Welcome! This is a community for all those who are interested in protecting their privacy.

PS: Don't be a smartass and try to game the system, we'll know if you're breaking the rules when we see it!

Be civil and no prejudice
Don't promote big-tech software
No apathy and defeatism for privacy (i.e. "They already have my data, why bother?")
No reposting of news that was already posted
No crypto, blockchain, NFTs
No Xitter links (if absolutely necessary, use xcancel)

Some of these are only vaguely related, but great communities.

So, its all done by the user client? Meaning: If you check the source code, and compiled it yourself, it's safe? Even against a malicious server?
