How about Vivaldi?? I’ve switched since last year and it’s been pretty great of a browser. There’s the focus on privacy, ethical/transparent policies, and its development team are users of fediverse socials!

I couldn’t have articulated this quite as well as you but my friends laughed me off when I said to them that a foreign country/power is almost certainly pulling the strings and taking over the US. Granted they are no fans of führer musk or his pal trump, but you can bet I’ll be reiterating this point the next time I speak with them, doing my best to mask my “I told you so” tone (yes I’m petty).

But führer musk is rich so he doesn’t have to play by acting-president trump’s rules.

Now I’m curious if the vpn I use will consider a similar approach going forward (PIA).

Sure he said he was going to do those things and had weapons, but for all we know, he could be a “fine person, a great man” there to “peacefully protest” like those that got pardoned for Jan 6th. 😒

Ahh so it was like a free-spirited manifesto letter they wrote for posterity? Shame that it’s not a law or otherwise legally binding document.

I’m no political scientist or savvy follower of politics, but isn’t there a paragraph or two in the Declaration of Independence about our right (duty even) to overthrow such dictators…?

Sadly, those in power here lack the integrity and conviction to follow suit 😕

Dang it, it sounds almost like a subscription that tax payers will end up having to pay into
