Template: Consensus Broken
This template is used in the GNU/consensus to describe software projects that do not match the criteria to thwart global surveillance. They present flaws, but they're not actively stalking their users.
Type | Template | Description |
---|---|---|
Compromised | Template:Consensus_Compromised | Electronic communication systems that spy on their users, or otherwise do not respect their freedom intentionally. |
Broken | Template:Consensus_Broken | Well-intended systems that can be useful but present flaws or limitations in their architecture or implementation. |
OK | Template:Consensus_OK | Systems conceived to preserve their users freedom and privacy, and will thwart global surveillance as well. |
Using Template:Consensus_Broken
Example with Email:
{{Consensus Broken |name=Email |type=Messaging |url=https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc822 |availability=Desktop, Mobile |description= Electronic mail (email) is one of the oldest Internet messaging technologies in use. It was not conceived to protect contents and metadata: [[GnuPG]] solves the content issue with encryption, and [[LEAP]] addresses the metadata part. Still, these solutions require symmetry of implementation (both sides need to implement the module.) |features=... |pros= * Mainstream recognition |cons= * Advanced usage can be difficult * No content protection by default (see [[GnuPG]]) * No metadata protection by default (see [[LEAP]]) }}
