    Picking another corporation to base your language around isn’t better. Why not refer to the general privacy concepts that corporation claims to have?

      Yes, all his musings about Trump cracking down on Google aged like fine milk. Everyone who paid attention knew this though. He should keep his mouth shut about politics and do his company a favor

    What the fuck is wrong with just saying email? It’s been around for decades.

    If someone said to me “Could you crack a Linux” I would walk away slowly and avoid eye contact.

    It would be safer if we discussed.this using encryption:

      Yes. Public Forum conversations should be encrypted so the AI scrapping bots don’t analyse them

    I just say “I did a search” instead of “I googled it” nowadays, mostly because I don’t like lying.

    Would be better if this had serious suggestions. But to add a serious one, please say something like “content blocker” instead of “adblocker”; you’re not freeloading by blocking ads, you’re choosing to not connect to unwanted privacy-hostile content with your computer and internet connection, as you should.
