If you live in any 🇪🇺 country you should for “no special reason” start becoming comfortable with protocols like:
• Meshtastic / LoRa mesh (for off-grid short text, but always honor EU duty cycles & power limits)
• Wi-Fi Direct / Bluetooth offline chat apps (e.g. Briar, local mesh / mesh chat)
• Shadowsocks / V2Ray / obfuscation proxies etc
• Basic VPN stuff not forgetting to look up services that don’t ask you for any of your data for purchase and accept untraceable cryptos
Also maybe explore metadata-minimal messengers like Signal or even other projects that do not fall into this umbrella but are still privacy first like Matrix
And for extra resilience: learn about community mesh / wireless networks (e.g. Guifi in Spain, Ninux in Italy) and off-grid internet options (satellite, line-of-sight links)
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, master basic ops-security: use separate devices, accounts, phone numbers; learn how you could compartmentalize EVERYTHING
just read about how modern communication works and how someone, perhaps even a private or public entity, could spy on you
again, just for fun, no particular reason 🤩
Back in the early 2000's I grew up with a lot of internet safety awareness initiatives: from tv ads aimed at kids, policemen giving lectures at school, kids festivals with fun games about what NOT to do on the internet, and it was very effective as it was stomped in my head (1/2)
Yesterday, ARISS-USA filed a petition to the FCC to deny AST & Science’s application to operate in the 430-440 MHz spectrum.
