WOO! This is proof that we actually have power! I am so relieved to see that democracy still exists here!

A VPN? That routes the traffic to the other server, so the ISP can only see you’re connecting to a VPN. Most people recommend Mullvad, I personally use Proton and Windscribe, both free, open source, and trusted.

I’ve never used it, but I’ve heard good things about Notesnook.

It’s because you skipped the transition process.

The free to free pipeline is real.

NO! We can’t lose this!

On the bright side, they got rid of one domain and three more popped up, just like Cerberus!

Never had a problem on Lemmy or Mastodon with a VPN. If you create a Reddit account through a VPN, though, you will get shadowbanned. I made my Lemmy and Mastodon accounts with a VPN and had zero issues.

Glad to see so many against, horrible to see that many for, let’s not let this get passed.

Ever since switching I’ve needed to hold myself back from mentioning it in every conversation. I thought it was a meme, but it’s real!

Thanks, I’ll check it out! It seems like a very popular suggestion

Thank you so much! Kdenlive is a popular suggestion so I’ll check it out

Thank you!

Thanks!

Literally how can they enforce this on Linux? It’s open-source, people just won’t choose those versions or edit that out of the code.

This is a wonderful video.

No, I would never trust them. General rule of thumb: don’t trust Youtube advertisements. They seem very sketchy to me. Why would these companies and data brokers willingly delete your data by just asking? Not to mention that it would instantly resurface in a million other areas. The best thing to do is to instead not give out that information in general, or not make it obvious who you are.

No, no, but try to recognise and change some of your writing habits.

The article barely mentions this, and I haven’t seen comments here mentioning it, but a huge factor in determining identities is one’s writing style. In fact, analyzing the way people speak and write is its own science (linguistic forensics) and is also used by law enforcement (though can realistically be done by anyone with OSINT and basic understanding of individual linguistic patterns.) Dead giveaways are especially if you consistently misspell a certain word or use a certain emoticon or uncommon phrase or word, it’s like a linguistic footprint. If Andy123 on Reddit and XxwhateverxX both spell appearance as appearence and both say booyah and both spell :) as (:, then it is much easier to tell that they may be the same person. This is something that you must be aware of, as well as giving out personal information like country of origin, amount of pets, place of work, etc.

Having exit nodes for their VPN is not the same as collaborating with the government. There is no evidence that the Israeli government has access to any of their information, their servers are hosted in Switzerland.
