Privacy / Security is earned not promised.

Study free an easy or at least cheap internet security. A VPN, Yubikey, Tor, Tails, Hushmail, Signal, Burner, PGP email etc along with security software such as Kaspersky or Norton for your gadgets ...... secure your wifi router with an “outstanding” password like “Q#/\LoP74+?Saq!” versus “1234567890”.

Folks need to consider the more anonymous one is ....so is their software, hardware and the data on it.

Personally, I can’t wait for these phones to go away.

And port80 internet. You know, the browser garbage.

The phones are a great device, but our astronomical cellular bills have paid for an 80 billion dollar merger that works against us, and countless billions in shoddy towers, equipment and projects.

And I’m in the cellular industry, I know what I’m talking about here. Billions of dollars wasted on garbage and mistakes.

Thanks for the ping. I have a question for any and all. I would like to have a battery operated immersion blender that would be strong enough to make smoothies with frozen fruit.

I also would like to use regular c or d batteries, but AA would also be ok, as I have a solar charger as well as an electric one.

I would use it all the time now as a convenience, and it would be nice to have in case of emergencies too - could use it for icing for cakes etc.
