You are also in another world of hurt if you think anarchy works at all. History it doesn’t. Neither does libertarianism and libertarians are just anarchists that don’t want to admit they are anarchist.
I’m suddenly really interested in what warped view of history you’ve developed. What social institutions and broad philosophical norms would you say have worked historically?
Before the recent API purge, you could access public data from sites like Reddit and Twitter pretty easily too. I mean it’s still easy now, just not free. The same thing used to be true for Facebook, but their API purge was several years ago and their data model made less data straightforwardly public.
Personally I’d rather have my public posts be straightforwardly public than the illusion of privacy provided by sites like Facebook. Maybe a lot of people can get away with treating messages to a private Facebook group as private a lot of the time, but it’s simply a wrong mental model that will lead to wrong decisions. A message can either be private or be broadcast to an open-ended set of people - not both.
Yes, posts you make to public forums are public.
Obviously. What sort of moron wouldn’t be prepared to defend themselves from angry bees or whatever Pooh was afraid of.
What carrier? Do voice calls work?
Currently a Pixel with an anonymous custom ROM, although I’ve got a PinePhone on my desk I need to test more.
Cell phones are incompatible with privacy. Any phone necessarily constantly sends your location to your cell provider just in order to work. But even if that’s true, there’s no reason to also let someone else be the remote administrator for a sensor node with a camera and microphone that you carry everywhere. Running a mobile OS with a universal backdoor is bad times.
I tried doing a Mastodon user migration (to a Pleroma instance), and it basically just didn’t’ work. This is one of those thing where the code is likely to rot from lack of testing.
This is the sort of thing that’d be really easy to implement (or hire someone to implement if you’re not a develper).
I haven’t gotten a good chance to re-evaluate the PinePhone recently, but aside from that Android is basically the only option out there.
Is there some reason that wall won’t work fine?
