I was able to get my family to move to signal but that was because they were already on WhatsApp.

This is a shitpost but some people are taking it a bit too seriously, a family group chat doesn’t have to risk profile to require a level of “OpSec” that would require everyone to be on e2ee messaging. Don’t isolate yourself from your family over MMS group chat messages, maybe just don’t share your IBS flare ups in it if you are that concerned.

Yes, you do. Because we live in an era where Uber driver or nurse pay is based on surveillance: the more desperate they are, the lower the payment offered for the trip or the shift. Because we're facing surveillance pricing also, where surveillance is going to compute how much you're ready or desperate to pay for something, regardless its cost, and that might be higher than your reighbour's result. Because we live in an era where abortion is banned in multiple places and who know what else will be later, after one of your relative will have told you what will become a confession?

So yes, you do give a damn, and no you don't talk over corporate surveillance networks as much as you can avoid them.
