I really want to get behind the Rebel Tech Alliance, but I'm having trouble with the insulting attitude the person behind it has towards the exact people the project is aimed to help.
He says "normies can't handle... KeePass".

https://4d2.social/@CryogenicNighthawk/115745243576131042I find that attitude utterly condescending. So while I fully support the idea of withholding your personal information from companies who sell it to anyone who is willing to pay, I can't say this group deserves people's attention at this time. So, yes, do their checklists if you want to have more private service providers. But no, don't bother becoming a member. Or do, I'm not the boss of you. 😝
