Personally I dont bother with private. I'd rather the access is available for everyone. Personally I think i2p is a much better focus for the community in the long term.

Not sure what works best in your case. I'm a Debian cat myself but I have been considering openbsd as a future option.

👏👏👏

Still on metal gear solid 5 the phantom pain. I'm taking my time. I've put about 60 hours into it so far and still have lots to do. Not bad value when I picked up ground zeros and TPP for like 7 shmeckles in a steam sale.

Dental plan

Of course it did 🙄.

This is the way. Fuck them.

Torrenting is one thing but I wouldn't be trusting a VPN to protect from anything to attract the heat of the law or government.

EA and Ubisoft.

Most clothing brands... I'm not paying a premium to be a walking advertisement and its all made in sweatshops anyway. I'd rather some non branded stuff so I'm contributing less to that whole system.

I dont care about all of the android watch or apple airtag stuff either. The new phone can do xyz.. Great still dont care as its a tracking piece of shit that will break in a few years.. I may as well keep my current piece of shit until the wheels fall off.

Subscription services. I used to use Netflix back in the day when you only needed one subscription and changing the DNS still worked.

I use free Spotify with brave adblocking and newpipe for music. I hear sailing is lovely this time of year.

TLDR: I avoid most corporations where I can , I think valve are the only one that I dont mind interacting with.

After steam sales and the deck I could never go back to a normal console
