All govs want to protect or further their personal interests: Monopolies of violence, power, and intelligence. The citizens be damned.
The essay gives some. Also look into Session Messenger.
people like you will actually wait until the very day that such a thing happens, THEN you will complain. How sad.
There’s nothing you can really do about it. Lemmy should encourage as much privacy as possible, and it’s plain to see that there is work to be done in that realm, however, you should always protect yourself from the servers you connect to and store data on, regardless of whether it’s oriented to privacy or otherwise.
Using VPN or TOR, not saying anything that could identify you, making multiple accounts, things like this.
Nice. Hope to see some public instances and eventually integration with those redirect extensions.

To be sure, your messages won’t be read from the server, but that’s not the point. There’s way more going on.
The evidence is all there. It’s ironic that the negative association of the word “conspiracy” was actually pushed by the CIA and their cohorts, and is used on other words too, to cause your mind to instantly recoil is disassociate yourself from it.
Just try it. Say “I’m a conspiracy theorist” out loud in front of people, and felt the fear instantly take over as you try to mentally remove yourself from it. That’s called brainwashing.
But people like you do their bidding and perpetuate the weaponization of “evil” sounding words.
Really loving how a CEO’s political views somehow fucking matter the security of a browser lmao. God I fucking hate this generation
