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 :)

Yes, but we need people like you to provide that content. In short, don't expect other people to be that change; that change starts with you. Thanks for the resources and level-headed opinion. People in general who use any service provider for "privacy reasons" should only do so to keep the issuing company from scanning their messages and selling data about you. Email itself, regardless of how it's set up, will fail you if you're thinking it will keep you hidden.
My privacy community c/privatelife is in the sidebar of c/privacy ;)
Besides, I have provided massive amounts of content in the form of comments on Lemmy, on this year old account of mine. I am also on Reddit, where my r/privatelife exists.
