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

Thanks for sharing the TOC! Great idea.
My pleasure, thanks for sharing all this important knowledge!
PS: I have few related things on https://fabien.benetou.fr/Cookbook/DigitalSelfSovereignty so I'd be curious to hear your opinion on it.
Wow, that's so thorough! It's great. I also tried your Beyond Monopoly videos but they are way too advanced for me! :)
Ah... thanks! Well let me ask then, if there was another "Beyond Monopoly" video that could be less "advanced" what would you like it to be about?
Hmm...I'd say solutions for people who are not as tech savvy, and how to implement them. Even things as simple as how to change your default browser and search engine, suggestions for different OS's and how to install them on any kind of computer, different options for Microsoft software, etc. For example, I'm on a Mac just because it's still good and I don't want to pay for a new one...I'd love either some simple ways to "harden" it and/or install Linux.
BUT...your audience is obviously more tech savvy and that's OK too! I think we need info for all levels.
Wonderful, I can do that! I indeed assume that people just don't "want" to install Linux because they think Windows, or other Microsoft products, is "good enough" for them but maybe they just don't know how or imagine they don't have the ability to do so. That's a great suggestion I'll try to address it soon, thanks!
Yes, I'm one of them, haha! It would be great to have Linux or a privacy OS...though I haven't found a privacy OS I think will be any good.
