Fight the #EU & it's Orwellian Law✊
People will install Custom #Android ROM's on their #SmartPhone's (Stops EU Scanning App) & people will use App's like:
#SessionMessenger
#SimpleXChat
Maybe even #MatrixChat over #Tor or #I2P
Also EU people will turn to VPNs outside of the all seeing eye👁️ of the EU🇪🇺
The baddies will surely be doing all of that, so this law will stop nothing

@tunkuluchu Buena suerte, me gusta #signal, me gusta #SessionMessenger, me gusta Matrix, pero nadie quiere hacer el esfuerzo de crear una cuenta.

Un problema poco relacionado pero que creo que ayuda a que la gente no cree nuevas cuentas es que no usan gestores de contraseñas y les da cosa estar creando cuentas que no recordarán.

Tan facilito que es usar #bitwarden

#censorship is a thing on the modern internet, more so than ever with west and east clashing in #imperialist_wars . We, the people, need to keep in touch with those on the other side of the fences.

#Signal has announced Censorship Circumvention. This lets users in areas were Signal is blocked still use it through masking and proxies. There is hope forks of Signal such as #SessionMessenger may follow.

In the name of #privacy and #security , here is how to activate it:
