    dess you recommend protonvpn but like… protonmail takes money from gives money to CIA-backed orgs & talks about “freeing” hong kong…

    also what about git hosting? i see this is on github pages (which is mad convenient, no doubt) but is there a hosting provider you recommend?

      ProtonMail is a commonly acceptable email provider, and for normies it might be good to use. That said, it does a lot of privacy posing and certainly does not make you immune to 14 Eyes spooks as the email header is unencrypted on transit, and you cannot use your own PGP keys properly.

      P.S. People who believe UK-USA funded HK insurrection was a protest are scared of being cancelled for criticising mainstream propaganda and/or keep their mouths shut about the past 20 years of MEA stuff. I can see this from India, though I get called “a certain party” shill for it.

    I might be late to the party, but I think I can point out some crucial things here.

    They recommend a billion other bad things, like most VPNs that either track you by lying about policies, or have been hacked in the past. Privacy may be a gradient, but it is not a partial or full thing.

    I was apparently silenced on r/privacytoolsio when I enquired about this page deployment: https://old.reddit.com/r/privacytoolsIO/comments/frz365/privacytools_delists_the_great_cloudwall/fm08anu/?context=10000

    Digdeeper, a friend of mine lists more things. https://digdeeper.neocities.org/ghost/fake_initiatives.html#ptio

    I do not know why I typed all this. Nonetheless maybe it can help.
