How to avoid bring a victim

Let me tell you about a future I fear.

We've sen it all before online, in social media channels and bubbles- echo chambers, bullying, and harassment. Usually it's over thoughts, ideas, ideologies, but time and time again, mankind's ability to to be cruel has shown that people can and will use whatever they can to crush those they don't agree with.


Our technology... I know all of us leave a cookie trail 5 miles wide everywhere we go online, everything we do, click, touch, type, go... and this data is stored.

All it would take is one person in power, one person with access, knowhow, and will, to make all of this information public, searchable, traceable.

Imagine your internet search history, leaked in public, made searchable, made to be pi-pointed to you. No huge deal, right? Your neighbors found about your tentacle porn fetish.

Now imagine everything yo've typed, voice-searched, every search you've made. Imagine someone doesnt like the ideologies you follow, imagine they pick you out to make an example of, over social media, your family, your employer, your customers. All of your dirty secrets exposed, and all irrefutably associated with you.

We really set ourselves up for this, right? Whether our IPs follow all of our traffic, to website trackers (ie facebook), knowing when you visit ANY one of their sites with even one traker pixel in it, to Google, knowing every swipe you mae in Gboard, every voice command you send through their servers.

I'm starting to think there's no way to avoid this, to avoid having our entire behavioral web, and therefore our "personality/rthos", being eventually leaked to all online. No matter how pure you think you are, there WILL be things that can be weaponized against you and your family.

So how do we fix it?

We have started with basic steps, for example, hidin our IPs via the use of VPNs... although we have seen this is not fool proof.

We can try to minimize use of (ie, log out of) social media sites, although they have many ways of tracking your activity even if you do this.

We can try using "secure" browsers, prevent the use of cookies, javascript, try and block trackers.... but then all youre left with is a truncated, barely usable, and non-enjoyable (by design) online experience.


I want to know how to still be able to use the web, still visit all the websites I want, still take part in the online community/discourse, without signing my privacy and potentially my lively hood away.

I am mainly an android user. I have a work computer and home computer that I will gladly be "joe average" on.

I want to know how to best use my phone and apps to have a secure and non-exploitable online experience.

Something tells me that even if I signed out of all accounts, out of all apps and services, just by using Android, Google would still know most things I say and do....

ideas are welcomed.

nice blog

Google runs your phone bro. Until you have created your system from the live-usb up, you do not know how your system works.

If we can't truly escape the danger, is there a way to mitigate the damage done or trail left behind, while still being able to use high performance apps like chrome or gboard

No one uses google's botnets here. Go back to >>>/reddit/

this is dumb and already false
me before I got a seedbox for pirating:
>letter from ISP threatening to cut off service for pirating
>I know I'm pirating
>they know I'm pirating
>call them to turn service back on
>"sorry I have no idea, someone must have hacked my wifi or I had a virus that was making me visit those sites"
plausible deniability
unless someone has video camera on you while you watch bbc gay porn really no one can prove it they can just accuse/imply/suggest it's true
anyone can make up any of that with a "papertrail" already without needing any 21st century technology

Wow what a fucken fag.

This exists, it's called nsa. Sorry to burst your bubble, you weren't the first to coin up with this

>AnySoftKeyboard
does it have completion feature (dictionary and often used words) like gboard?

I need this for reasons

>that format
>''tentacle porn''

Are you new, or where did you copy paste that from? That are far, fare worse and more shameful fetishes out there, which a lot of people here seem to have. Tentacle porn is one of the most vanilla shit out there nowadays.

No one here on Jow Forums uses ''voice searches'', or Google botnets, and people attempt to minimize the data collected. It's not that hard. And besides; read the fucking sticky.

Be a good goy and (((they))) won't care about you :^)

You ever read googles whitepaper on infrastructure security? To hack Google would take a fucking monumental amount of effort, im not sure anyone outside of maybe state-sponsered groups with infinite money could even get close to cracking into their network.

Also the solution is simple, don't use the internet, or stop caring. If you think 'stop caring' is unfair to say then fine, just stop using it then. No one is forcing you to.

Simple keep those thoughts in your mind and out of the phone

I apologize for the Reddit spacing, I thought it made it more readable on my mobile phone. In addition I know that technical porn was a very mild 1 to pick in the grand scheme of things.

I guess I'm not worried about specific issues being leaked, just a general idea that with the help of only one sympathizer on the inside, massive amounts of personal information could be out in the public domain, which would very likely be used by political radicals or those who have any ideological disagreements, and a wish to punish others, to Blackmail come harass, otherwise hold everyday people as hostages

so what if people discover i'm a transformation furfag fetishist with bisexual tendancies leaning towards heterosexual with a knack for fucking aliens and tentacles? Who likes to call niggers niggers and chinks chinks?
Worst that'll happen is my future children will know i'm a wierd dude.

This.
I mean our online personas ain't that different from irl avatars or visa versa
I put less weirdness out on the net than I do around frens and family anyway because nobody can be fucked archiving anything/everything I do
Digital footprints are different but if the net knows I love oppai thick brapesses then so be it

seriously this,
the worst that has happened to people who have been doxxed is they looked stupid. No one cares/is-autistic-enough to doument everything you do or bother to do something about it.

I had the opposite effect doxxed improved my life and others doxxed by proxy.
Weird how normies crave surface level privacy yet give machine learning access to everything including their nudes

Normies like everyone want privacy, but they also want convenience and are too stupid to see the price for convenience.

Ironic since I don't even see homeless people with no phones these days

>tfw know what that homeless man down the street faps to

Sadly if we want privacy we have to leave the phones at home and go for a walk where there is no reception gps satellite and any other persons
Luckily people go missing here all the time its comfy wolf Creek tier

>Sadly if we want privacy we have to leave the phones at home
I'd prefer that, makes the experiences more personal and removes distraction.
>Luckily people go missing here all the time
Really? When?
>its comfy wolf Creek tier
what did he mean by this?

Ironic you talk about revealing who you are on the internet as you reveal you're a redditard in your posts
