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

MODERATORS
Ugh politics again. I hope the admins take this down very soon.
I have to admit - coming from a lemmy.ml user, this made me chuckle.
Still not possible to transfer your account to other instances. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985
Lemmy.ml is known for terrible moderation but I chose it just because I was new and it was official. Now I'd probably choose something else.
It’s more about it being a Marxist Leninist instance lol
Mister/miss, I'm not even sure if Marxism is even allowed here. I think it's more about "we ban everyone who disagrees with our American political views".
Just what????
Well that's what I noticed in my experience. You can't argue with experience yk?
Ok. Pretend it's true and I'll pretend to believe it
Maybe .ml has good moderation and you're just insufferable.
I read about their questionable behavior somewhere so you should be able to look it up and see it yourself.
I've heard equally unreliable narrators complain about consequences for their actions from a place of narcissism, yes.
I always see unhinged folk making bad faith arguments or outright shit talk shriek about being banned from ml instances for "disagreeing" then turn around and cheer when .world bans you for linking a source or something.
Hmm but narcissistic people usually don't regret their actions.
lol you're pretty dumb, huh?
I'm not sure, mister/miss.
They're known specifically for being pro-Russia, which is what made the comment amusing.
Then they have no benefit in keeping this post up and they definitely should take it down.
It's more about the fact that kagi pays yandex and yandex pays taxes to one of the craziest goverment in the world
Well Yandex isn't the best choice for anything obviously but (sorry for getting political again) imo US government is worse. And my comment wasn't about that even. The post doesn't have anything to do with privacy so it's offtopic and should be removed.
Thats the thing... Do we know what kagi is sharing woth yandex or do we just trust they dont too much behond the query?
The thing is we don't know, we can't know and the article just link to a youtube video that I can't understand shit.
They don't need to share things with Yandex, if they share anything valuable with any other major search engine is already fucking bad.
That's another story then. The current post is nothing but hate and politics. The title is clickbait and misleading. It should've been written completely differently.
EDIT: well there's no point in arguing with those who think they can blindly use any means possible to hurt Russia and anything related (or not) to it. It makes sense though still a bit stupid.
The headline is trash for sure but comment section correct so social media worked it out
