I LOVE C3.SNIST & SREE GLUG ❤️!!!!
I LOVE C3.snist (Cloud Community Club).
Tbh, I knew NOTHING. Today was my first day in the club, and I FELT SO GOOD 😭!! Unlike all the clubs, genuinely, clubs are usually a waste of time, but this one is crazyyy—not even for a second did I feel left out or dumb 🙏😭. People were very much into the work that was assigned, and everyone seemed genuinely interested in what they were doing. Also, I didn’t know I could actually do something productive without getting bored!!!!!!!!!
It’s basically all about DIGITAL FREEDOM.
Unknowingly, we often end up giving too much information to our mobile apps...so many permissions 🙏. We don’t realise how much access we give to random applications and how easily our data can be tracked, collected, or used by them.
And the craziest part is that most of the time, we don’t even question it. We just click “Allow” because we want to use the app 😭. Location, contacts, microphone, camera, storage...we literally give access to so many things without even thinking twice.
But as every problem has a solution, this too has a solution.
There are alternatives for almost every hyped/non-secure app. For example—SIGNAL instead of WHATSAPP. There are so many privacy-friendly alternatives out there, we just need to actually KNOW about them and make the switch.
Today I genuinely realised that digital freedom isn’t just some fancy tech term. It’s about actually knowing what we’re using, what we’re giving away, and having control over our own data.
And honestly, I’m SO glad I joined this club 😭🙏. I came in knowing absolutely nothing and left with so many things to think about. Looking forward to learning more and actually doing something useful with it!! 🫶🏻
