Pedes, Dozens of emails stored on my Google account regarding COVID stats, data, etc were wiped from my account yesterday. Lucky for me I have backups on my server, but the shenanigans are very real.

i have an unlisted video of a workout machine providing real time data to a bunch of sensors, and by chance one looks similar to covid graphs. it got demonetized. their algorithms are probably as complex as "orang man bad"

Switch to protonmail. I did. I bought my own domain and have a custom email address but you don't need to go that far, just dump gmail. I switched to Brave browser too.

I would highly recommend moving your stuff to protonmail. If james O’keefe uses it its safe enough for you. (was developed for CERN and os mathematically uncrackable even for them)

Yep. Nothing at this point would surprise me. Anything I want to keep in terms of emails, I type the info into a word doc (no copy paste)Label it based on my own idiosyncratic system and end of night the whole damned computer is disconnected from the internet entirely and backed up to a physical drive.

It won't stop anyone who is really determined, I am sure, but it makes me feel better anyway.

I already know there is stuff you can't share via messenger, via text on my android phone or via chat on reddit. I suspect things will get much worse very shortly.

Alexa turns on when I use the word covid or election. But the damned thing can’t figure out how to turn down the volume on the tv?
