Same as good old Windows 2000 without all the crap and spyware: linuxmint.com
Linux was already a decent alternative 20 years ago.
The data windows collect about you goes to a company founded by someone who is in the epstein files

It really depended on what you were doing, and how comfortable you were in the terminal. Even using Ubuntu you still had some terminal use required, and for gaming it just was not there yet at all. It’s definitely been a viable alternative for standard users for at least 7 years, and gaming got good about 5 years ago.

Set up a pi-hole, cast all requests going to those domains down into tartarus. Then we can go after the data centers.

Run Linux on your desktop. Unless you NEED Adobe or Fortnight, in which case, you deserve to be spied on.

Nobody deserves to be spied on. Get a grip.

if you set up a pi-hole you aren’t sending any data to Microsoft because you are using Linux though… unless you are talking about server in which there are devices running Windows…

You can totally set it up so that pi-hole is your dhcp/dns server and it will catch any device on your network, even phones and windows machines. I block 60% of the shit coming out of my network.

Could you block any outgoing from any windows machine without knowing it’s IP?

I’m not sure. Maybe. It would depend if all clients connected automatically use the default profile or if they have to be added as a client. I haven’t looked into that actually.

Why do you think they targeted him?
Before Epstein the ring was run by Maxwell’s dad for the Israeli government, Epstein just inherited it.
There’s a reason Israel is the country everyone turns to for surveillance, they’re blackmailing the people making the tech.
Like, it’s easy to get hung up on the raping of children, but the real sick shit is what they were blackmailing them to do so the evidence wouldn’t get released. What do you think these people wouldn’t agree to just to keep the lid on what’s in the files?

We need to get it over with and burn it the fuck down. You can’t unspoil this 30 year old milk.

It blows my mind people in USA don’t already know everything is corrupted and has been corrupted and that they are just pawns in bigger people’s games.
