission’s decisions to legal challenge.
