I have been watching him on YouTube. He calls himself the internet privacy guy, and shares some good and some bad knowledge.

To me he is right in a lot things, especially regarding email and degoogled phones, web browsers I guess too.

I do NOT agree with his teachings that;

  • Windows can be fine when modified (which what he shows in a video are not advanced modifications).
  • VPNs being good for your privacy.
  • I also do not see the point in giving misinformation by browsing opposite news media to your political beliefs…
  • Its fine to install proprietary apps on degoogled phones because they have no identity

Maybe I have misunderstand some of his points. What do you think about his teachings?

    Yeah, he can be a stubborn dumbass. The only way to use Windows safely is how ExplainingComputers guy (excellent youtube channel btw) uses Windows 7 because he insists in using some ancient version of some ancient video editor - completely offline.
