Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

As a trans person please stop. You're not helping & are being underhandedly misogynistic.

You need to stay away from feminism and enby activism entirely until you've humbled yourself and seriously sat with how problematic this take is.

You're not helping anybody with that. Least of all enbies/trans people. And not just because it makes us look bad either, though that's certainly part of it.

I'm sorry, what?

It's women-centered because it's "against patriarchy"... not because it's witchy. And they are trans & queer inclusive as well.

What is you opinion on the parents who tell their kids to "keep your head down" and "don't cause troubles" such as "being a dissident" or "going to protests"? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

Unfortunately that international pressure appears to be disintegrating before our eyes...

I don't know, it seems pretty normal to sometimes have a platonic friend or family member in my room?

I don't wanna be like "no stay out" sometimes I want advice on what to wear or a second pair of eyes to look for something.

Also, some people live in studio apartments... or have kids...

There is no fucking way I'm keeping a bedside table like that. Specifically a bedside table.

How the hell am I gonna show people my room politely with vibrators, lube, condoms, rope, spanking paddles, rope & a hitachi wand hanging out fuck all that lol

What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

I used to think so too, but last night I found this super cute and informative blog about recovering our free will online and now I'm super hyped about NNCP and mesh networks!! 🥹

Anyone know how to hide this? in c/firefox@lemmy.ml

I didn't say it was exactly the same as FF, I said it immediately improved my experience of the Internet

Auto logouts are IMHO better for society. Putting friction between users and addictive algorithms is a simple way to encourage healthier and more mindful habits. It also encourages better security education

If people have questions like this it's a good thing. It will make them aware of how much privacy they are giving up so they have to make intentional choices about how they design their digital life

Capitalists have really ruined the culture of UX by making it all about what's good for keeping people hooked & helpless rather than what's in our collective best interests

Most Americans think AI won’t improve their lives, survey says in c/technology@lemmy.world

Questions about an existing SIM card in GrapheneOS (lemmy.ml)

Hi all!

Newbie here on a privacy journey. My current objective is to create a cute little phone that limits tracking by surveillance capitalists, law enforcement, & the state.

That said, the stakes are not particularly high here. I just miss the world I grew up in & find the call of freedom enticing. So this is more of a hobby project for me to be able to put my main phone down and experience a world without tracking again.

So far I have installed GrapheneOS on my old phone. I'm absolutely in love with it and I'm 100% sold on one day even migrating my main phone to it. But thats not my main concern today.

For now, I have some questions related to SIM cards.

I understand that in order to avoid device number leaks (if that's something one cares about) it's important to not have a SIM card in the device and keep it on airplane mode.

However, years before privacy ever mattered to me I already had a SIM card and two eSIMs in this phone. And all of the advice I read talks about NEVER putting a SIM card in, but I have a hard time thinking critically about what that really means for those of us who ALREADY had one in.

If I remove that SIM card and eSIM and carry on using the phone, what are the privacy implications of such a choice?

Likewise, if I leave the SIM cards in but keep the phone on airplane mode is it really all that bad?

I assume at minimum this means that the IMEI number is stored somewhere in some cell tower logs. If the state were to seize my phone they could I suppose link the phone to things I did with my phone or accounts I used back before privacy mattered to me.

But are there other implications as well? Is this phone forever going to leak a connection to my old activity even if I remove the SIM cards, leave it on airplane mode, use a VPN and ensure it never falls into bad hands?

Thanks!
