A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.

- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

thanks for the recommendation, but unfortunately due to my privacy settings, most cloudflare sites do not work, I just get endless "are you human" prompts that never go away.
Plus any site that uses crimeflare isn't private anyway because they can MITM all your traffic including credit card info etc.
If you're on Tor, that's the very unfortunate reality atm. If you're on a VPN, you may try switching providers or servers inside the same provider. I can recommend Mullvad, which works very well, even if you get some CAPTCHAs.
Neither, it happens because my browser settings make it more difficult for them to fingerprint me which makes it think I'm a bot or something untrustworthy.
Interesting, my Discord profile is also very hardened, and while it prompts me for confirmation, it's always doable in a moment
