  • Gave it a screenshot of OSMand, got a creepy qoute

    The image does not show any people; it is purely a navigational map highlighting a route. The time displayed on the map is 17:51:34, suggesting late afternoon or early evening. There is no additional information available about the device used to take the screenshot or the user’s intentions, making it impossible to determine their racial characteristics, ethnicity, age, economic status, or lifestyle. The emotional context of the image is neutral, as it is simply a visual representation of a traveled route.






  • I see quite a few comments trashing this article, why?

    It gives solid advice while reminding the reader that this is not perfect.

    If I was Snowden this is not enough at all, but If I was an illegal immigrant in a country full of others like me? I think this article plus the final note about past data, does actually give a very solid advice.

    I would argue that those who follow this guide, and take to heart the final notes and does something about past information (e.g move to a new address, change some habits, etc) would not be discovered in a mass deportation. Again, if you are an individual who is uniquely targeted by a government, this is not enough.

    And yeah, they missed some points and this isn’t perfect, but anyone who is serious would do more research anyway, so I actually think this a good article.

    Dude, not having root is objectively safer, and grapheneOS is security first.

    If you want a rom that gives you absolute freedom, there are those as well, but it’s not as secure.

    P.S you can root grapheneOS, it’s just not recommended or catered to and while I don’t agree with their tone and the obfuscation of it, I don’t think it matters as it just completely goes against security.
