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
Tech literates people tend to be more aware, but people who don't even know what OS means/is...
I'm the only person in my family that has some IT knowledge and believe it or not, everyone in my family things that way... While swipping, scrolling, posting on GAFAMs and publicly exposing all their life ^^. In my friends circle it's the same... Those who don't know what an OS is respond the same way.
So it's mostly the lack of knowledge of what privacy is, in the digital world... Because in real life most people put curtains behind their windows, so people won't snoop on your hidden secrets.
