“Signal: CIA”

Seems unsubstantiated

Enablers are as bad as the people they are enabling IMO

How is this pervwear not the main issue

What are these names? I couldnt see them in the patron list

I think this is a very priveleged take if we actually care about advocating for digital sovereignty.

In a perfect world, sure, build and manage a server with self hosted infrastructure. In reality people care about this stuff rarely actually have the money, time, skills or drive to manage a project like that confidently.

Its normal for people to want to allocate management of their services to a provider with trust to circumvent this.

For actualnconstructive advice to the people who can’t do this: Try looking up to see if their are any nonprofit email hosting services in your country - they exist but usually don’t do marketing and are often built on strong values. If not I really think using services like Tuta, proton, etc is leaps forward for your safety, privacy and ethics compared to Google, Microsoft, etc.

Games when you buy them even if they are in disc format are dubiously licensed and not DRM-free anyway so like I dont get it - do gamers just want the illusion of owning games ?
