it's not about trust but "hiding in a group of queries"

yea for some reason (money?) the agency thought that having ppl install one (or more) app (with sdk-trackers) is more disaster proof and privacy preserving than just sending a sms... with such friends, who needs enemies?

ice-scooters are the most antisocial vehicle available. they're loud as hell, stinky, smokey _and_ slow, especially the two-cyle engine type. imo loud motorcyles are kind of 'recreational vehicle' and should be banned.

thats brave! make sure you have some decent AQM (qos) like cake or fq_codel. isp-gear probably has not. IQRouter was one of the first but there are others https://www.stoplagging.com/
