#Package-free #supermarkets keep open and allow you to shop #local, #organic and #climate-conscious. And with the need for some physical exercise you may even discover pleasant new #zero-waste shops by #bicycle as I did: https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-munich-zero-waste
During the #covid19 #pandemic convenience stores in #Bavaria have a special permission to open on Sundays. Here's my list of #organic #supermarkets in #Munich which will be open tomorrow: https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-munich-sunday-shopping#covid
Due to #COVID19Pandemic entire populations are being tracked and monitored. These measures could open the door for more #surveillance, strengthen authoritarians and endanger democracies. History teaches us that we must take this threat very seriously: https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/corona-surveillance-tracking-privacy-authoritarian/
We're sorry, Zoom is becoming a bit of a punching bag - but, like Facebook, they choose their own business practices and we all can disagree with those questionable choices. So do SpaceX and NASA... They have banned the use of Zoom.

It's impossible to keep up with all #corona induced changes affecting places mentioned in the #organictraveller's guide but I try my best in my vicinity and wherever I'll get first-hand information: https://www.organictraveller.de/covid
As many of us are spending more time at home and relying on digital communication, it is a good time to work on your security plan using our surveillance self-defense guide https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/your-security-plan
Airport expansion stopped due to the #CoronaCrisis: #Copenhagen #airport halts 500 million euro plan to expand its terminal area.

Unfortunately the bakery's #zerowaste campaign was stopped by #Corona induced hygienic measures: they will no longer fill neither your bag nor your coffee mug and ask you to pay by card.
In #Bayern wird nur alle 6 Jahre gewählt.

My favourite #organic #bakery cum #cafe takes part in the #verpackungsfasten campaign to avoid package waste and offers a discount to everyone who takes bread and cake away in their own bag or container. It's easy to always carry a cotton bag with you (can be washed with your towels).
I know it's not very likely that you're going to #travel2austria these days but for your next stay in #Salzburg / #Austria I updated my #restaurantrecommendations: a tiny #organic #coffee2go #cafe and an #Austrian #restaurant focussing on #local organic ingredients are the latest entries to https://www.organictraveller.de/organictraveller-salzburg-restaurants

Schools need to slam the brakes on surveillance and think about what kind of dystopia they’re creating for their students. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/02/schools-are-pushing-boundaries-surveillance-technologies
“Prodigal tech bro stories skip straight from the past, when they were part of something that—surprise!—turned out to be bad, to the present, where they are now a moral authority on how to do good, but without the transitional moments of revelation and remorse”
