Privacy recommendations? Improving our community's tech literacy 🧿 (Updated) - eviltoast

It’s good for all of us to be privacy literate, given that things can take a turn for the worse in many places, or already are bad. There was a post a few days ago that highlighted how the vast majority of trans people rely on internet access 🤔

I’ll start by saying that matrix seems to be a solid solution for communication, and tor for accessing information. It’s worth it to get familiar with them before you need them yourself, but also to understand them as a community so we can support each other globally 🏳️‍⚧️

I am also wondering if any of you are familiar with getting around network restrictions. For example a DIY mesh network? 📡

    Well, kinda boils down to the following in my eyes

    Avoid corpo sites and real emails.

    E2ee

    Proxies

    Not revealing your face and location publicly. First name is an acceptable risk if its a common name, otherwise avoid that too
