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 :)

I like how the original OP mention in passing that Reddit is bad for privacy.
Like, no shit? How can a privacy community be even remotedly healthy in such an environment?
It's like having a club for how to avoid the police within a prison, regulated by the guards.
While I hate Reddit isn’t the fediverse basically horrible for privacy? It’s super easy to see everyone’s posts and IP addresses no? I thought anyone could basically download everything with very little effort and do whatever they want with it.
Yea, that is a good thing, nobody owns the info like this, it is public domain, as a place like this should be, in my opinion.
If you want private communities, I think matrix spaces are a great independent solution.
Yep. Still going in a better direction than Reddit though.
better direction for what?
