    You always have a choice. You can ditch your morals entirely, give up, be subservient to the capitalists and give your identity over fully to the system like the good little consumer slave you are and enjoy your normie life looking at your normie phone and toss us all out as tinfoil-hatted weirdos who almost convinced you to make your life worse for the sake of self-sufficiency, independence and privacy.

    No one in the real world will ever know, care, or judge you. Only you will know that you gave up, that every location you exist in is known about by someone behind a monitor being overseen by fascists. Every day! You can live with that, right? That’s a small thing to give up in the grand scheme of things, isn’t it? At least Youtube loaded today, right? It’s all worth it, lol.

    Just remember to type “thanks” in google keyboard whenever you want them to know you appreciate them. They log it.

      Oh yes I forgot that pointing out the flaws in privacy-related things, so people who are interested in switching know what they’re potentially getting in to, is a big NoNo here…all hail the perfect FOSS which can do no wrong.

        Don’t feel pressured by me. If you feel pressured yourself, it may be a form of projected guilt.

        If you don’t find privacy and security important enough to give up your connectivity or usability, that’s perfectly fine. I don’t have to live with it.

      Dead Kennedys were prophetic when they named one of their albums “Give me convenience or give me death”.
