ransomware hit all windows, it is vulnerable and essentially a cloud operating system, where any TLA can get into any windows system trivially.

macOS has gone downhill and is not much different now, I have seen some things that demonstrate it is not secure.

Ubuntu Linux comes from an org called canonical, like mozilla, and frankly it is very likely backdoored as well. The more corporate the development team is, the more easily it is infiltrated with spooks. Same thing at things like the wikipedia foundation. It is endemic in our society, that even the "non profit" orgs appear all squeaky clean, but that is a ruse. Almost all non-profits are tightly controlled by the same corporate forces, on their boards, making hiring decisions.

Then there is systemD from red hat, many including myself argue that systemD makes the system no longer linux as it is a fundamental change in philosophy and function. This is a giant security nightmare as it is difficult to audit and has far reaching access to the system. And with processors, especially "intel" having known mini-computers(potentially with wifi...) built in, it is a nightmare.

Qubes, Tails, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Devuan, are some possible real alternatives, but using any of these requires real learning, real knowledge, and selecting specific hardware. Which is another aspect, so many devels who could have potentially audited systemd are so annoyed by that prospect, they left the entire platform, so a double whammy against security. Using ubunto or fedora is NOT a privacy solution, although it is an improvement and often the only option some people will have.

So we are running headfirst into an empty swimming pool of total top down control and domination of everything digital, lead by people like bill gates, who frankly act like they have a brain slug as they push their freaky agenda, overlooking all of these drastic anti-privacy changes, and use their money not to fund independent auditing and security improvement, but journalistic organizations so they can quash any story.

Then people like myself who have real experience with this stuff,

a. sound like we are from neptune when we talk to normies

and

b. go broke because every employer is looking for easy answers, one stop shops like apple and microsoft, and "the cloud"(azure hq now actually run out of israel and executives are actual spies).

While encryption itself gradually gets declared illegal, wifi signals are used like radar to 3d image the room you are sitting in right now, and it is impossible to get anyone to even sit at a dinner table without an unauditable unsecurable tracking/listening -computer tower condensed into a tiny box-.

All of these things are demonstrated then memory holed, and somehow, there are all of a sudden way more intelligent people willing to write corrupt code than there are intelligent people remaining to work for the public interest. And those that are, like myself, (if i toot my own horn a little bit), get stalked and are essentially thought criminals. People like cory doctorow, btw, look like they care but are likely comprimised, and there are honeypot "hacker" entities like "ecohackerfarm.org" that lure people into entrapment operations with undercover police.

Underneath all of this is the conflict with china, where all of our devices shipped to and from there are part of a real covert information war, where EVEN IF, you create a private tech stack, both countries would attack it immediately because it would enable one or the others agents to use it inside their borders. I will never trust a product out of china, or israel, in this lifetime, but there are some americans and europeans remaining who are not co-opted. In my opinion, but they are going to be under attack like I am, and for us to organize or have meetings without direct interference, is nearly impossible. The public itself is being eliminated, there is only a two tier system now, those within the state security/defense/offense apparaturs, and cows. And the cows children are vulnerable to epstein because of this also.

It is a very very bad situation. I have done all I can to prevent this, but it is putting me in danger. And once you are being stalked, who wants to be your friend? Either you are delusional or, you are being stalked and that is likely to be contagious.

If you have the brains to appreciate this, contribute to my work(btc at my site) or people like me will cease to exist, sooner rather than later.
