  • I was once called a "right winger" and a "trump supporter" over on reddit because I talked about how awesome self-governing local communities would be.

    Who better to decide what happens in a town than the people who actually live there?

    There's paid trolls and bots that muddy the waters about everything.

  • Anyone who still thinks that is either new to Linux or profoundly naive.

    People still shit downvotes on me whenever I talk about how linux isn't perfect.

    Microsoft, for all its faults is at least honest enough to admit outright that their software needs protection. They're still not honest about what kind of protection it needs. But at least they're not going to yoink anything off your system they don't want you to use like Apple does

  • It’s so blatantly unconstitutional,

    Careful, someone called me a fascist for saying that about this issue.

  • they don't even need to put shit directly on our devices to get what they want really, they have a wiretap into all the advertising companies and all the internet providers and all the cellphone and land line providers. They have a wiretap into every remotely accessible camera system. They don't need to come up with more invasive ways to get into all our shit but they keep doing it.

  • oh but guys! Linux is so much more secure than windows!

    Linux can't get hacked or get malware! That's absurd!

    That was all sarcasm

  • well clearly there must be someone at that evil organization with a soul then

  • but digital ID is going to make everything so secure!

    That was sarcasm

  • Who goes out of their way to buy shitty apple products? There's your answer

  • Good, now fine them for throttling people and selling all our other data without our consent

  • if they're based in a UK territory it's only a matter of time before their censorship and surveillance laws either take them down or turn it into spyware.

  • IVPN - Nearly same as Mullvad.

    do they use quantum secure encryption?

    If not, that's like comparing a horse-drawn carriage to a space shuttle.

  • Yes, but telling you how I do it would be bad opsec.

  • use an adblocking DNS like Adguard and use a good VPN that won't snitch.

    Proton or Mullvad, whatever works better for you, they're both good.

  • I don't know why you got downvoted, this is important to know that it's not a good alternative to google maps.
