Have you ever been afraid to speak your mind on the internet? Do you have peace of mind that you know what your electronics are doing? Is technology working for and empowering you, or has it become a tool of oppression tracking your every move and storing it on corporate/government servers to be used against you in the future?

These powerful tech companies work closely with our fascist government to surveil, track, manipulate, and scare vulnerable citizens into compliance and silence. We have been tricked into giving up all control and privacy for the sake of convenience.

This is no accident.

The state has the most sophisticated surveillance network ever known, and you are voluntarily participating in it.

The phones Americans carry in their pockets are proprietary black boxes, constantly communicating with cell towers logging your position and IMEI/IMSI tied to your real identity. They are also constantly recording the strength of wifi access points, and other devices around you, sending this back to HQ to build a map of everyone's movements. This is not even mentioning how most people are logged into a google/apple account at all times. You probably know this costs you YOUR privacy, but do you realize you are also snitching on everyone around you and contributing to this surveillance network?

Ask yourself how you feel about this? How much would freedom, privacy, and anonymity be worth to you? Many realize the situation is dire, but are preoccupied with trying to survive the next rent payment, and are do not have the knowledge necessary to resist.

Those organizing in the US (50501) overwhelmingly are using reddit and discord to plan protests. A few who know better use signal and consider this good enough, not thinking about how they are linked to a phone number. Signal is secure and private, but when your adversary is the US gov/tech corps that is not enough. We need ANONYMITY.**

Phone Numbers are incompatible with Anonymity: http://blog.nowherejezfoltodf4jiyl6r56jnzintap5vyjlia7fkirfsnfizflqd.onion/opsec/phonenumbers/index.html

"Laws" and "rights" are meaningless now. If the state deems you an enemy they have hundreds of ways to crush you into submission, throw you in prison, or worse. Things will only get worse over the coming years. The only hope we have is to maintain real anonymity

Here on Lemmy many are curious about digital privacy, but only have bits and pieces of the knowledge required. Without a solid understanding of how to use technology safely, misinformation, half truths, and FUD abound. There is a pervasive attitude that you have no choice at all, and that it is hopeless to stand up against your oppressors.

I am here to tell you this is NOT TRUE. I am here to tell you it is POSSIBLE, and WORTHWHILE.

You can reclaim technology to work for you instead of against you, but it will require effort and change.

Using Lemmy anonymously Is not too hard. You just need to register an email account in tor browser, and use that to verify a lemmy account. Be sure to ONLY access this account over Tor. The more privacy invasive the service, the more likely they will try to prevent you from doing this. Circumventing that is an advanced topic for another time.

How long until similar demands are made of others? Every day the risk grows greater and less possible to ignore. The time to wise up is now! Start learning and investing in yourself today so that you can be prepared to protect yourself and those you care about before it is too late.

In this technocracy lines are being drawn. They are wielding technology to oppress and control us, and we need to decide if we are subservient data cattle, or if we are willing to learn how to use technology to empower ourselves and resist.

The relationship between average people and technology is unacceptable. Even those with advanced "tech skills" know next to nothing about how to maintain security/privacy/anonymity against the state. It does not have to be this way.

You deserve better. The people in your life deserve better. They NEED you to educate yourself so you can help teach them. The only way we can do this is together. The time for learning is limited and the clock is ticking.

It's time to decide. Will you allow these corporations to own you, or will you rise to the challenge?

**When law enforcement subpeonas Signal for user information, all they hand over is the phone number associated with the account, and the last time they logged in. Due to the secure end to end encryption the contents of the messages are safe. No problem right? Well the cell phone number and associated metadata is more than enough for them to prosecute, imprison, and kill. Which cell towers has this phone number been around? What other numbers has it been communicating with and when? How is this cell service paid for?

It is not impossible to circumvent these issues, for instance by paying for a jmp.chat phone number with monero XMR. In this case you don't actually have the sim, but rather access it remotely over XMPP. If you do this over Tor very little can be used against you.

Ask yourself though, how many signal users actually go through these lengths? These phone numbers change law enforcement investigations from stumped, to having valuable leads and evidence. What motivations could signal have for requiring this valuable personally identifying information to be shared?

If a service requires your phone number, they are against your Anonymity http://blog.nowherejezfoltodf4jiyl6r56jnzintap5vyjlia7fkirfsnfizflqd.onion/opsec/phonenumbers/index.html

(sorry for the semi off topic rant, no signal is not the worst thing or the first problem to fix, but KYC*** phone numbers are.)

I was going to make some anonymity guides, but I needed to first address the issues and problems so I can follow up with solutions. Please give me your feedback and feel free to ask if you have any questions or requests for guides.

There are a bunch of 50501 communities all over the Fediverse, and the numbers increased substantially with the state-oriented communities hosted by 50501.chat.

In response to this I put together a combined feed for the movement, which can be seen here: https://piefed.social/f/50501

As of now, the feed combines content from 64 different Lemmy communities hosted on five different instances. Lemmy does not (yet) support these feeds, but PieFed users will be able to interact with all 50501 communities in one place.

If anyone has suggestions for communities to include in the feed, or alternatively communities they feel should not have been included, feel free to let me know in this thread or over a direct message! :)

Don't miss this amazing opportunity

Anyone else here upvoted something on Reddit and get banned? We must be doing something right.

These are not normal times. The capitalist, oligarchic system has failed to protect our planet or our freedoms. As more and more of our leaders turn collaborator, all of us must come together to fight fascism. Join us as we stand in solidarity with immigrants, for LGBTQ rights, for a free Palestine, and most of all in opposition to the "Elonreich." A better world is possible!✊

The 50501 movement -- a decentralized, nationwide call to action -- has set April 5th as a day of action. Answer the call with us.

A little inspiration from the old world.
