    Not need to force anyone to use anything mate!

    Here is my personal example: I made my choices a long time ago…

    I ditched ANY:

    • M$ related product/service;
    • ALL Meta (as in Wazaaap);
    • closed source apps;
    • i have 0 IoTs around my ass, but a nice computer infrastructure built in more than a few decades;
    • no friends around with i Phones …

    AND still I need to do so much about privacy and my life in general and I continue to learn & apply as much as I can…

    Also, I kindly invited and explained others why I choose to ditch products/software/companies/people that do not respect Humans in general and consider all of as as being just dumb “assets”…

    Indeed it feels lonely sometimes, but i prefer the silence rather than noise/propaganda/parotting/or really any kind of bullshit.

    Peace!

    Always I see this kind of “mixed” good/bad points comments. Wonder what it is and where does it come from…

    Now to get on track: The topic is simple ANY computer infrastructure CONSUMES a LOT of POWER so if you want to be easy on the PLANET RESOURCES we need to you use it WISELY

    Here are some suggestions:

    • stop people surveillange(aka gathering “advertising” data) and data hording from people devices like smartphones, routers, tv, smart anything like your fridge, ai assistant and other useless shit that only SPIES on you/us/me!

    • stopping running companies servers that do nothing and are useless or created for scopes that are not meaningful or that provide a real use;

    • stop creating and working for companies that do not promote/create technologies that support people and their long run sustainability…

    …

    I can continue with so many examples…

    I’m using /e/ os for more than 3 years on different devices (with some customizations) and it works like a charm. An important aspect is that you can install e on any phone that has the bootloader unlock and supports GSIs - theoreticaly any device that runs Android > 9

    /e/ has a gsi image which is neat!

    I don’t use nor promote any banking apps or other G**gle/proprietary dependendent apps.

    Why nobody talks more about e.foundation /e/ OS?

    Enlighten me please 🙂

    “we didn’t have a surveilance state of the scale that would come later”

    For all of you that preach communism please make an imagination exercise just for a minute and imagine what kind of Authoritarianism you ask for when you will have a neverseen kind of Technological Communism, using current available surveillance technology (in place) like your smartphone for example (which I know a lot of people don’t know what is its real use…)

    Crowds contribuitions are what they know it will always work.

    There will be enough ignorant and people lacking basic knowledge of the devices they use (or install in their homes) that will eventually give up everyones data/identity/etc.

    So even if you do everything perfect and have the reaources in terms of concealing your privacy or (what remained of it) the first time you meet your girlfriend and have dinner along with her iPhone all your work vanishes in a microsecond.

    This is most frustrating to people who know what i’m talking about!

    What you can do? Make people responsible, teach them!

    BTW: I’m offering part of my little time to anyone who wants to better understand what happens with and in their “smartphone”. Just drop a question and will try to answer to the best of my abilities. Monero accepted 🙂
