    1. I don’t know how to set one up
    2. I already have NextDNS and I can make that work everywhere I go.
    3. Having AdGuard for windows on both of my laptops and my 3 desktops and my server and my windows tablet already serves the purpose of Pihole plus a few extra things to block the bullshit in windows that PiHole can’t do as effectively
    4. Updating a Pihole periodically involves buying and configuring a whole new piece of hardware, updating to a new version of AdGuard involves running the installer and sometimes restoring from a settings file or two.

    Why two laptops and a windows tablet? One is a beefy gaming laptop, the other is a mediocre laptop that I sometimes take to wifi hotspots. The windows tablet is a different form factor, I don’t really use it much anymore

    Two desktops? One for gaming and my daily driver, the other for work.

    I’m not telling you what I do for a living.

    See here’s the thing, if the international laws that came about as a response to what the various members of the Axis forces did applied to the US…Every post WW2 president would’ve been executed for war crimes.

    Literally every one of them is guilty of war crimes as well as most of the people in those administrations

    If we convicted Trump of as many as 30 something felonies, why didn’t we convict any other president for any of the horrible things they did?

    You: buys a digital thing from an online store

    Store: takes your money right away with no waiting time

    You: Decide you don’t want it anymore, too expensive to renew

    Store: okay, you’ll get your money back in 5 to 10 business days

    People online who might try to doxx you if you say something they don’t like or win too much in a game

    The owner of a malicious website getting your IP address from visiting it by accident.

    If your internet provider or anyone else gives you the third degree about using a VPN or any other privacy-friendly alternatives to anything, just say all but the first one

    oh and be mindful of internet providers using AI to find patterns in the packets you’re sending and receiving

    I don’t know if they even have something that advanced whichever one sees it first just signals to the others “HEY! BIG FOOD! BRING IT TO NEST!” with urgency and then the others repeat the signal until all the gatherers start getting it then they all signal to go back to the nest with it.

    Fortunately, human beings have individuality and independent thought. Embrace that, use your brain to think critically about everything you see and hear. The billionaires think of us like we’re ants, cogs in a machine, brainless drones that believe everything we’re told. Don’t be the way they want us to be
