A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

Open source OS everywhere, as many foss apps as possible, no google services, no social media, texting through Signal and Matrix, Librewolf configured to throw away all cookies (exept whitelisted sites).
Interesting! Is librewolf a personal choice or is there a particular reason? Also if I may ask are you on Linux?
Librewolf is a good alternative to hardened Firefox as it comes with sane defaults, removes - instead of disabling - Mozilla crap and doesn't require maintenance.
Although, I personally think trying to achieve privacy by using a less secure engine like Gecko is counter productive and futile.
