This includes the instance rules of dbzer0, which can be tl;dr'd to: this is a libertarian socialist space, no right wing nutjobs or tankies are allowed. As for the community rules:

  1. Be nice
  2. No bigotry/prejudice
  3. No tankies/right wingers
  4. Don't promote proprietary software

Even without dictatorship, it's really comforting to have a Tails USB stick with encrypted volume set up. Feels like a little home on the go in my pocket.

Besides that yeah (it's especially useful in dictatorships though) It's very comforting to have an extra line of security/privacy JIC you ever need it. Personally besides political dissent i think it's a little overkill but nice to have at all times eitherway :)
