A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.

- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

i wish reactos worked with the android bootloader unlocking & rom installers software that some phone makers like redmi & xiaomi require for their phones.
it's also bizarre that a linux based device requires a windows system to enable customization when it's the opposite in every other arena.
it's even stranger that chinese brands are more common in requiring proprietary means for products while its gov't is so gung ho about open source that it's open sourced industries critical to future like ai & chip development.
