Look man everyone has to draw a line somewhere. Privacy is a spectrum and you can only hope to move closer to the complete privacy end. But I mean if you’ve ever used a credit card then you’re being tracked. Or really done most anything. If you’ve worked for the government you’ve been security cleared which means you’ve been essentially surveilled. I’m not saying I won’t eventually move to graphene/linux mobile and Linux on my laptop but ultimately existing in a society necessitates an amount of “tracking”. We’re both on social media right now leaving a trail of identifiable information by typing anything, etc etc

    Cope Harder, Mate. When people google my name they don't find shit, and I intend to keep it that way.

    You think my instance is selling my data to Google or Apple? You think yours is? None of my socials have any real information on them, any social media which requires identity verification is one that I instantly drop: most recently discord. I've been using the same email address for so long that I never even had to provide a phone number.

    More importantly a soulless corporation doesn't track me home, to where I work, to where I buy food. It doesn't catalogue my personal relationships, my habits, my interests.

    Any surveillance you're under is of your own choice, and it will come back to harm you some day.
