What we’re about
Social, Security & Privacy Minded Friends in Gothenburg (SSPMFiGbg)
(This text will probably be updated a few times before it feels finished enough.)
You are also welcome to read my personal profile for a bit more background.
This group is just about exactly as any other group in here where people want to socialize and meet new people and make new friends, with the difference that we have at least some interest in security and privacy in the digital world of today, including respecting each others choice regarding this.
Different social as well as educational events for people who cares about security & privacy.

- Start using secure and unique passwords by using a password manager. That makes it so much easier and extremely much more secure! Bitwarden is probably your best choice.
- You don't have to be "perfect" since nobody is and 100% security doesn't exist. But at least, please take some small steps towards better security and privacy every now and then. It effects both yourself and your friends/contacts/our society. And it is of course also at least partly a matter of personal preferences, interest and your personal situation how much effort you want to put into it.

- Why You Should Stop Sharing Your Private Address Book Data to Social Apps. — When it's not necessary it might be best to not end up in people's address books at all actually: • SimpleX Chat — Add me if you like. Review, YouTube-video. It only takes a minute to get started. You only need to provide a display name. Same encryption algorithm as Signal Private Messenger, but without a phone number or any other personal information. Complete "stalking protection" for people you don't know as well as protection from the address book sharing problem mentioned above. Multiple profiles on the same phone if you like.
- Criminals map fraud victims online. Now the police want it to be more difficult to trace people online.
- Everyone has "something to hide" (SVT Play) — For your own and others' safety and privacy.
