    As long as it applies to the normalplebian things like WhatsApp, I’m not really concerned nor surprised.

    It is up to us to protect themselves and it has been since the wake of malicious ads that track your every click. It’s gotten so bad that you’d have to be insane to not use uBlock Origin.

    Now it’s time to find another means of communication. So many privacy oriented open source apps have come out and all that you need to do is install one and tell your friends… such as SimpleX Chat and Session Messenger.

    Don’t sleep on your OPSEC, unless you have a reason to. :)

      If you don’t want to interact with “normalplebians”, I suppose that’s one way of looking at it.
