People generally don’t not “choose” freedom. We didn’t wake up one morning and say, y’know, I feel like giving away all of my personal data to the government. Telling people whom you’ve got no idea of their struggles to “be a leader” from your keyboard isn’t constructive. It’s noise at best, and condescending at worst. But you do you.
I cant make your life more free for you. You have to do it.
I cant think of every way to make your life more free. You have to invoke your own creativity.
These are choices to make, and when pressed I responded. But I only offer advice, and it is open ended at worst.
Im not telling people how to live, im merely stating that them not shooting themselves in the foot would be beneficial if they say they dont like being shot in the foot.
I like to lead by example, btw. Freedom starts within.
If youd really like to know how to progress further, think about how much money and time you have, then think about how much of each youre willing to invest in a given cause. That will tell you exactly what you can/will do about it.
I didn’t pick aside. I don’t use TikTok and I don’t care who owns it. But I live in the US, theoretically I would rather one entity spying on me than two lol
If I don’t want to be spied on by the US I would have to leave the country, which is not exactly an option. Then I would have to determine a country that does not spy on its citizens or is otherwise not spied on heavily by another country. I’d be very curious with that list looks like. I imagine it’s very small, and very undesirable.
I use a lot of digital tools to protect my privacy and have fought for digital privacy rights directly. Don’t lecture me please.
Where is this magical land you live?
Honestly I’m just getting tired of discussions where people lecture me about “just taking it laying down“ as if somehow I have the ability to end the US surveillance state or otherwise opt out of it. I have limited options, as do all of us. I am acknowledging reality, not saying I endorse it or don’t even push back where I can. These kinds of comments are flippant and annoying.
TL;DR: zero isn’t a real option today so don’t act like it is.
Thats a weird angle.
My thing is, advocating for JUST tiktok to be banned when the American companies are doing the same thing makes zero sense.
So again, why pick? Choose freedom.
Ok, I’ve chosen freedom. Now what happens
Be a leader
So no real tangible advice then, right? Just telling people on the Internet they’re not doing enough? Got it, thanks
You need someone to tell you what to do?
No, but you came in and started doing it anyways, lol. Just wanted to see if there was any substance behind your “do better” message.
I actually didnt tho. Please show me on the doll where I told anyone what to do.
I do what I do, feel free to do you.
Dis u?

All you have are vague platitudes, stop acting as though you know shit.
You acted like you had perspective and fell on your face when called out.
Go read a book lmao
Sensing lots of anger in your tone.

Does this make the surveillance disappear today? What does this mean?
It means anyone picking a “side” in the US vs Tiktok debate should reconsider their position (imo anyways)

Why not zero? Aim higher fam, people let themselves be surveilled too easily these days without any resistance

Ofc zero is an option, we just have to have the conversion to start the process
Then why are you lecturing me.
Im having a conversation
You okay bro?
