Negative thoughts flooded my mind. The EU is constantly trying to push Chat Control. They're blocking bootloaders on phones, introducing ID and face scanning everywhere, in the US they're trying to push system-level verification, corporations are spitting in our faces and don't even hide it. I know we have to fight. My personal rebellion was joining Fediverse and Lemmy and quitting Reddit. But seriously, boss—I'm tired. Are our attempts to preserve internet freedom futile? Can we win against corporations and politicians who we pay but don't listen to us?

It's a mess when the right wing control freaks are in the gov. The only thing a user can currently do is avoiding as much as possible these platforms, using instead eg. P2P for communications (https://otr.to/, https://github.com/michal-wrzosek/p2p-chat, https://mesh.im/, etc.). Because of this and big corps the internet is dying, I see the future only in decentralized networks, I2P or something like this for an communication without a big brother in the middle.
