He sees through flesh and rock. He is straining on human kind.

But aren’t there competitive corporations which are owned by rich people in China? And doesn’t chinese government extract as much information from its citizens as possible (even more than european governments) like the case in DeepSeek? It may seem to be authoritarian but I think it’s also a sign of consumption habbits extraction. Correct me if I’m wrong.

China isn’t communist, it’s capitalist. But it’s better than the USA and europe

With all that money against leftists, leftists couldn’t race head to head with the right wing in the USA. So I don’t think they are against you either.

That makes sense but I have always related them with the USA leftists as they support LGBT, woke, Palestine supporters. Just one time Microsoft supported Israel for a very short period but other than that… But what you say wasn’t something I considered. I will keep it in mind

Because they all support diversity, equity, woke etc, which are leftist movements in the USA. They advertise for positions always stating these movements. Why do you think they support the right wing?

Why are big companies like Google and Microsoft supportive for leftists if leftists in the USA want to destroy capitalism? It’s weird.

Sorry, you are right. But what I meant was it is very hard to deanonymize and monitor users of NymVPN. Tor network can be however monitored by NSA although chances are small that you will be deanonymized. And unlike Tor, NymVPN can offer 5 relays, which makes the chances that nodes can collaborate to deanonymize you to almost zero. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Why don’t you use a decentralized VPN like NymVPN? It’s impossible for the company or anyone to take logs because your traffic is routed over several nodes. It’s like Tor but a decentralized one.

The natives usually don’t comply. And when they did, there are many different quotes from them stating they got a lot poorer. When they dont comply, they are massacared.

Well, not bad by supporting Italy there and in Greece during WW2. Today people see Germany a secure place for online privacy services like cloud and e-mail servers but I don’t believe a piece in it. Germany is just a liberal capitalist country with one of the best special information services in Europe, that’s all.

You mean France, Spain and United Kingdom

Can you please elaborate on dependencies part? How to analyze them and how to know which package does exactly what in a quick way? Does one need any coding knowledge? Thank you

I have LineageOS installed on my phone. Without the app InviZible Pro from F-Droid, my phone connects to Google servers for connectivity checks, system webview and time adjustments. The disadvantage in terms of privacy of /e/OS would be the default presence of micro g, which is proprietary. In LineageOS it’s not present by default.

Sonalder explained it very well. I just want to emphasize that it’s much more private than any other vpn because its impossible for Nym to keep logs.

I also want to add to his comment that it’s like Tor network but a decentralized one. As there aren’t as many and as fast nodes as in Tor, it’s slower. Here is the owners conversation with the Youtuber The Hated One: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVtw-4Eox2E

LineageOS sends connectivity checks, time adjustment requests and system webview (chromium by default and not easy to change) data to google servers as far as I know. Are you sure it doesn’t send anything to google? On the other hand, there is an app Invizible Pro on FDroid, which is perfect to prevent such connections. Maybe you assume the user will install it?

I wish I could bring it to an expert. Do you know how to find one? Here is the file: https://paste.centos.org/view/5df16fbe Sorry for the delay

I will try it, thank you :)
