doing a college paper on my stance on Internet privacy, and my experiences with it in my own life... but it requires scholarly research, has anyone smarter than me (preferably an expert in the subject) who is currently on Fedi done research into the matter? a paper, maybe?

preferably something of an anti-censorship and anti-government meddling stance, but i dont think i need to ask that considering all of us use a decentralized service xd

many thanks to all that might participate, ill be sure to credit you in the citations :]
