Greta Thunberg: The Climate Event

I’d highly recommend making time in your calendar to watch this speech.

If you use the Firefox browser – or a privacy-respecting Firefox fork, like LibreWolf (librewolf.net/) – take a look at the LibRedirect extension (libredirect.github.io/). It automatically redirects links/embeds of surveillance capitalists like Google (YouTube, etc.), Instragram, Twitter, Reddit, etc. to community-run instances that remove tracking, etc.

@aral I think what stresses me out with LibRedirect is how it interacts with NoScript - the number of new actors you trust with your data becomes very apparent. Sure, Google won't map you, but instead you're trusting a bunch of smaller actors with your data, and to not do anything malicious :/

@prosaluxemburg This is a very valid concern. Not to mention that those sites can come and go and others can take over the domains.
