whoa! thanks for sharing this!

i’d love to have a signal jammer

still getting used to the peertube space but it is so refreshing to see linux content from a woman of color, in another language!

great answer! would love to read that study, if you don’t mind sharing.

please let me know what other questions i shouldn’t ask the internet. i’m new to the internet so it would be great if someone can tell me what i should/shouldn’t do.

what is that? i’m new to earth so please help me understand.

keep fighting the good fight. it’s worth it.

i’ve had more friends ask me about lemmy and peertube bc of stuff i share, which is good because that means they’re noticing. no one in my friend group is “into privacy”, but sometimes i like to ask them questions like “what will it take for you to switch from (big tech service) to something else?” & let the discussion flow from there.

since they aren’t “into privacy”, they’re not aware of how their habits feed the big tech beast, which in turn feeds all these terrible agendas. an example is how they’re against the ICE raids and say things like ACAB, yet they use Ring cameras.

recently, i’ve had a few friends ask me for alternatives to (big tech service), and one of them even asking for help degoogling!

it definitely gets hard when you feel like your advocacy has fallen on deaf ears or whatever, but all we can do is lead by example. stay the course <3

i suffer.

what a great read!

this is one reason i am mulling over selling my vehicle. too many license plate readers in my area. my recent insurance company also wanted me to install a beacon in the vehicle and allow their app to always allow access to my location, in exchange for a discounted rate. GTFOH. it was quite pleasing to smash that beacon with a hammer though.

hahaha, hilarious comment :D

nah, not odd at all! it was one of the first things i noticed before i got down to the hardware specs, so it got my attention.
