A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

What's special about Colorado?
CA isn't the only state with GDPR like privacy laws.
California, Virginia, Connecticut, Colorado, Utah, Iowa, Indiana, Tennessee, Oregon, Montana, and Texas.
@random65837 @possiblylinux127 wait so my state has privacy laws?
If you're in one of those, yes. There's tons of websites that list what they are and compare them against others, but basically all of them (that I've seen) have all the basics like not sharing your info without consent, right to data deletion, how they can share your data when they do etc.
