You could create an Odysee channel perhaps, and try to migrate there. Then you’re supporting competition.

Session, but if you’re really paranoid ofc.

I just deleted my google account. Bye YouTube comments.

Honestly I’m just quitting social media. It got to a point where I just go on to learn about things, not to laugh at something stupid or post about how I’m feeling. You don’t need 4+ social media accounts at that point.

I was looking for something that I’m confident doesn’t spy at the hardware level.

I used Thinkpads as an example because after the early 2010 ones, they got those weird i7 (I believe) processors and we don’t know much of what they do but some speculate they record keystrokes and phone data home.

What PC can you trust has good hardware in privacy? I don’t want to buy a PC and run Linux, trying my best, and the thing spies at the hardware level.

On Android, Squaker still currently works after the latest update. You can view tweets and profiles but not replies. The guy running it is really working overtime for us.

Yk, I’ll play devils advocate and say that I see the good in this. People with disabilities will finally be able to do things.

But, governments will definitely love this. And the proprietary technology would definitely be spying on people, no surprise there.

I’m really afraid it could become a mandate to get in the future (gotta learn how to survive in the woods.)

So overall, it has good potential but would definitely be used for harm. I think it’s a net negative.

Couldn’t you ask the guys at the dealership to remove the router and such from the car? Say you don’t want internet. If so, I’d say that’s the best you’d get in terms of new cars.

I love how our tax dollars and inflated fed bucks go to this. We pay to get spied on. We’ve gone far beyond full circle.

You could try to jailbreak but honestly you’re better off not having an iPhone

I have to buy older cars. I wish there was a car company making new cars that were older fashioned. Or I wish cars were simplistic enough to DIY.

Well, if you didn’t take all the precautions you took, over a 1000 data brokers could’ve had access to your address, and so much more about you.

And while I most certainly don’t like it, I know that I’m still stopping them from learning even more about me, and my search results are still secure.

Everyone I get to talk to me on Signal is having a secure conversation with me.

Everything to an extent is a win, so don’t give up king.

What communities are there on Revolt? Anything big? Like GrapheneOS, Linux Mint, Signal, Monero?

I know that Matrix has their communities.

I’m interested in the day it hits the Linux Desktop, but being even on iOS is crazy imo.

It’s decentralized, which therefore makes it harder than even Session.

I find that interesting, as there should be ways to only use email.

I’d say your IP or DNS is freaking them out. Sometimes when you have really good opsec on a browser, they can tell and will ask for weird shit like that.

I’d use a different browser, like maybe download Brave or Chromium or Librewolf (leave it out of the box) specifically for this stuff, assuming you use FireFox.

You can also download 3rd party clients for Facebook on Android, Insta is kinda a lost cause tho.

Edit: It’s not on F-Droid, you gotta hop on Github, but there is a client for Discord known as Aliucord on Android.

Wanna go crazy? Use SimpleXchat

Outlaw and hated one, sometimes rossman.

I like Luke, but watched for his opinions in things honestly.

It’s a good thing I don’t have any socials for them to trace me back to. And since I work there, I’m always looking at shit that will prolly throw them off.
