A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

MODERATORS
Things like PiHole, nextDNS and the desktop versions of adguard only block HTTP, FTP and POP and SMTP connections. It doesn't block connections to advertising companies through other protocols.
Correct, but what other protocols are they using? When was the last time you had an ad served via FTP?
good point. but there's still malware C&C servers that can only be blocked by blocking the IP range
