Today: Being Bernd!

Today, I’m being Bernd, and I’m tel­ling you this in english, because I expect the ger­man folks to alre­ady „get it“.

Bernd is, at least a bit, the geman vari­ant of the „Guy Fawkes Anony­mous“. Actually, he’s a living mis­an­thro­pic tin loaf from child­rens TV, but he’s also a syn­onym for being anony­mous in the inter­net. If you go to Kraut­chan, the local fla­vour of 4chan, you’ll see lots of Bernds there.

So, today is Being Bernd Day, which means that we all should strive to be a tiny bit less forth­co­m­ing with our pri­vate data, a tiny bit more self-conscious about pri­vacy, and thus, of freedom.

Join us, be Bernd today too, and enjoy the irony of a privacy-advocating group joi­ning toge­ther on Face­book, of all pos­si­ble platforms…
