Now that Google , FB wants to trap us and control every aspect of the Internet browsing, Is it even possible to break free.

Or creating new Internet is a unrealistic idea ?

Whats nice is that tor users are a paranoid bunch of fuckers. If its not plain fuckin html they want nothing to do with it. You can forget about your javascript, 3rd party cookies, external shit of any kind. All that gets left at the door.

I personally run Tails OS as a daily driver. Not only does it keep others safe, but it keeps me from tracking my own online presence.

Sadly, I can't run tails. My laptop is one of the very few that have some sort of hardware issue with it and will not run. It just gives me a kernel panic.

That's too bad, I've always liked Tails. Was lucky that it ran on a mid 2012 MacBook Pro, but the non-working hardware list is pretty large. Some people prefer Qubes and Whonix anyway
