How do you preserve your privacy when everything nowadays track you? When things like WhatsApp—which in some places is as obligatory as having a cellphone— and Discord (if you're like me, the few friends you have use it) track everything you do in them? Simply not using Facebook and Twitter and employing adblocking software aren't cutting it anymore.
Should one just love the bomb and focus on covering the little tracks you still can? Sometimes it just feels so insignificant.
Eventually, you will have no choice but to alienate yourself from society if you want to preserve your privacy because everything will have a wifi chip right down to the pebble on the street. It was once possible to be botnet free by avoiding cellphones and computers/laptops but now more and more things can track you.
Embrace the botnet and enjoy the convenience. The fight is lost
>When things like WhatsApp—which in some places is as obligatory as having a cellphone
Sorry I don't know a whatsapp is or does.
>discord
Use IRC ffs.
>but none of my "friends" will switch"
Neither will you apparently. You are the problem.
>just give up goy
The Almighty has never helped a lazy man. He does not help the coward. He does not help a people that cannot help itself. The principle applies here, help yourselves and Almighty God will not deny you his assistance. -- Adolf Hitler

Chat app widely known where I live. If you want to be active in society and work, it's pretty much obligatory. It's this place's Kik.
>Neither will you apparently. You are the problem.
My friends are comformists. They probably would put their bank info and any precious info in Discord without questioning it.
I don't know, man. There must be something I can do.
What is your advice on the regards of the topic?

Remember the 14 words. Participate only when it helps your people much more than it helps them. Encryption is your friend. Communicate over botnets like discord only for turning normies away from it. Read Siege.
convenience or anonymity, chose one.
if you wanted pizza, you could have it delivered and risk a stranger knowing your address, or you could go to place and pick it up yourself.
a practical sense of the worth of your privacy is needed, if you're a relative nobody then overprioritizing your privacy is just wasting your time, whereas if you're a celebrity, it isn't worth the risk, and better to spend more time making sure your information is safe.

Cucks.
It isn't about mere ''convenience''. I'm having to choose between being able to talk to friends of having all my all info being tracked everywhere. I'm asking if there's a mid way.
>Encryption is your friend
How can i learn more of what can I encrypt?
>Communicate over botnets like discord only for turning normies away from it.
Thats what I just said. It's my only way of communicating with friends. Close ones and internet friends.
