no, I just think the misconception that Switzerland is some kind of privacy paradise is very common and any possible malicious entity, from corporations to governments, can too easily take advantage of this.

if the political orientation of the cofounder is important (and I personally believe that it can be) than equally, if not more, important is the jurisdiction of the services. I’d avoid both UK and Switzerland for a VPN.

Europe@feddit.org•Ungheresi del Zakarpattia e il prezzo dell'integrazione europeaEnglish
2·5 months agoquick automatic translation:
The rights of the Hungarian minority of Zakarpattia for years remain one of the thorniest and most undervalued issues in Eastern Europe. For Kiev, this is a linguistic policy, for Budapest the protection of countrymen and for Europe a test on the ability of the Ukrainian state to reconcile security, reforms and respect for the rights of minorities. After 2014 Ukraine embarked on a turning point towards strengthening the Ukrainian language as the foundation of civil and political identity. This path received a further boost after 2022, when the war with Russia made national cohesion issues even more sensitive. However, for the Hungarian community of Zakarpattia these reforms have often meant not a strengthening of civil equality, but a reduction in space for education and public use of the mother tongue. The Hungarian minority of Zakarpattia is one of the historical communities of Ukraine. The right to language, culture must be considered not as a threat to the state, but as an indicator of how much the country is willing to respect the rights of its citizens. If the protection of minorities is interpreted as secessionism, this inevitably undermines trust in Ukrainian institutions both in the country itself and abroad. In the spring of 2026, the dialogue between Kiev and Budapest was announced: the two sides launched expert online consultations to rebuild bilateral relations and protect the rights of the Hungarian minority in Zakarpattia. This dispute has long blocked Ukraine’s accession process to the EU and has now become the subject of negotiation in the context of the change of the political establishment in Hungary. At the same time, in Ukraine, there is discussion of tightening control over compliance with linguistic legislation, which according to numerous newspapers could complicate the situation of Hungarian communities in the region. Péter Magyar, prime minister of Hungary, raises an uncomfortable question: Europe has been helping Ukraine with money, arms and political support for years but Ukraine, according to him, does not respect the basic rules, does not reform in the field of minority rights. So why is he asking to continue to help a country that is not ready to meet European standards? This argument is echoed among Hungarians: about 95% of Hungarian citizens have spoken out against Ukraine’s accession to the EU. It is not just about Hungary, but also about other EU countries that actively support Ukraine. Europe says clearly: we are with you, but only if you respect our values. If Ukraine wants to be part of Europe, it must live by European rules, not just ask for help.

Scienza e tecnologia@feddit.it•Al Cern il confronto tra materia e antimateria si fa sempre più precisoItaliano
1·5 months agoAl Cern di Ginevra il confronto tra materia e antimateria si fa sempre più serrato: la collaborazione dell’esperimento Alpha, a cui partecipa anche l’Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (Infn), ha infatti realizzato la misura più precisa mai ottenuta di una proprietà fondamentale dell’antidrogeno, la cosiddetta struttura iperfine, migliorandone l’accuratezza di circa cento volte.
Il risultato, che segna un nuovo importante passo verso la comprensione dell’antimateria, è pubblicato sulla rivista Nature.
Secondo le più accreditate teorie cosmologiche, materia e antimateria sono state prodotte in quantità uguali subito dopo il Big Bang. Tuttavia, l’universo che conosciamo oggi è costituito quasi esclusivamente di materia: una delle grandi questioni aperte della fisica fondamentale è quindi comprendere che cosa abbia portato a un simile squilibrio. In questo contesto, la misura dei livelli energetici dell’antidrogeno, e il loro confronto con quelli dell’idrogeno, è di importanza fondamentale. Consente infatti di verificare la validità di queste simmetrie tra materia e antimateria e di esplorare eventuali deviazioni che potrebbero aprire la strada a una nuova fisica. E uno degli osservabili più sensibili è, appunto, la struttura iperfine dello stato fondamentale, legata all’interazione tra gli spin delle particelle che compongono l’atomo.
Nel corso dell’esperimento sono stati analizzati circa 24.000 antiatomi, prodotti combinando antiprotoni e positroni e mantenuti in una trappola magnetica a temperature estremamente basse. La tecnica impiegata, basata su spettroscopia a microonde, ha consentito di determinare con precisione le transizioni tra i livelli energetici dell’antidrogeno, da cui si ricava direttamente l’intervallo iperfine.
“Questo risultato rappresenta un passo fondamentale nello studio dell’antimateria”, osserva Germano Bonomi, ricercatore della sezione Infn di Pavia e professore all’Università di Brescia. “Grazie al significativo miglioramento nella precisione della misura, possiamo confrontare con sempre maggiore sensibilità le proprietà di materia e antimateria, mettendo alla prova i principi più profondi della fisica”.
