Banishing evil spirits into rivers was considered "best practice" at some point.

In German folklore, such spirits are usually called "Nix" (or "nixie" in English). Here are a bunch of tales I have translated about them:

Op maandag 6 oktober laten we opnieuw in heel Nederland luidkeels horen dat wij niet meewerken aan het kabinetsbeleid ten aanzien van Gaza, nu met nog meer mensen. Elke eerste maandag van de maand blijven we het werk neerleggen, tot er sancties tegen Israël volgen.
🔴 Draag rood, ook de rest van de dag, zodat je herkenbaar bent voor medestanders.
🔴 Leg kort voor 12 uur je werkzaamheden neer - of je nou werkt of niet, studeert, zzp-er bent of gepensioneerd. Doe dit samen met medestanders: collega’s, vrienden of buren.
🔴 Als om 12 uur het luchtalarm klinkt, loop je kantoor, je klas of je huis uit. Sla met pannen, potten of claxons groot alarm voor Gaza als de sirene stopt, en verleng zo het alarm minstens 5 minuten. Eventueel kan dit afgesloten worden met een minuut stilte.
🔴 Meld je locatie aan, dan zetten wij die op de kaart op onze website zodat anderen zich aan kunnen sluiten.
🔴 Maak beelden van jullie actie en deel ze op social media onder de hashtag hashtag#wijwerkenhiernietaanmee.
🔴 Kun je niet aan deze actie meedoen maar deel je onze boodschap? Plaats dan om 12 uur op social media de zandloper uit solidariteit met de Palestijnen in Gaza en op de Westelijke Jordaanoever. Ook dan met de hashtag: hashtag#wijwerkenhiernietaanmee.
Meer info hier.

On October 14, the EU will vote on the so-called Chat Control — a dystopian law which will require messaging apps to facilitate mass surveillance.
President of Signal Foundation Meredith Whittaker says, if the EU adopts the law, her organisation will pull their Signal app from the EU market.
I am both angered and worried by the prospects. Encrypted communication is absolutely crucial, when I speak to sources in countries where people are killed for talking.

Anlasslose Massenüberwachung: Messenger Signal wird Deutschland verlassen, wenn Chatkontrolle kommt
In den kommenden Tagen wird die Bundesregierung entscheiden, wie sie am 14. Oktober in der EU zur Chatkontrolle abstimmt. Eines ist klar: Kommt die Chatkontrolle, wird es keine verschlüsselte und sichere Kommunikation mehr geben.netzpolitik.org

The image is a dimly lit, mostly dark photograph with two figures visible. On the left is a person with a dark complexion, facing forward, and wearing dark clothing. To the right is another person, with a lighter complexion, wearing a red patterned shirt and dark pants. Above and between the two figures is a lit candle, which appears to be the primary source of light in the image. The candle flame is small and bright, casting a soft glow on the faces of the people below. The background is entirely black, obscuring any details of the surrounding environment.
