Well, you could do WiFi calls and text with a VPN, use Signal, or Signal with a VPN?

Hello, your NSA overseer is Mr. X

It appears that you have committed 147 thought crimes this week....your accounts shall be ghosted for the time being.

I was looking for something that I'm confident doesn't spy at the hardware level.

I used Thinkpads as an example because after the early 2010 ones, they got those weird i7 (I believe) processors and we don't know much of what they do but some speculate they record keystrokes and phone data home.

What PC can you trust has good hardware in privacy? I don't want to buy a PC and run Linux, trying my best, and the thing spies at the hardware level.

I love how our tax dollars and inflated fed bucks go to this. We pay to get spied on. We've gone far beyond full circle.

I find that interesting, as there should be ways to only use email.

I'd say your IP or DNS is freaking them out. Sometimes when you have really good opsec on a browser, they can tell and will ask for weird shit like that.

I'd use a different browser, like maybe download Brave or Chromium or Librewolf (leave it out of the box) specifically for this stuff, assuming you use FireFox.

You can also download 3rd party clients for Facebook on Android, Insta is kinda a lost cause tho.

Edit: It's not on F-Droid, you gotta hop on Github, but there is a client for Discord known as Aliucord on Android.

Wait what, weren't the thinkpads supposed to go hand and hand with Linux, what do you mean?

I needed a job, alright. I usually shop at hannaford although it's expensive. I wanna farm someday.

2 GB data limit, need a different provider honestly...

Sorry for asking, but what even is the use of having a Wireless Access Point? If you have a router then you should be all set, no?

[-] trippingonthewire@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Yes it should although you may not get notifications of emails. I'd use ProtonMail or Tutanota instead anyway.

Like how you're using various federated socials. Whish there was one like YouTube.
