Reflecting on 10 years of progression towards a hyper digital life and it's amazing at how much is now online, traceable, censorship prone and not private.

In 2013;

- 80% of my transactions were in cash now 99% are digital

- No clouds everything was backed up locally with an external drive for safe measures

- All photos on my phone saved to the device and no iCloud

- Offline Mp3 players instead of Spotify

- Paper and pen instead of notes apps

- DVD's or Utorrent instead of streaming services

- Analogue watch instead of a smart watch

It's ironic because all of these come with huge privacy compromises at such a small convenience, 2024 I'm going to be more analogue. Just a small reflection for the end of 2023.
