A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

With accounts that are less data-miney, you can replace all your account details (name, email addy, region, etc.) with gibberish and wait for it all to update, and then replace your password so not even you can get into it.
If it's more data-miney and you are willing to put in a few months / years of maintenance, you can trickle in the gibberish and false data until it's thoroughly poisoned.
