It's clear that the government(s) haven't had people's interest for quite a while now. It's nice for us to vote and protest but we need to take things into our own hands as those forms have yielded little results.
We need to build things and use software that are privacy first.
Such as:
DuckDuckGo
Firefox
Signal (actually secure messaging unlike whatsApp)
Linux OS
TOR
Librem 5, is a great open sourced secure phone example
What are some additional things we should be building or looking to build?
Political and moral aspects aside - the sooner we can start reasonably and effectively counteracting this stuff (if only on an individual basis, to start) - the better.
BTW the sister comment to this one also seems helpful:
Thanks for sharing. First I've heard of this company. It's definitely an interesting position as they look to be providing the browser (viewer) as well as the ad platform. It's unclear if they are hiding/replacing website ads with their own and how the websites are getting their revenue otherwise.
