Lyn Alden explains why Bitcoin makes more sense to people outside America than within it.

Unfortunately Bitcoin gets worthless soon. Governments bring out mandatory government wallets which are tied to the E-ID which are rolled out around the globe right now. All the financial transactions have to go through this wallet, which is technically a ban of Bitcoin and co.
Isn't Microsoft is spy software?
Everybody should switch to Linux anyway.
Would be nice it would backfires. Unfortunately most people are sheeps, agree, accept and don't care.
Google has to stop doing evil things!
#Google looked at the fact that people can use Android without ever needing to link their entire devices to a Google Account which is just a fansy way of saying Google ID, and thought.. well.. time to end sideloading by requiring developers to register to new platform submit their #government ID and pay a fee as well (i know right!🖕), link all the IDs of their apps so then their apps can be sideloaded to Android by users
This is not about security, this is about ending people ability to not be linked, I have set up people's devices to be more private and secure without ever needing a Google account, in fact I told people.. many people I met.. you don't need to have a Google account just so you can download apps
I used #Fdroid, nostr:npub10r8xl2njyepcw2zwv3a6dyufj4e4ajx86hz6v4ehu4gnpupxxp7stjt2p8 and Aurora, enabled private DNS with Mullvad, used #DuckDuckGo Tracking Protection (it takes the #VPN slot), disabled all telemetry settings and sometimes i even deboat their ROMs with Adb.. It makes their phones usable (no on screen ads), less bloated, less power hungry.. people often ask me? well what about my Gmail account or Yahoo or whatever? Here's the solution: Fairmail
with this upcoming change, even if the user turns on: allow installing from unknown sources, their sideloaded app will not install because the developer hasn't verified themselves with Google and paid them for the privilege to do so 🙄🤬😾, the Os will just refuse to install it
This can be mitigated with a custom ROM, but c'mon how many people have the technical know how? I'm a nerd and LineageOS wiki still scares me..
Also, custom ROM support is slowly fading in the Market, Evil companies like #Samsung and #Xiaomi go out of their way to lock the boatloader.. and completely remove alternative OS support
#Monopoly is a curse to mankind
#privacy #bigtech #rom #evil #surveillance #control
The only solution I see is to fully push Linux phone OS and make it usable. Additionally, attract major companies to develop Linux apps for their services.
Time to get a Linux phone!
Use a privacy AI like venice.ai, duck.ai or Lumo.proton.mi
F-Droid says Google’s new sideloading restrictions will kill the project!
Welcome to the social credit system
All the western countries will force that on their citizens soon!
Switch to Linux!
YouTube died.
More and more people will use alternatives.
Alternatives to Big Tech/Big Data:
Windows, Apple, Google -> Linux (Debian, Fedora, Mint, Arch...)
Microsoft Office -> LibreOffice, Only Office
Google Android, Apple iOS -> Pixel with GrapheneOS, Fairphone 6 with /e/OS, Fairphone 5 with Ubuntu Touch, Brax 3 with iode OS/Ubuntu Touch,
OneDrive, Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox, etc. -> Nextcloud, MEGA, pCloud, Proton Drive
Outlook, Gmail, etc. -> Proton Mail, Tutanota
Airdrop, Link to Windows -> Localsend, KDE Connect
WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage -> Element, Threema, SimpleX, Session, White Noise
Google Search -> Ecosia, Qwant, Startpage, Duckduckgo
ChatGPT -> venice.ai, duck.ai, Lumo
YouTube -> Peertube, Odysee, or as an anonymous YT client: Newpipe, PipePipe or Freetube
Instagram -> Pixelfed, FotoApp
Facebook, X (Twitter) -> Nostr
VPN -> Mullvad, Proton
This is just a first overview of the most important alternatives for switching. Feel free to continue if needed!

Didn't even the Swiss Military got hacked recently?
Good luck when your E-ID get stolen.
It is voluntarily? Voluntarily for how long?
Soon you have to sign up everywhere with this E-ID! Uncomfortable people can get banned everywhere with one click. It's the beginning of the social credit score.
If the people vote against the ID this time, they will just implemente in 2 years.
Privacy is death
Complete surveillance is here!
Once again, Google fails to safeguard its Play Store from malware infiltration, proving it untrustworthy.
Revolut has gotten worse. High fees and they blocked their app on android custom rom! This makes revolute totally useless! They force you to use a spying Google Android!
Stay away from Revolut!
The EU wants creepy AI to scan EVERY message you send. Even the encrypted ones. 😱
But guess who’s EXEMPT?
✅ Government
✅ Military
❌ YOU
That’s not just hypocrisy – that’s Orwellian surveillance.

Right
And only use YouTube trough the NewPipe or PipePipe app!
If any random app asks for government issued IDs with a selfie, it's a major red flag. 🚩 Do not provide them. Please share this warning with all your friends/family. You should only provide government issued ID when it's for something critical, such as:
* Getting a passport
* Obtaining a citizenship card
* Acquiring a driving license
* Opening bank accounts
Any other request for your ID by any app will likely lead to it being leaked or sold, putting everyone at risk. It's a sad reality
