This is exactly what i just did. No regrets. Foss everything, no mainstream social media. I love it
The Fediverse is not perfect, but it actually blew my mind a bit how much it lowered my blood pressure to not see the constant ragebait, and the calm of not being exposed and monitored at all times. I still have Snapchat just for one person, and WhatsApp which is Meta but still E2EE. Other than that, I’m all in on FOSS privacy approved apps and man does it feel great.
Here it’s us, real people rage-baiting you on employer time!
Ah yes, organic rage bait instead of Ai swirls fancy wine
WhatsApp which is Meta but still E2EE
As far as you are told. There is no verification that is true.
It is actually verified e2ee. However, they do keep a ‘spare key’ for every single user and chat, you know, in case they need to help you, the good guys at Meta.
Can you show me where it’s verified? Did someone get to see the code?
As far as I’m aware Moxie Marlinspike made the encryption before it was acquired by Facebook. One of the founders of WhatsApp now finances Marlinspike’d Signal messenger.
In theory Meta only sees who you communicate with, but not what you communicate.
(I wouldn’t be surprised if the bastards are trying to undo the encryption if they already haven’t.)
before it was acquired by Facebook
not that it really matters, but it was a few years after the acquisition.
Buying new is still screwing yourself over. Buy second hand and take advantage of all the fools thinking they have to upgrade every year.
Most used pixels are oem locked verizon ones. They say unlocked, but they only mean carrier unlocked.
From google? I got mine from second hand market
I don’t trust Google hardware
What other hardware do you trust, if any?
Only Chinese. OnePlus and Motorola. . I’m waiting on Motorola to release a device specifically for graphene
What makes Chinese hardware more trustworthy?
It’s not made by a US company. Meaning there is no insensives to add us gov backdoors or something for military or for companies like palantir.
Google is an ad company. They have insensitives to collect all the data on us.I hate big tech too but i promise you China is no better.
I’m. I’m going to disagree. All the antihuman inventions like AI and palanter recently seems to be coming from domestic geniuses
Oh yeah cause China is known for freedom and privacy.
