Recently had someone arguing that GrapheneOS is Israeli intelligence gathering. They sounded like they were down some dark conspiracy rabbit hole and/or spent to much time chatting with an LLM as they genuinely had some psychosis red flags. 😬

How about when just ban fucking tracking and spying so we don’t have to deal with so many different privacy control implementations.

I’m having a pretty rough time at the moment, especially health wise. I want to keep family updated and actually just generally talk to them. They use FB Messenger and there’s no way I’m using that. So I put one message in the FB group chat asking them to contact me on Signal (it’s free, private, safe, yadayada) and that I’d set up the same group chat there so all they had to do was install and accept the invite.

Not a single family member did.

They are all average smart phone addicts users so the usual bajillion apps and one more isn’t going to make any difference to them. But they care so little for privacy and my well being they couldn’t be arsed even doing something as easy as installing Signal 😔

Starlink is space junk to start with.

That’ll never happen as long as politicians still get bribes lobby money and governments/law enforcement buy data to circumvent legal protections like warrants.

No. It was seized by the New Zealand government. Don’t think that NZ is some great democracy, our govt is turning into an authoritarian nightmare the same as everywhere else. Mega can’t be trusted anymore
