mullvad, for sure! they accept several payment types, even cash! no need to sign up w any identifiable information. they allow 5 devices for the monthly price. split tunnel, port fwd & ipv6 support, too.

This was definitely a big help for me: https://linuxjourney.com/

GINORMOUS

This is still a thing?

would

yes! I posted a similar question in a diff community and someone responded: " be the change you want to see". that’s pretty much all we can do! :)

Maybe fully reset/restore your phone first to wipe any malicious apps?

If anything, use a degoogled OS instead of android.

I’m convinced this community is just gathering data on people w the types of questions asked here 😂🤣😅

Like others have stated, using a container is probably the best way to help minimize footprint. Use fake info/data when possible, maybe?

Good luck 🍀

Meta & privacy are like oil & water. The only absolute here is that there is no privacy in meta products.

If someone is interested in privacy communities they’ll listen to all angles, even the absurd & absolutist, so that they can learn more about privacy, which is the whole point of joining the community. The attitude in your comment is actually the total turn off. Way to be open-minded & be willing to engage in constructive conversation.

Took years to get all the ppl I care about on signal & now the effort was definitely worth the reward.

Why don’t you feel comfortable on signal? Honestly it’s worked out for the best in my use case bc I have ppl that use android, iOS, windows, Linux & macOS, so it’s great to not have to deal with shit media quality or messages not going through bc of all the different operating systems. It’s E2EE so I’m not too worried about mass surveillance within my signal groups.

Also, iOS back door? I must have missed that. Haven’t seen any news about that.

“The data tells a tragic tale of self-loathing closet cases, Republicans who privately get off sexually to trans folks, while publicly trying to remove trans peoples’ rights and stoking hate against them.”

I wonder what it is that drives that hate. Religion? Values taught in home? Social pressures? All of the above? 🤔

Mullvad or Proton are legit choices 🥷

TLDR/

Kape Technologies is a major player in the online privacy world, one of the three giants that collectively control the market. It owns many of the world’s top VPNs, including ExpressVPN, CyberGhost, Private Internet Access, ZenMate, Intego Antivirus, and a host of tech websites that promote its products.

Oh dang! This is cool! I would love to get rid of a few streaming sticks I still use, sadly, and move over to something like this. I mainly use Plex so hopefully that would be an easy switch. Thanks for sharing!

hell yeah!
