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 :)

Ah, you want to anonymise your traffic using a VPN?
You should be looking at Mullvad - they accept payments over Monero.
I'm just trying to keep the likes of Google, Microsoft and Facebook from knowing my real IP. If I had something that required absolute confidentiality, I'd be using TOR over bridges.
This is an excellent chain of posts from absolute gods in the digital privacy game: The paranoid schizophrenic's guide to opsec - an extremely entertaining read if you have the patience to follow their techniques.
Cheers
Nice. Thank you for the extra information.
