It’s because you’re still supporting them. That crap you see puts money in Zucker’s pocket. Delete your account and it will stop.

When authoritarian governments have complete power they don’t really checks and balances to the system, or juries. Take Putin - Navalny for example. You would know this if you aren’t a Holocaust denier.

As for the USA, let me put it this way: If Trump gets elected, with the tech tools the govt has, we will see, at the very best, another Hong Kong, with anyone that disfavors the Repubs disappearing, some permanently. At the worst, we will see another Nazi Germany. He himself proposed executing people.

If you practice privacy and can teach others, your skills will be valuable to the underground resistance.

I’ve started using Kagi search. $5/mo for a great search without selling my sh1t.

You can use App Manager (fdroid) toblock trackers. Pro:fine grain control… Con:TC has essential unblock.

I’m retired on fixed income, but if I use an app, I try to send the developer some money. I usually only send if they have a bitcoin route. (Which is why I stopped supporting Wikipedia)

Is that because Signal has trackers in it and F-Droid would remove them?

Why is it not actually in F-droid? They want me to install a private repo? Has it been audited or is this a shill?

I’m theoretically Mensa qualified but when I met some I turned away. My sense of what’s fun and creative did not align. At all.

Excellent question. For me, it has a lot to do with their sense of humor, general outlook, and their problem solving. ymmv

“good” book is highly subjective. It depends not only on your tastes but also on your general mood while reading it. Same for film and art. I saw the Mona Lisa in person and was completely unimpressed.

Ditto

Actually intelligent, reads books, sense of humor, actually listens.

Where’s your list of compromising, clean hand nations?

Not condoning, but no different from Russia, Syria, Turkey and probably 20 terrorist governments I can’t name in Africa. (Except the Brits apartheid in So. Africa.) It’s time for a universal revolution where locals take back their own land and get rid of all big governments eveywhere. Go back to a tribal system.

They don’t, but if they force me to unlock the phone, it won’t do them any good either. Doesn’t help if they point a gun at me at an Atm.

I honestly will not put ANY banking app on my phone. There is a risk of getting mugged or murdered for it. I keep a crypto wallet there with abut $50.

“People” really don’t give a shit about their privacy.

If I were younger I’d be looking at Mexico. Elevation and arable land can be found. Aboriginals would have survived if not for guns. And I think it will be a long time before the US ruins them like they do all over the world. I believe you can pretty much survive with 1acre per person in the commune. At least according to Fukuoka Masanobu.

I’m curious where.
