@dbattistella@mstdn.ca The best treatment is to DeGoogle. Did you know, when setting up an Android device, you can skip the Google sign ins? It means you won't access the Google Play Store but that is a good thing. Use the FOSS store instead. Ask me how.

@redsad@ohai.social they all want AI and data centres.

@dyckron@cosocial.ca Did the managers realise they are most susceptible?

@BlueBrogues@social.vivaldi.net @dbattistella@mstdn.ca Bing? No thatnks. That enables surveillance king, anti human Bill Gates.

@phaedral@beige.party @MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @dbattistella@mstdn.ca Really? Years ago, Brave tried the crypto thing. It included a decentralised wallet and pushed the BAT token. Was a great idea but it never took off. More recently, the moved to being a generalised crypto enabler for want of a better word. Just turn it off.

@MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @dbattistella@mstdn.ca What is up with Firefox?

@RaymondPierreL3@aus.social Meanwhile the US government is merging their military with said globalists.

@RaymondPierreL3@aus.social those wanting digital ID and AI.

@OrionKidder@mas.to just need people to wake up to those seeking to destroy Linux include the likes of Gavin Newsome.

@phaedral@beige.party @MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @dbattistella@mstdn.ca So turn it off.

@storiesofapple@bitbang.social @MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @dbattistella@mstdn.ca Why not?

@storiesofapple@bitbang.social @MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @dbattistella@mstdn.ca You can turn off advertisements, they pushed a decentralised wallet and the BAT token (great idea by the way), referral links? Never heard of them.

@misty@digipres.club make bigtech uncool.

@libreoffice@fosstodon.org can you please implement paste without formatting by default?

@libreoffice@fosstodon.org It isn't risky because we all want it. We need it either changed or code to change the right click -> Paste function.

@gbargoud@masto.nyc @PallasRiot@social.treehouse.systems Yes technically they can, doesn't mean we should act like nazis too though.

@gbargoud@masto.nyc @PallasRiot@social.treehouse.systems You have answered your own question.

@Strongbow@mastodon.nu @hazelnot@sunbeam.city @dbattistella@mstdn.ca That is terrible. Is anyone resisting? What about old people?

@Strongbow@mastodon.nu @hazelnot@sunbeam.city @dbattistella@mstdn.ca That is horrible.

@indivisibleteam@mastodon.social Are those committing genocide the fascists?

@PallasRiot@social.treehouse.systems Voting in a block is more powerful and less risky.

@hazelnot@sunbeam.city @dbattistella@mstdn.ca I haven't used a banking app in years. Just use your browser. I've found Brave is the best for desktop and mobile. I hope the day that we are required to carry an approved operating system never comes but I fear it is.

@hazelnot@sunbeam.city @dbattistella@mstdn.ca Ok, I will search for a newer list.

@hazelnot@sunbeam.city @dbattistella@mstdn.ca I spend about 10 minutes turning everything off Brave upon a fresh install. It is a PITA. Your bank will have a web presence. Go there and look for a login button. It should present a form requesting credentials. 2FA might be involved. Find out what they are asking for and call your bank requesting help on filling it in. This way, you will at least have some clues as to what they want which will be something like an account number and password. Here in Melbourne, Australia, I just switched back to traditional banking. There is no internet account. This means using a debit card, yet I mostly use cash. I do a lot of shopping now at local stores and a local market on Sundays. I don't miss it at all. Is this something you could do... if you want to?

@MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @phaedral@beige.party @dbattistella@mstdn.ca Just turn that crap off. It is still the most mature privacy focused browser.
