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 :)

What's up with this website popping in my feed for the 6th time in less than a week ?
Edit : nevermind, after digging the website for a grand total of 5 seconds, it appears to be an advertising website for Ente (which has a paid plan besides being self hostable). That's shitty marketing from them if you ask me
6th time? I saw posts citing this site only twice here on Lemmy: 12 days ago and now, across two different communities from two different instances.
From a quick search on my instance, I could find 3 posts that are still up, and I could also find specific comments I remembered from a post that got removed since.
That's at least 4 occurrences on Lemmy alone
I did not criticize people sharing it here, but rather Ente themselves for making vague fear-mongering claims for viral marketing purposes
