I've started watching @nprofile1q... 's new Incognito V2 course videos, and they are excellent. The pacing is snappy & professional. The explanations show an in-depth understanding of privacy and all the terms we use. I've been writing about privacy for years now and am still learning new things from this course.

There is a free option (if you scroll further down) too, but the paid version has extras, like a snazzy glossary of terms and comment boxes that Henry interacts with, that make it well worth your while!

@nprofile1q... , Can you tell me 1) if your phone is your own hardware or an existing phone that's been repurposed, and 2) if Sailfish OS is completely independent from Android or if it requires an in-between layer like Halium? Thanks!

It's wise to create a disk image of your Nextcloud server periodically, but even better to see if you can actually restore your server from a saved image.

Taking a break from digital privacy news, online engagement in discussion groups and testing new privacy tools can be a positive, healthy experience.

Disabling Google's default apps on Android can help reduce your exposure to Google's data mining system somewhat, while their open source alternatives are generally excellent.
