Both are non negotiable for me. I don't want my countries taxagwncy to steal my shit and throw me in prison for non compliance.
I also don't whatever surveillance company the same government is using tracking my movements and habits like I'm a terrorist for my anti fascist viewpoints among other things. So in that way, I also can't compromise on the only vpn service that's been proven by police involvement not to keep logs despite if the owner is an asshole or not.
I guess the mods can remove this comment too for whatever reason (ah, its an .ml) but I am still allowed to have an opinion. Fair on not having the high ground though I'm unwilling to compromise on my privacy even for the greater good of this situation so it seems.
Your original comment was likely deleted for being misinformation. Ultimately whether or not funding fascism is worth your protection from fascism is up to you.
