A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

MODERATORS
They pretty much just remove you from all those different people finder websites. Not the data brokers that Meta (etc) sell to/from.
It's still beneficial if you can afford it, but more likely to protect you from targeted scams or stalkers etc. than anything Big Tech.
This. You can remove yourself from those people finder websites if you're willing to take the time. I don't think paying monthly is worth it.
