Oh yes, almost forgot... and we've never had a breach in the entire 7 years we've been running, not DESPITE being founded by a 'hacker' - but BECAUSE of it.

COSO holds nor asks for any personal information about you aside from an email address.
All at-rest data is held on encrypted volumes (AES-GCM or AES-Serpent). Our infrastructure provider does NOT have the keys.
All data-transit is encrypted (AES).
Deleted posts and/or accounts are instantly removed from prod servers & fall off our (encrypted) rolling backups within 48hrs.
We have a @WarrantCanary
All our servers/services run a 'dead mans switch' every day.

: Remember the mail-in ballots. Most weren't starting to be counted until after states' polls closed.
: I'm avoiding the internet for the most part tonight. I just wanted to check in and say hi to my #CoSoHomies.
: Best take I've seen all year is this one...
"If he wins, no other nation on Earth will trust the United States again for at least fifty years."

: This is me being all properly engrossed in Dewey-Decimating (😄) books. BNE. (Big Nerd Energy)
: It's really irksome and dumb that I live 1,190 miles from the person in the world I am the most comfortable around. (That's outside of my own family/kiddos, of course.) Alas, there's nothing I can do about because aside from geography, money is irksome and dumb.
: I am exhausted. Librarying is tiring and awesome.
: I've unboxed nearly 700 books over eight hours (total) since yesterday afternoon, and I've catalogued 399 of them as of 5 PM CST today.
I am a book #nerd.
