You don't have any fucking privacy on this shithole world
that's some Sup Forums-tier pseudo article trying to convince you not to use a VPN, just repeating "don't do it, they're evil!"
Brody Lewis
Only idiots think they have any privacy on any thing >muh windows 7 placebo >muh linux placebo >i-im safe on firefox! >i have a vpn! >they cant track my phone if it doesnt have apps! >i hear systemmd is bad! for privacy! >muh bios! come on fuck off honestly
You are literally the exact same type of people who mindlessly eat up whatever shit product is spewed out with the buzzwords they like
just replace "simplicity" with "privacy" in most of this shit adds
Im so done with all this
im so done with all you genuinely fuck off and stop pretending you know fucking anything
Jonathan Wright
ok, im interested, explain yourself why we should give up.
Ethan Gomez
Because Agent FUD has to make a living, too.

Keep sensitive data on offline hardware, financial dealing on live is, don't look for kiddie porn. Works for me.
Oliver Thompson
Is...meant OS
Jacob Sanders
t. doesn't know what 'ARM' means
Colton Perry
Explain then.
Caleb Thomas
You can uninstall all of that and have it still work. Those are just for some wlan and BT adapter firmware blobs which you don't need to have installed (can buy no firmware ones).
Gavin Barnes
But forgot to add the RPi requires nonfree boot firmware anyway (on /boot) t. Allwinner A10 and A20 are a great example of fully freely booting and mainlined ARM hardware (cubieboard etc), and some of the Orange Pi:s are also supported too I think though they use newer chips
Anthony Johnson
The joepie91 text is assuming you're a fucking retard that uses vpn products from another provider. Just rent a lowend vps and run openvpn and route all logs to /dev/null.
Brody Parker
I try to follow most of these rules but since I have to interact with people who won't, I can't always follow these rules.

Gabriel Watson
why did they stop making that cute little mips netbook that rms used? Do they make similar ones with all winner?
Jayden Anderson
It's like a mosque in here What the fuck are you shitskins hiding from?
Elijah Clark
Vpn can be usefull to go on sites that are blocked and if you wan't to buy some cristal meth on the deep web you don't want the police knowing who you are

The systemd problem has nothing to do with privacy. People dislike systemd for its design, there's literally nothing botnet-ish about systemd. It's in fact, GPL licensed free software.
Henry King
u can't get privacy without security, besides it's design systemd is just like a rootkit. Flash plugin tier security at init level kek
