My privacy journey started with a YouTube video by SomeOrdinaryGamers about the Club Penguin Online doxing situation in 2020. Then, through Techlore and other YouTubers, I learned about private browsers, VPNs, password managers, Linux, FOSS, and more. What made you start?

    When I was on Quora one day I saw an advertisement for DuckDuckGo, “Google tracks you, we don’t.” I quickly began researching it and decided I should rip out as much of Google out of my life as possible.

    The ads I’ve hated so much teached me about the importance of online privacy.
