    Ubuntu is corporate whoremonger. Don’t use it, unless you’re a corporate whore.

    Don’t misunderatand me. I think that makes it a good and useful thing to add to the mix right now. If you don’t understand why, then find something else. I ain’t gonna explain shit about that. It’a obvious, unless you’re ignorant or a corporate whore.

    Learn it. VM it. If you can’t get that far, build a system, that spies on your own network and censors EVERYTHING on its way out jamming until observation that you confirm that it ain’t the exact same shit you’re doing. Thus, spy. It don’t matter why we don’y play Q’s that ain’t Q’s. Do it because it’s only yours if you actually do so.

    Even if you think you don’t have windoze doesn’t mean you don’t have the same backdoor in your hardware. Until we get an effective and working RISC-V and any such open hardware, you MUST do this or else.

    IDGAF about any “I don’t have to hide because…” because that’s not a Question. Either love, live, and learn or stop pretending to speak to me. IDGAF if you’re a bot or just repeating one, zucker.
