I'm a Proton user too and I use all the available tools/services. It was a hard job to switch from Google to Proton, now it looks like I'm fcked again. So I don't know where I can go to receive the same kind of tools + where ethics still mean something.

    So what do we have tot use then? All tech is so globalised that even EU-based soft is not independent/safe tot use. If Proton is not good anymore, what is?

    Please explain to me. I moved away from Big Tech and installed - even on my old MacBook Pro 2015 - Linux Mint. I use open source software and my social media is on Fedivers. I tought I was "safe" by using Linux, but the Linux Foundation is sponsord by a lot of money by Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Google, etc... etc... the exact companies I try to take some distance off. Can somebody please explain me if Linux is "sold" to US Big Tech now?

    Ofcourse this would happen. Every EV car has a sort-kind-of-black-box and a gps. So every car knows exactely what speed it is allowed to drive on the roads. In the future - when you have an accident - the insurrance company can investigate the black box of your car and see immediately what speed you were driving on that particular gps-point. With your mobile phone connected to the car, it can also see immediately who was driving the car, etc... It was written in the stars many years ago.

    I'm using Libretube on my Murena e/OS phone. It's still content from YT, but no tracking or advertisement from YT. You don't need a YT account and still benefit all YT content.... Anonymous.
