### AI overview

An opinion essay argues that digital memories are vulnerable because online services, platforms, domains, and content systems can disappear or change ownership. It recommends owning domains and keeping multiple local copies rather than relying solely on cloud services.

### Source excerpt

The web is still the best hope we have for a durable, shared memory. But it requires us to be gardeners, not merely tenants. The post Memories Can't Wait--or, How I Learned to Keep Worrying About the Web appeared first on Jeffrey Zeldman Presents.

### AI overview

This article explains how Kubo v0.39's Provide Sweep becomes the default provider system for IPFS. By batching CIDs associated with the same DHT servers and systematically sweeping keyspace regions, it reports a 97% reduction in DHT lookups for a node providing 100,000 CIDs, alongside smart resume capabilities and memory optimizations.

### AI overview

The article considers whether phone apps and internet-connected devices could support automated COVID-19 contact tracing while preserving privacy. It discusses the limits of GPS, GNSS, Wi-Fi, and phone-location data for measuring close proximity, then reviews decentralized proposals such as DP-3T, CEN/TCN, and the Apple/Google protocol.

### Source excerpt

As many countries are now managing to drive down their COVID-19 epidemic, thoughts are turning to how to manage the outbreak beyond the "lockdown". The restrictions we live under now do appear to work, but for multiple reasons, they'll be hard to maintain. When the epidemic was small, it was possible to trace every new infection and isolate potential new cases. This did buy time, but for most countries, "the cat was out the bag already".
