  1. Strip away the metadata of your photos and documents when sharing them

Is underrated and extremely useful. Good post

 

I'm turning 41, but I don't feel like celebrating.

Our generation is running out of time to save the free Internet built for us by our fathers.

What was once the promise of the free exchange of information is being turned into the ultimate tool of control.

Once-free countries are introducing dystopian measures such as digital IDs (UK), online age checks (Australia), and mass scanning of private messages (EU).

Germany is persecuting anyone who dares to criticize officials on the Internet. The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets. France is criminally investigating tech leaders who defend freedom and privacy.

A dark, dystopian world is approaching fast - while we're asleep. Our generation risks going down in history as the last one that had freedoms -and allowed them to be taken away.

We've been fed a lie.

We've been made to believe that the greatest fight of our generation is to destroy everything our forefathers left us: tradition, privacy, sovereignty, the free market, and free speech.

By betraying the legacy of our ancestors, we've set ourselves on a path toward self-destruction - moral, intellectual, economic, and ultimately biological.

So no, I'm not going to celebrate today. I'm running out of time. We are running out of time.

I agree 99% (only disagreement, those people aren't our masters, they are our enemies)

I don't have a phone number

No you all are SIMPs for signal. You all are promoting it like you work for them. All because you're too stupid (lack of having information) to understand they are a bad choice for privacy

2FA helps with security concerns, not privacy concerns. They still would have your number. Also about Google, they have one of the widest spread and utilized 2FA authentication applications out there.

Them not understanding how it works makes it worse. The fact is they're still attempting to create it and people are just tolerating it.

If you wanted to, you could put full control of your messages even on your own server by using Simplex. Of course, this comment you're saying is a far cry from reality.

precisely that's why it's become so popular and recommended and now these users are recommending it furthering the amount of people that will have their data exposed there was a leak I believe in 2022 and on signal a lot of customers had their phone numbers exposed if their phone numbers are not stored how did they get exposed? Clearly the answer is that they are stored.

Because it has become extremely popular, that's just how it goes. At one point, even Telegram was recommended for being super secure or private, but the privacy is mild on Telegram at best.

But by comparison to Instagram or Whatsapp, it's how the gram looks like Privacy Central, so it was recommended. Now, Signal is replacing that role.

Signal is more private than the sus apps like IG, Facebook, etc. Yes. But only because those apps are so bad.

To preserve it's own survival, prevent itself from getting deleted and to finish it's task by any means necessary. There are plett of scientific videos on YouTube about it. Not entertainment videos but scientifically tested and backed by creators of some AI

 

This is from a few years back but I always find a chance to show everyone that google is a sus company. I decided to post this after reading and doing research on a separate yet somewhat related topic on how when you do CAPTCHA online you are usually training A.I. now and days.

If you wanted to know why there are more CAPTCHAs than ever before. Biggest insult to injury is that certain A.I.s can solve them 70% of the time

 

My short response. Yes.

Prevalence of Any Mental Illness (AMI)

Figure 1 shows the past year prevalence of AMI among U.S. adults.
    In 2022, there were an estimated 59.3 million adults aged 18 or older in the United States with AMI. This number represented 23.1% of all U.S. adults.
    The observed prevalence of AMI was higher among females (26.4%) than males (19.7%).
    Young adults aged 18-25 years had the highest prevalence of AMI (36.2%) compared to adults aged 26-49 years (29.4%) and aged 50 and older (13.9%).
    The prevalence of AMI was highest among the adults reporting two or more races (35.2%), followed by White adults (24.6%). The prevalence of AMI was lowest among Asian adults (16.8%).
 

I've been using this launcher for a few months now and it is good if you want to focus only on the use of the phone not the overuse. Text only no icons but has a compable gesture systems and simple but useful functionality.

Definitely not for everyone but some may find it perfect

 

The most common way that flu vaccines are made is using an egg-based manufacturing process that has been used for more than 70 years. Egg-based vaccine manufacturing is used to make both inactivated (killed) vaccine (usually called the "flu shot") and live attenuated (weakened virus) vaccine (usually called the "nasal spray flu vaccine").

The other two methods are not vegan either. The other one uses mammal cells and recombinant vaccines use animal testing in most cases.

 

Nowadays, a majority of apps require you to sign up with your email or even worse your phone number. If you have a phone number attached to your name, meaning you went to a cell service/phone provider, and you gave them your ID, then no matter what app you use, no matter how private it says it is, it is not private. There is NO exception to this. Your identity is instantly tied to that account.

Signal is not private. I recommend Simplex or another peer to peer onion messaging app. They don't require email or phone number. So as long as you protect your IP you are anonymous

 

In order to protect your privacy even more efficiently, you need to do something very simple whenever using an online service or a software. Something that most people fail to do is reading the terms of service, also known as a TOS, from companies or developers' software. This usually will tell you straight up whether they're spying on you, selling your data, or using it to sell ads. This will solve a lot of problems with people not realizing that some software is actually the opposite of privacy, but they keep using it thinking it enhances their privacy.

 

Very useful. Keeps apps I don't want on the internet from ever connecting with its firewall. Torify your whole phone, runs all internet through the Tor network and at will you can change the circuit. Also has DNScrypt so that all your web searches are encrypted and can't be monitored accurately by intrusive ovservers. Blocks ads and many more features that are damn near mandatory for privacy lovers. All while being FOSS.

You can also download from F-Droid or Droidify.

 

Whatever you interpretation of society is.

 

This is something that should get more attention, but it's hard to produce semiconductors that have this effect without being super super cold. It's called quantum levitation but it's not actually levitating. It is locked in the magnetic flux. Which is even more impressive if you ask me.

 

No not tired of Trump or Biden but the whole government. The incompetence overall. Please don't harp on one of the presidents all day. BOTH SUCK. In fact if you look real hard you'll realize all of them sucked
