  • IMO, your suggestion assumes that today’s government and tomorrow’s government will have the same ideals and viewpoints on pornography, and not for 1-2 administrations, but indefinitely. Being able to reverse engineer someone via metadata is possible as is, and likely will become even more finetuned as we AI evolves.

    As an American, there are plenty of examples under the current administration where data shared in confidence by undocumented immigrants are now being used to target them for deportation.

    It’s kind of like sharing data with a company indefinitely because of their current ToS, which is just a snapshot in time. Today’s “helpful” approach towards data collection becomes a key part of surveillance in tomorrow’s world.




  • Re: gadgetbridge, my current model I purchased because it was available through them. $100 and great reviews online. Check out the Amazfit Active 2 if you haven’t pulled the trigger already. Alternatively, check out reviews from ‘The Quantified Scientist’ on YouTube if you really care about GPS/Sleep tracking and want to see how models stack up.






  • Any other tips for the VM and/or GrapheneOS compatibility? Ie: did you use a different profile? I run Debian throughout my house as is, but plan on integrating the VM for better integration but was a little hesitant to be an early adopter due to the potential nuances. (lemme know if you have a blog/gist/etc covering it too)
