@thenewoil On your blog post:
1) Why is `?pk_campaign=rss-feed` is suffixed to the post's URL when I use my RSS reader (Newsboat, but maybe others too)? I haven't seen this before.
2) In the paragraph about the PineTime watch, it says "weirdly not content" when I think it should say "weirdly not *with* content".
3) Do you know if DivestOS (https://divestos.org/) is available for your LineageOS device? It's a soft fork of LineageOS with some security improvements.

So, adult actors care about privacy, since privacy dictates who is the audience that sees them naked and control when this happens.
In comparison, a nudist is likely to truly have no care about privacy while naked, especially if their webcam gets hacked when not in use.
@thenewoil Not sure if this idea could be expanded upon later in another time & place, but most reasons for privacy have been primarily & rather narrowly personal, i.e., how it affects you directly. More interpersonal or social reasons why privacy is good hasn't been discussed widely (though this might also turn away those that are staunchly against any form of collectivism).
This article from late 2019 was the first time I saw privacy presented as a collective issue: https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/2019/10/privacy-collective-concern

Mass-produced, off-the-shelf solutionism is primarily good at... making mass-produced items at supermarkets.
We shouldn't ignore smaller, more personal and tailored solutions.
@thenewoil Oh, I didn't test it.
After testing, I didn't have too much success with the RSS feed for u/CTemplar-Official: https://www.reddit.com/user/CTemplar-Official/.rss
This RSS feed does catch official r/CTemplar announcements, but also any other comment (which includes the trivial replies of CTemplar stating "DM'd!" after sending invite codes).
@thenewoil 1) I was pointing out how your observation of CTemplar's signup process wasn't unique to CTemplar.
(I'm not sure if Proton Tech fixed that, though you could be more current than me. Last time I tried to make a fresh PM account was about 1-2 years ago, so Proton night've changed... or not? Proton has really slow development speed, such as setting up its Debian repo and bringing WireGuard to ProtonVPN.)
@thenewoil 2 other comments:
1) ProtonMail also has the same "redirect to clearnet during signup" issue with 1 additional generally non-private verification method (SMS text message, e-mail verification, or donation method excluding Monero) instead of an invite request.
2) I would specify the number when speaking of the 5(, 9, or 14) Eyes to be precise. In this case, CTemplar is outside of the 14 Eyes's jurisdiction.
