You mention your intense, close connections are with your immediate family. Do you think your method would still work for you if you didn't like your family and were single? Unfortunately, that happens to many lonely males.

Your comment was an interesting read, though. I never before got into the mind of someone who prefers the "feral pack" over individual, more intense connections, and your description worked well with that.

Best of luck to you and also to your daughters and wife.

I understand you don't mean this in bad faith and are just trying to protect the internet from slop.

I just want to say that there is a human behind all of these articles. My intent is not to "spam," but to share what I think are the best practices for better privacy and security. I hope I am helping some people, at least.

Being named John Smith is such an underappreciated superpower.

The fact that you shouldn't use your real info online is clear to many. That being said, is it better to leave the fields empty, call yourself "anon," or create an imaginary online persona with inaccurate data to throw OSINT investigators off?

This was a super interesting read, and it highlights exactly the strength of cryptocurrencies. They turn game theory in their favor, so egoistic players (I don't mean this in an offensive tone) contribute to making it stronger and safer for everyone else.

Thank you for sharing!

I agree. For now you can buy a used Pixel to avoid giving Google money directly. In a year, you may have more options.

> At MWC 2026, Motorola announced a formal partnership with the GrapheneOS Foundation and said the two groups will work on future devices engineered for GrapheneOS compatibility.

> The official announcement was careful on timing, but follow-up reporting points to the first compatible Motorola flagships arriving in 2027, not on current devices.

> If that happens, GrapheneOS stops being only a Pixel answer.
