VPNs can help you to hide your traffic so that your ISP doesn't know what you are doing. You move trust from the ISP to a VPN provider. There are good providers out there. If you want to have a more trustless setup install your own VPN server which is pretty easy.
Here is a very easy script for the installation
https://github.com/angristan/wireguard-install
Rent a VPS anonymous from us or choose any provider you want. But thats a much more trustless way.
Also you have the advantage that your IP isn't blocked by some services as it doesn't belong to a well known VPN subnet.
This sound really interesting. I'm going to give this a try. Thank you for sharing!

The health of your mind is for me number one. In the past I waved stoicism away, not being useful or important. Now I think it's a main priority for dealing with life. Getting to practice it is a real challenge though.
What is most important for you?
### LocalSend
Airdrop for Android
(Share files with any other device regardless if it's Apple, Microsoft, phone or computer.)
LocalSend (localsend.org) is an open source, cross-platform file sharing app that makes file sharing a breeze, as long as all devices have access to the same local network, either though WiFi or through a wired connection.
LocalSend boasts these features:
- Cross-Platform (Linux, Android, Apple, MS)
- Send files to mutiple devices at once
- Easy intuitive user-friendly interface
- Open Source
- GitHub link:
github.com/localsend/localsend
Other Android Fileshare Options:
- KDEConnect
kdeconnect.kde.org/
- (Also requires Local Network)
- Nextcloud Files
nextcloud.com/files/
- Similar to Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.
- Can password protect files/folders
- Can set expiration on file/folder shares
LocalSend is easier to use than KDEConnect, but file share is all it does. KDEConnect is still great for sending text messages from you laptop through your phone, sharing your clipboard, and for controlling slideshow presentations from your phone.
For personal file transfer bewteen your phone and your Linux computer, the traditional SFTP transfer is still more convienent as it integrates right into some file browsers, such as Material Files.

Great options. Thank you for sharing.
Onion Share is also a secure sharing option:
This is so accurate and hilarious 🤣😂🤣😂 https://blossom.primal.net/210682c494ea75af3367c568107c0a42ce3ebc2631101401e43fde7730dec60d.mp4
United Nations Home Security. The best security you can buy.
I fully agree. Unfortunately it's usually the path a newcomer takes when buying his/her first bitcoin.
There are even more risks involved when buying from an exchange that requires you to verify yourself:

Get sats back when you buy something online with a merchant that is supported by Satsback. Now their login also supports Nostr and ln auth login :-)

Fantastic!
OUT FUCKING RAGEOUS!
The FT markets columnist, Katie Martin, on bitcoin.
Martin has covered bitcoin for 7 + years at the FT and still, openly, does not get it.
This is 100% real, not ai, (except the gag at the end).

I cut together her comments from a Strategy video below.
Video:
Why does she still get paid to write about what she clearly doesn't understand. Usually you become an expert over time, but not her.
But what if she did get it, wouldn't she be an outsider? Maybe she just wants to fit in to be more comfortable.

⚡️👀 WATCH - Mining Bitcoin with a Bitaxe while driving down the highway.
Imagine the possibilities for long distance truckers... 🚛

Looks amazing!
I've never imagined mining Bitcoin on a moving location. What would the difference be vs mining at home? I don't understand what good possibilities this could have good long distance truckers.
When traveling, don’t connect to public Ethernet or WiFi without something inbetween. Preferably with VPN embedded. Like mulvad wireguard. We’ve sold this device peer2peer a lot. Why? Because people want to protect themselves and have some privacy…

What is the difference in privacy with the smart router vs having vpn on your mobile phone?
⚡️🤖 NEW - Co-founder John Collison says Stripe is betting on an agentic commerce future.
Most purchases still happen in a browser but that’s changing. With MCP (Model Context Protocol), AI agents can transact directly inside the tools people already use.
“It’s kind of funny... an AI can do everything for you, but you still have to manually enter the details. That is clearly not going to persist.”
https://blossom.primal.net/b79f1dd1d7586479fc187d2a9a5ee7b6ece47417097c71f2645b4e859e52da4f.mov
Really increasing to see which direction AI developments are going. Less need for the browser in the future and more APIs.
I agree with a slight adjustment:
You make better decisions if you're married and have kids and have an open curious always learning mind, that also things different than the majority of the world population.
How can you tell it's lost based on on-chain data?
I think you could probably also take into account Satoshi's mined bitcoin. Those will probably never be moved.
⚡️🇺🇸 NEW - FBI Director Kash Patel: "If you harm our children, you will be given no sanctuary. There is no place we will not come to hunt you down. There is no place we will not look for you. And there is no cage we will not put you in should you do harm to our children."

I don't believe they actually care. Maybe Um too dark for thinking this, but they have their own dark priorities, I assume.
This video is amazing. It's about ~2 hours before the senate of Canada, if I remembered correctly, and I learned a lot!
An option is to use git and email? The Linux kernel developers have been doing this successfully for years.
It will be written in the history books that genocide and stealing a whole country could happen without any country helping the Palestinians.
What if regulations goes rogue so that mining can't be profitable anymore or it's outright banned?
It's not yours, they can do with "our money" what they want. Freeze, block or close your account.
It's not in the bank. The money is invested. When everybody withdraws their "money", the bank would probably go bankrupt, because it's not there.
It is not money. This is an interesting one. I assume it's not money, because it's not a bearer token? With cash, the coins and paper, it's a bearer token. The token is the mo MBB ey. In your bank account it's all digital and it can be manipulated.
How would you explain that it's not money?
It makes sense to save it for long-term savings, but it's also great if you want to buy goods/services anonymously without insane middleman with infinite totalitarian regulations. If I can buy online services without a creditcard with bitcoin, I think that's a better option.
Same here. It always works with a vpn and I always use it with a vpn.

The fucking irony.
Very sad people.
What kind of solutions are decentralized and encrypted for using email, chat, hiding your ip, browsing the internet? What kind of solutions do you use?
Fantastic that you build a tool to help people with their addiction and let them connect.
I wonder how people will find the onboarding and if they're willing to use it. It would be great if that's a section where people could give a review of how they've experienced the app. This could make onboarding easier.
I'm going to try out the aop. I'm interested to see how it's build.
People are even afraid to buy $10 of bitcoin with my help.
