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.

- 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 :)

So the choice is either accept spyware or become a digital hermit with no phone?
no, the choice is either learn the ways you can avoid and work against spyware like buying hardware that can be bootloader unlocked from now on, or submit yourself to a fate of just accepting whatever corporate america wants to do to you i guess
GrapheneOS is probably the best choice if you care about privacy nowadays. The only con is it only supports Pixel and future Motorola phones.
If your phone supports something like LineageOS, that'd also be a step up from stock Android or big-tech distributions, although it's not as good as GrapheneOS.
