ipv6 has any impact on privacy? (VPNs aside) my ipv4 changes every 24 hours, what if my ISP tries to pin a fixed ipv6 on me since they are "unlimited"? I hope I can also stay under NAT, I don't understand the concept perfectl

The point was about not being spied on, so not using Windows in the first place. They think dual boot could be used to minimize Windows usage, when absolutely required.

People don't want to feel dumb (or don't want to learn too much Computers so they aren't Nerds) so they find excuses and don't want to use anything "complicated". And good people don't want to abuse your t

I did and that reply is based on me not believing a few "coders" will make year of the Linux desktop ever happen. So if you need Linux: it won't be viable alone in the near future (I'm talking about Linux offering everyt

Can you login to the store without linking your entire computer to that email?

My mind is telling me no. But my body, my body's telling me yes. The lock-in provided by not using a custom domain is very convenient.

You either trust them or not. I believe most customers wouldn't even know what a domain is, but still need it. It's kinda ironic that you want control, privacy and security but give away control of your domain to a 3rd-party. I ge

I pay fastmail for a side business account but I've been thinking about buying a Google Domains "account" for personal use just so I can use a custom domain for free on Gmail. Identity theft is the sole reason I don't tr
