So I followed a couple privacy guides recently. The main ones were a post I made asking the community for guidance about privacy and that quick privacy guide from redsails. They were helpful but honestly left me kinda unsatisfied
They just felt like quick start checklists, not really an education. I’m looking for something more thorough and most importantly a way to keep learning long term instead of just a one time setup
Where can I find stuff that goes deeper? Like actual resources and knowledge, not just steps to follow
Also what about the privacy paradox? The more you hide the more you stand out
Well the long-term solution is to control your infrastructure completely. Digital sovereignty.
And to use technology in a way that meets your expectations, that means putting trust into other people.
The long-term solution is to have a community to develop and maintain tooling that meets your needs. If you are dependent on untrusted infrastructure, it's just going to be one battle after another, as your adversary just keeps trying to fuck you.
The actual privacy and security education is very mathematical or technical on hardware or software principles. It is the responsibility of engineers to make those considerations.
In your case most technical engineers are adversarial. This is why you have to even consider this problem.
