My dude, being “intentionally vague” is just admitting you’ve got nothing to offer. In fact, your “suggestion” is even less likely to have any effect than implementing the suggested tips from the OP.

Quit barking.

If you have better advice, feel free to share it, but “direct action” sounds Linda vague when you just throw it like you did.

I don’t see how these options & direct action ae exclusive?

We get it, billionaires bad, but it’s in the effing tweet “what they can do as individual”. All the options listed are solid.

Lui non, mais nous ça irait sûrement mieux.

Je veux pas insinuer que tu es naïf/naïve, mais c’est absolument certains oui.

Je te laisse par exemple (et au hasard) lire la fiche wiki de Yaël Braun Pivet (c’est juste la président de l’AN depuis 2022), notamment sa situation familiale. Ce n’est pas un cas isolé.

Franc tireur is an absolute piece of crap, but even a broken clock it right twice a day I guess.

Thank you for mentioning it, I’ve set up encryption end currently testing matrix with element as client, we’ll see how it works out

Yup, love SimpleX, but the web interface is really a key feature to get my contacts to migrate

Doesn’t it now require signing in with fb, google or some crap like that?

Interesting option, I’ll look into it!

Fair enough. I’m not in the US & I don’t know how things are going there, but here we also have the opportunity to use the same ID for different gvt services (or to use specific ID), but nothing is required for electronic payment (although the credit card is obviously linked to your identity), and overall I barely have to use my account on any of these services, unless I have a request which really occurs a couple times a year max.

And we can log on the website, no need to use any app, which work juste fine even with a VPN.

I mean it may be pretty well done and thus ‘safe’ (curious if said app is open source?), but it sounds like you, as an individual, are tracked for most of your activities. Is cash still a mainstream option for payment?

Also, it’s probably a costly stretch and really depends on your threat model, but could still have a phone with said app for any activity that requires it, and another one running GOS for a more private use.

Well sorry to hear that, it sounds like a special kind of hell.

WTF do you mean “gvt mandated apps” !?!

Didnkot expect that, thanks for the details.

Why not? You van set up a separate profile and install gplay services so pretty much anything would work under these conditions I assume

Thanks, I recently needed picocrypt and not being comfortable with the terminal, snap were a rather convenient way to get it installed, I’ll avoid them from now on.

Linux noob here, can someone ELI5 why snaps are bad? And how does .deb works?

My bad, I saw multiple app store listed, so I assumed you listed at least a couple options.

Imo tutanota ils still better than proton since they’ve never been compromises by sharing user data with the authorities.

As for Quillpad, I never tried Joplin but Quillpad is pretty awesome, deserves more recognition. Also it’s les than 5Mo whereas Joplin is nearly 100Mo and asking for permissions like geoloc. I get that it’s open source but this sub is about privacy, and Quillpad seems more adequate on that matter.
