Proton uses Cloudflare The VPN traffic, which sees your real home IP (and packet size and timing), flows through Cloudflare to Proton. This is an undeniable conflict of interest, because the websites you're hiding from are also on Cloudflare. In this epic meme slide show "article" with humor, we quickly present the critical facts you need to know,

Privacy Hell: Proton Uses Cloudflare | Simplified Privacy

If you care about freedom tech, please share my words. Because "giving a shit" is the only way things will ever change.

Messaging is broken. Signal is centralized. SimpleX doesn't do groups well. Session doesn't auto-rotate keys. XMPP lacks multi-device support. And Matrix leaks metadata & is slow. Nostr DMs are currently horrible. But White Noise looks like a promising potential upcoming solution to all of these problems. It uses MLS for the actual encryption with Nostr keys just for identity. MLS is able to offer easy scaling for groups, that isn't bogged down by being a bunch of one-on-ones in disguise as a group UI, the way signal, session, and simplex are. Check out,

People often mix up using Linux as a home residential computer, with doing command line cloud services. Yes, learning the terminal and running services requires knowledge. But just using the graphical environment like a regular home PC with something like Mint, is barely different than Windows. You DON'T need to know the terminal to use Linux for a home PC.

HydraVeil 1.1.0 Release! Upgrade Now | Simplified Privacy

Trump says China is evil Yet he's having this Palantir database store everything similar to China's social credit score: -Tax filings -Student debt -Social Security -Bank accounts -Medical claims -Immigration status Former Republican Representative Justin Amash: "The surveillance state...the police state...the deep state......are alive & well under Trump. He signed bills to extend & expand mass surveillance. Now he's building profiles' on millions of law-abiding Americans. It's an extraordinary threat to liberty." [1] The real move is not to debate this stuff, but to prevent it from being in the database to begin with. It's hard to opt out of everything, but a good start is Linux, Degoogled phone, cryptocurrency, and encrypted messengers. Then self-host email and use VoIP (when a regular number is required). Finally consider buying things from parallel legal systems and economies. Slowly the resistance grows, through improving people's lives, and not violence on the street. Ironically, the more you resist, the less dirt they have on you. And the better your "social credit score". [1]

"Trump flipped on us": MAGA reacts to potential national citizen database

"Seriously, if Palantir isn't the deep state, then what is?" wrote Trump supporter Nick Fuentes.

Anyone can shitpost once under a random public key. But the more you can achieve as a (pseudo)-anonymous entity, the more impressive it is. And in fact, by achieving things without bank accounts or traditional legal systems, it degrades government power. Since people ask "Wow, they achieved all that, and improved people's lives without the government, maybe we don't need the government at all?"

Ironically Democrats protesting Donald Trump, creates the conditions where he has to use authoritarian force to crush (sometimes) violent protests. In other words, "no kings" will create a king.

When I was younger, I learned the government was corrupt. But I thought it could be changed by education. Now I am older and wiser, and I see that the government will never change, but we can create a parallel society among those who are aware. All of these are public/private keys with repetition, that transcend physical locations (and therefore, create their own law). Nostr: No blockchain, you pull it from the relays the poster put it on. Session: Blockchain pays the nodes, but no data or metadata stored on there. It strictly incentives the nodes to route and store it. Bastyon: Blockchain stores the metadata. But the actual posts are off-chain. Arweave: Blockchain literally stores the data up to a certain size, then the rest is off-chain to have infinite scale. Some will debate over which is better for what. But this misses the point. Fighting among ourselves over different tools, only divides the little community we have. I say, make em all connect.

Blockstream and Adam Back barely even use Nostr. His last post was a year ago. Then he went another full year before that one. Yet he does podcasts on Nostr being the future. I guess Adam isn't concerned with censorship, since Federal Reserve goons funded Blockstream. Now given that he doesn't use Nostr, I'd be willing to bet he doesn't use Bitcoin Lightning in real life, as cash. Which is the goal of Blockstream, to kill it’s organic use for the government, and sell their centralized liquid solution. View quoted note →

No matter what I'm gonna criticize Trump If he goes to war with Iran, then he's the new Bush/Iraq If this situation calms down for peace, then he's a flip-flopping instigator, that put lives at risk so his buddies can insider trade oil futures. All of society should not be decided by the random whims of a lone tweeter, and there is no way he (or me) know if Iran's nuclear stuff was actually knocked out by bombs through a mountain
