Amputation isn’t the way, misleading is. They receive your data, but wrong data, there are always several possibilities to blur your profile by apps and also by your activity.

No, but anyway it’s not correct that GPS function only works in one direction- without GPS, location is made with triangulation fron Cell Towers, which give an aprox locatiob. With GPS on they can find you with a precision of few meters. Not possible if GPS works only in one direction and also not slow, if not, an navigation app wouldn’t work.

Columo never discovered what is nowadays the USA, he discovered Santo Domingo - Dominican Republic. They have a Colombo Statue with all the reasons.

The first people in the Amerikas are Mongols over the Bering Strait and people from Indonesia, later Wikingos, maybe also Chinese people, all long time before Colombo.

Yes, this what the people think, a Smartphone is always locatable ⨦50m, except you switch it off

Except when you buy something in Amazon. Your can see your home also for sure in Google Street View, same as you are even in YT and webs with open life cams

Surveillance is big business for big corps, they put it even in your home and your pocket (Alexa, Siri, GPS, smart TV, smartwatches, smartphones, credit cards, discounter apps…). Only leaving your home, going to the shop, in every city you are at least in half a dozend cams. Privacy nowadays is an illusion.

LibreOffice is used since years in Spain in companies and administrations

Pirating Adobe and MS products is a practice of Nerds which thought they were hackers, since the existence of alternatives which make useless the piracy of this products.

Valid

Only cheap cables end up this way, other you can easy reforce or fix with these and a lighter forever. Sets of these in every DIY shop/mall for a few bucks.

Well, there is no lack of good OpenSource Office suites out there, most made in Europe, LibreOffice, Calligra, OnlyOffice, CryptPad, Euro-Office, ZetaOffice. Collabora Office, Murena Workspace…

This is their Homepage, there you find all info. The other I posted was the Page for the workspace. Murena is a whole infrastructure of services, hard- and software. all privacy centred, green energy, collaborations from third party in Murena are NextCloud (Germany), for the Cloud service and FairPhone (Netherland). All services are OpenSource, nothing shady in it.

Murena (Mail, Cloud, Workspace, Vault, Galery, Office suite, Tasks, Calendar, Notes, Phones (FairPhone), e/OS, e/Os for kids), OpenSource, encrypted, made in the EU (France)

Always did.

You can read the technical data in the homepage or in Github, AFAIK an forked YT API (Local API), you can also use the Invidious API, like FreeTube, if you want in the provider settings.

Yes, sadly, but only small parts. Nowadays there are lot of FOSS which are made with the help of AI. But there are still differences between “with the help of” and entirely Vibe coded with a prompt, here not the case. It’s in Beta and in active developement.

But it isn’t based on Invideous, which fails too often to load the Video, because YT actively block it. This client use another system and apart I put the SMplayer as extern Player.

Nobody say it. When you have one which fits your needs, there isn’t any reason to switch.

As said, ad block, sponsor block, encrypted, suscription import, download, no fingerprint …all what you want, see features, FOSS.

You can’t fight against capitalism with violence, this cause only more violence and suffering. Because the elite has all the force and weapons, apart to turn with it the oligarchs in martyrs, justifying more oppression. You can use votes, demonstrations, strikes. boycotts, sabotage. education and intelligence to fight the system, using it’s flaws against it.
