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.

- 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
- Be nice :)

MODERATORS
The important stuff for privacy is his stance on “accidentally” injecting Brave crypto referral links into user sessions and defending it as a way to make money because he got Mozilla to use Google for cash. Eich will sell your data when he decides it’s the best way for Eich to make money. I got into a Twitter slap fight with him around then about the incongruity of his desire to track and sell users. He doesn’t care. Brave also has VC funding from non-privacy actors which means it’s only a matter of time before everything is monetized. Brave’s layoffs come as Brave is working on monetizing everything its free users do.
