NOTHING IS FREE. IF YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR THE PRODUCT, LOOK IN THE MIRROR. IT'S YOU, YOU ARE THE PRODUCT. WAKE UP TO THE BULLSHIT. NO KYC, NO GOOLAG. PRIVACY ISYOURS DON'T GIVE IT AWAY

If I can just get him to grok that his house is going up in value because the unit of currency he is measuring it in, is going down...

In retrospect, what a strange, sad route the internet went down. The lengths one has to go to not get constantly harvested. Anyway, a happy New Year to you!
What makes it worse is that 95% of the people have no idea of what goes on behind it.
I always tell friends, if the amazon delivery guy started asking you questions like: what time were you using your computer last week, what model is your computer, did you search for anything else in Amazon or any other site, how long did you look for these products, did you speak about it with anyone, how old are you, etc etc etc
how long would it take before you would tell him to f*** off? not long...
online it happens 10x worse and people don't even think about it.
How can we fix this?
Yes it is us being harvested. The Matrix got it almost right (quote from Aral Balkan) - https://slides.sebastix.dev/digitaal-welzijn/#/1/5

"SO? I HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE"
The single most troubling phrase in our modern world: "I have nothing to hide"
I have friends who think they can outrun inflation by acquiring more dollars and taking on more counterparty risk by chasing yield and extracting value out of others with rent. The incumbent system pats people on the head for this, making them think they're smart. Pretty insidious. One of them even said to me that "the key to freedom is laying low beneath the system" π€‘π€‘π€‘π€‘π€‘
I may have to ditch them one day

Education.. hard though with our schoolastic foundations mostly born from the 17th and 18th centuries of thought and human capability - we're being programmed to stop reading and writing and instead have subjugated ourselves to corpo morals and their teaching methods.

Thats like announcing you like to use the toilet with the door open for all to see. Privacy and secrecy are so very different...

2023 ppl are sharing there eye Scan, we need to be more honest, normies don't give a shit. Our efforts should focus in making π remember how important privacy is
Agreed
So true
Trust me, it isnβt. Trust me.
I think that it's too abstract for those people and they are already too addicted
and if there is just one thing maybe it will be easer but each their "daily app" is problematic : instant messaging, emails, searching, browser, social network, paying with phone, shop app (for example in europe there is Lidl app) and in cities you have transportation app, parking app ...
Thatβs the most concise explanation: addiction.
In the digital age, voting is happening with your software usage and capital, ballots are meaningless.
Not sure what's the least-resistance way for people to realize this
FOSS.
GrapheneOS on mobiles, Linux on computers, private servers (@start9) to host all your data; all connected via Tor. People don't realize the cost of freely handing your data to third parties such as Google and Apple. When they do, the cost will be too great.
Self-reliance is true freedom.
The cost of privacy is convenience. Self hosting is not easy, but the cost of not doing it will be greater.
