Privacy community, I need your help.
I want a DUMB TV.
Mainstream panels now ship with ACR fingerprinting (automated content recognition) and account gates because your viewing data beats the hardware margin.
I want a panel. Just a panel. Something that properly drives an Apple TV 4K (HDR, Dolby Vision, Atmos passthrough via eARC, HDMI-CEC) and does nothing else.
Looking for setups that have held up long term.
anon’s guide to actually supporting privacy:
> donate to tools you use instead of just complaining they need money
> contribute code if you can, documentation if you can’t
> use private money (cryptocurrency, cash)
> tell normies about alternatives without being insufferable about it
> work for companies that aren’t surveillance machines
> push for legal protections because tech alone won’t save us
#privacy isn’t a product you buy, it’s an economy you build

LinkedIn is sadly a really good sense check for where businesses are going.
One thing I’ve noticed lately - people come up with the stupidest ideas possible, and then post long things about how it’s a great idea. They use generative AI to make the posts - generative AI will write posts and documents supporting whatever dumb shit you want.

Firefox changed its ToS recently, and it’s really bad. It’s disappointing to see Linux distros still setting Firefox as the default browser when security and privacy should be top priorities.
