privatelife - privacy, security, freedom advocacy

You need to get more angry and burst a nerve, OR YOU CAN DO THIS… figure out what you want, stop obsessing over what others want, and if you really think you could bring a change, try it. You are writing a lot of weird things. And you lack maturity, no offense. I assume you are young.

Not many people who seek privacy these days are remotely even interested in attaining true privacy or anonymity, but merely circlejerking their choice of software, OS and phone brand on the internet. The understanding of privacy culture goes far deeper than the surface scratching you managed to do, let alone thinking you could resolve things for others. First resolve your inner conflict.

Much naive than a kid who haven't gone to high school.

I thought you have better education than me.

In “privacy” sense nobody cares about some Intel or Microsoft version of Linux or BSD. OpenBSD, NetBSD, most of them are similar enough, and they are not giving you security merely by using them. And I am not even going to get into the discussion of daily driver usability, because I daily Debian and have Windows debloated on dualboot.

They aren't giving me security. Never claimed.

They just teach me what is correct and superior, and that's my experience.

And they concentrate me on programming and computer science, not debloating or hardening !

Please do some serious data archival and preservation for atleast a decade to be eligible to talk on this topic.

Legally.

Unusable.

Yes, I teach, but I also address/teach the philosophy of open versus closed source software in Linux/Windows guide. F(L)OSS is not inherently an ideology or religion you seem to treat it like. It is simply a different way of licensing software code, and at a very basic level it bifurcates into a transparent (freedom) software development culture. Capitalists and advertisers abusing closed source methods to cloak malware/spyware does not make closed sourcing itself fundamentally evil. The intent of those horrible people (and 3 letter agencies) is what counts.

At the time I was mentioning the refusal to have microcode. (if I recall correctly you are the guy who advocate this)

You can whine as much as you want. I have shown everyone what I can do, and have done. Asked no money and formed no harassing cult around it, worked against it.

What you do is writing bullshit "You will not believe this, but Linux and Windows are almost identical today". If the setup is bloated (for guys who doesn't do programming), they are identical. (practical privacy, again?)

It is not doing anything noticeable for security. They just market (mostly) snake oil, and have a bunch of users shilling it from 4chan to reddit to Telegram. Rebranding AOSP features is not a feat by any means. I have talked about this before and I will not address it again.

Linux-hardened and hardened_malloc? hardened_malloc broke firefox.
