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
Everyone should be more aware, custom ROMs, Linux, Foss applications, use Foss YouTube clients, privacy focused email account and tor browser, VPN if possible, torrent things you want to watch rather than Netflix, use cash not card and definitely do not add cards to your mobile devices. People need to stop using non-pirvacy respecting service as it negatively impacts everyone.
But I also understand that some will knowingly give information for "convenience". We all need to do our part in writing history. Vote with our attention, wallets .
Also in ops position, google, apple and all these products are gathering data for advertising, if your not seeing the adverts from your previous habits then that information is somewhat worthless so yes be privacy focused, using adblocker count towards you privacy. Good luck in your journey op
