Not many. Why? Never play defence.
You will never win solo. It is not single player. You must make them care.
How? Start here:
lmao, ToS never works. Libre software does.
WannaCry will never touch you but Microsoft does everyday.
Windows always fails to include a libre software license text file, so we never control it, they do.
You gave them your computer, so don’t moan about it now. If you want it back, you know what to do.

What does its software license tell you?
Yeah and Discord is proprietary, no thanks.
Offline app is best. Tell others to try this first.
But add a bridge bot.
No thanks, Discord is proprietary.
Check each app for a libre software license text file, do we control the app or not? Easiest way to purge 99% of scams and abuse. Then, check for an libre app to replace each online service.
- Don’t say use Lemmy. Send them Lemmy posts until they download the app.
- Don’t say use Signal. Auto-reply everywhere else. https://lemmy.world/post/21620691
Don’t say it, live it.
- Paranoid: 0% normal
- Blocking scams: 100% normal
When Google bans their account ask them, is having no email normal?
- Never defend. Always make a good attack.
- Never say privacy. Never get dragged into tech yapping. Always say control, power, scam and abuse.
- Never lead with gains. Human care most about loss. Always focus on loss.
Something like:
Watching big tech gape my inbox was never normal but, if you’re into that, I’m not judging you.
Chatting to someone else’s computer? That’s raw dogging the internet. No protection, no privacy.
Anyone there can see all your shit. Don’t think a VPN or incognito mode is magically saving you. You’re exposed.
The only solution? You must take your computing back under your control. You need your own computer and libre software.
Ollama, LibreChat and maid are a good start.
Use a libre app (Thunderbird) and turn on end-to-end encryption (OpenPGP).
Then, the only things you need from a mail provider are private sign up, account management, payments (Monero) and obviously IMAP.
Like being poor makes it okay.
It relies on a service we do not control.
