First thing to do for your online privacy is damage control - stop using technology that is spying on you and transfer to safe (!) open-source solutions.

I often feel that stoicism is attack by the government. Being stoic all the time will be harmfull for you. There is time to fight and there is time to take whatever life throws at you.
But not defending yourself against rising tyrany isn't stoicism. It's cowardice.
My account is not for crying about bad Big Tech. It's an exhortation to keep your online life for yourself and become fully sovereign.
This is must-read for everybody who has his dog name as a password for all acounts and says: "I won't remember many different passwords"

The next thread was almost from single flow.
AI texts are cool, but they won't be personal and uncensored.

Having gold bars but no cash $USD is delusional.
What Bitcoin and Privacy maximalist communities have in common is idea of "educating" the unenlightened.
Then they are sad that there is no mass adoption.
(Most) people don't want to be educated, they need simple solutions to their problems.
Absolutely true. Can't have mass adoption without privacy apps having same or better UX.
@ProtonPrivacy @Bitwarden @brave might be good examples, but Proton Drive could be better (ex. auto-sync). https://t.co/NHe48pZgOb

I'm not gonna write banger posts because it's weekend.
Go outside, touch some grass.
Privacy and Security must be simple.
Nobody with little tech knowledge will implement it if you send them website with 5+ options for one app.
Browser? Tech Savvy - Hardened Firefox/Non-Tech Savvy - Brave
Simple as that. No BS.

Funny how using even a meager amount of cash makes people think you are up to no good.
Even going as far as flagging you and asking questions.

Thread on Privacy dropping soon. Then right on practical things.
You probably need to do online audit. Delete those 1000+ unread email, uninstall apps you don't use, delete accounts you don't need. If you can, replace your Big Tech apps with FOSS solutions.
Privacy focused software won't be mass adopted unless it is more convenient than legacy Big Tech solutions.
Until then, only journalist, disidents and enemies of state etc will use it.
Chrome sucks. Period.
But if you are forced to use in work or school, at least look at this:

This is one of the problems Bitcoin faces.
"Muh send it onchain"
When you pay with Fiat, you don't know if the bank will SWIFT transfer, change their database or send the money to other bank.
You just pay and it happens.
