I guess put money you would have spent on streaming sites on hard drives and data horde before they stop you.
Support libre software and projects like Firefox and invidious
IPFS is an internet protocol that lets you the user help host things that you consume in a communal way, using some hard drive space you don't need right now, but I wouldn't recommend it yet because It has glaring problems. It's a better future vision for the internet but there are a lot of crypto bros involved trying to inject capitalism where IMO it isn't necessary.
You can't really get away from TPM computers for long I don't think.
In short; I don't even know
I data horde, and I don't pay for even one stream
I should donate to foss projects more but I am broke, alas.
IPFS sounds theoretically cool... As for TPM the newest PC in my house is a Zen Plus B450 machine that doesn't even meet the Windows 11 TPM requirments, and the last W11 install in my house is about to get swapped for a W10 LTCS install, for g*ming. When that dies I will just run Linux/W7 honestly.
