My privacy journey started with a YouTube video by SomeOrdinaryGamers about the Club Penguin Online doxing situation in 2020. Then, through Techlore and other YouTubers, I learned about private browsers, VPNs, password managers, Linux, FOSS, and more. What made you start?

Yeah, Techlore was huge for me too. His site helped me find a lot of privacy-respecting alternatives. Mr. Robot was also a great show to watch at the time!

I know the name but haven't seen the show, I'll have to check it out. Its funny, years ago I watched the movie Antitrust but it all went over my head. Recently I watched it again and nerded out to the linux/Foss ideaology in it.

@paradox2011 @ellioswa Mr. Robot is both timeless and emblematic of the time it was made. Despite how is starts, it spends a lot of time not being a Hackerman show
