Remember, privacy and anonymity are not the same thing. Signal is an app for private communications, not anonymous communications.

You can have privacy without anonymity, and you can have anonymity without privacy, and either/both of those can be secure or insecure.

He's hardcore anti-corpo and money-interests, so much that he refuses any sponserships and condemns them universally.

Good stuff, well researched, only downside is that he takes a long time to upload stuff.

I think we are likely moving in the direction of a surveillance state, but not in the way that the UK or China do it. The State won't spend billions on an extensive network of cameras and sensors, they will merely write laws that require private companies to hand over any footage deemed relevant.

This is already happening with companies like Ring. It makes sense when I think about it, because it saves billions of dollars and offloads all the infrastructure management onto the private sector while still reaping the benifits.

I hadn't really thought about it like that until now. It is like a distributed surveillance network with almost zero cost and overhead, scary.

Onewheel is a garbage, monopolistic company that spits on consumer rights.

I've been on the Proton premium plan for about a year and a half and love it.

I mostly use it for Email and the VPN, but I do use Proton drive for some random stuff.

I don't use Proton Pass because I already use Bitwarden for all my PW management needs.

Email and calendar services have been pretty much flawless so far. I like the interface, the Proton mail bridge works well for desktop clients like Thunderbird if you want to use those. The apps work really well on my Android device, all of them, Calendar, Mail, and VPN.

My torrent box Proton VPN CLI app has been solid too.
