It was created more for specialization than to split the community. As others have pointed out, anonymity is a particular kind of privacy. There’s no exclusivity. You can be in both.

Though it’s hard to know the effect of another sub, Privacy is one of the largest subs here so seems one of the most likely to be able to survive an offshoot.

What is reasonable doubt when it comes to machine learning?

For some reason it won’t load a temporary email over Tor, which I’m going to insist on since there’s no rush.

I support ending the federal tracking app requirement for re-entry into Canada but vaccine mandates are more complex. In the long term I suspect human bodies are going to need shots to be able to withstand whatever biotech might produce. Vaccines are useful human technology that require coordination for maximum effect, but I believe that coordination should come through education, certainly not violence. Whether denial of employment would count as force is an open question.

This isn’t what happened for me. They wanted an email confirmation so it’s rather chicken and egg. Maybe tutanota will work as an initial provider then i can get a protonmail. It seems these services have their ideas about which are acceptable for what.

I tried Yandex but I think since I’m using Tor they limited my account and asked for SMS. ProtonMail required email confirmation from another email so it’s rather chicken and egg. Some systems work on an invite principle so that could work, or maybe to request an account with an appeal in text. Finally, if spam is the issue paying with some crypto might be possible.

The problem is the whole model of collecting and using data to control us. Our interests become liabilities when we are shown what we like plus a little bit of fear, comedy, and outrage.

You make some good points. I say let the FBs and Apples fight it out and let us go on with what we’re truly interested in. Use Tor and try to create the free, privacy-respecting life that you want for yourself and loved ones.
