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 :)

Content creators are not protected by copyright unless they have anywhere between $50k-300k and months of their time to waste an litigation.
The average cost for a federal copyright case is $278,000. Let's stop pretending this is for the little guy.
Most importantly you are only looking at the utility of Intellectual property to make money. Art and science exist outside this realm for thousands of years without it.
We are to sacrifice the way science and art have always worked so supposedly content creators can make money. If this is your argument I will have to take a hard pass.
