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

- 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

For me privacy is free speech, no one knows who I am, so I could say whatever I want.
Free speech never happens on Twitter, FB, Insta, cuz they all linked to our identity, or email, phone number....
exactly. thats why i only use temporary email to register. and use different username on different platform
Then do not use them. Use anonymous apps instead: Session, WireMin, SimpleX, Damus. I personally prefer WireMin because it has secret groups. Only members know I exist.
I used Session before switching to WireMin. It's a good choice for a private messenger, but not an app I would use daily.
I have a personal blog on WireMin, so I can post whatever I want. And I think they made interaction much easier, cuz I can explore public chat rooms and other people's blogs in the discovery section, which give me more stuff to do on the app.
This is the chat space on WireMin I like to check out daily, people usually talks about privacy news there. https://i.wiremin.com/invite/?g=k50898835053
