      \n
      Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
      \n
      In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
      \n
      ### Some Rules\n
      \n
      - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
      - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
      - Try to keep things on topic\n
      - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
      - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
      - Be nice :)\n

      A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
      ============================================================\n
      \n
      Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
      \n
      In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
      \n
      ### Some Rules\n
      \n
      - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
      - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
      - Try to keep things on topic\n
      - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
      - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
      - Be nice :)\n

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n

    +title: "Active combat against surveillance instead of passive defense"
    +url: null
    +body: """
      Examples of passive defenses against surveillance:\n
      \n
      - [Privacy Badger](https://privacybadger.org)\n
      - [uBlock Origin](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock)\n
      - Using open source Linux rather than Microsoft Windows\n
      - etc.\n
      \n
      But why not actively combat surveillance instead of passively defending against it? Examples of active combat:\n
      \n
      - [AdNauseam](https://adnauseam.io)\n
      - [ScareMail](https://bengrosser.com/projects/scaremail/)\n
      - Emacs [spook.el](https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/lisp/play/spook.el?h=emacs-29.1.90)\n
      \n
      We must poison the data of those who are violating our privacy. Let us waste their time, increase their data storage costs, and waste their processing power. Let them drown in an ocean of data. Let them search for tiny needles in huge haystacks, with no way to distinguish between needles and hay.\n
      \n
      Some ideas:\n
      \n
      - Sending fake data to Google Analytics ([How does Google Analytics prevent fake data attacks against an entity’s traffic?](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/106892/how-does-google-analytics-prevent-fake-data-attacks-against-an-entitys-traffic))\n
      - Create fake contacts lists to mislead those who are building social network graphs.\n
      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n
      \n
      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

      Examples of passive defenses against surveillance:\n

      - [Privacy Badger](https://privacybadger.org)\n

      - Using open source Linux rather than Microsoft Windows\n

      We must poison the data of those who are violating our privacy. Let us waste their time, increase their data storage costs, and waste their processing power. Let them drown in an ocean of data. Let them search for tiny needles in huge haystacks, with no way to distinguish between needles and hay.\n
      \n
      Some ideas:\n
      \n
      - Sending fake data to Google Analytics ([How does Google Analytics prevent fake data attacks against an entity’s traffic?](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/106892/how-does-google-analytics-prevent-fake-data-attacks-against-an-entitys-traffic))\n
      - Create fake contacts lists to mislead those who are building social network graphs.\n
      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n
      \n
      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n
        ### Related communities\n

        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n

      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n

      What are some other possible methods?\n

      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n

        \n
        ### Some Rules\n

        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n

    +url: null
    +body: """
      Examples of passive defenses against surveillance:\n
      \n
      - [Privacy Badger](https://privacybadger.org)\n
      - [uBlock Origin](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock)\n
      - Using open source Linux rather than Microsoft Windows\n
      - etc.\n
      \n
      But why not actively combat surveillance instead of passively defending against it? Examples of active combat:\n
      \n
      - [AdNauseam](https://adnauseam.io)\n
      - [ScareMail](https://bengrosser.com/projects/scaremail/)\n

      We must poison the data of those who are violating our privacy. Let us waste their time, increase their data storage costs, and waste their processing power. Let them drown in an ocean of data. Let them search for tiny needles in huge haystacks, with no way to distinguish between needles and hay.\n
      \n
      Some ideas:\n
      \n
      - Sending fake data to Google Analytics ([How does Google Analytics prevent fake data attacks against an entity’s traffic?](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/106892/how-does-google-analytics-prevent-fake-data-attacks-against-an-entitys-traffic))\n
      - Create fake contacts lists to mislead those who are building social network graphs.\n
      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n
      \n
      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n

      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n
      \n
      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n

    +title: "Active combat against surveillance instead of passive defense"
    +url: null
    +body: """
      Examples of passive defenses against surveillance:\n
      \n
      - [Privacy Badger](https://privacybadger.org)\n
      - [uBlock Origin](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock)\n
      - Using open source Linux rather than Microsoft Windows\n
      - etc.\n
      \n
      But why not actively combat surveillance instead of passively defending against it? Examples of active combat:\n
      \n
      - [AdNauseam](https://adnauseam.io)\n
      - [ScareMail](https://bengrosser.com/projects/scaremail/)\n
      - Emacs [spook.el](https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/lisp/play/spook.el?h=emacs-29.1.90)\n
      \n
      We must poison the data of those who are violating our privacy. Let us waste their time, increase their data storage costs, and waste their processing power. Let them drown in an ocean of data. Let them search for tiny needles in huge haystacks, with no way to distinguish between needles and hay.\n
      \n
      Some ideas:\n
      \n
      - Sending fake data to Google Analytics ([How does Google Analytics prevent fake data attacks against an entity’s traffic?](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/106892/how-does-google-analytics-prevent-fake-data-attacks-against-an-entitys-traffic))\n
      - Create fake contacts lists to mislead those who are building social network graphs.\n
      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n
      \n
      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

      Examples of passive defenses against surveillance:\n
      \n
      - [Privacy Badger](https://privacybadger.org)\n
      - [uBlock Origin](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock)\n
      - Using open source Linux rather than Microsoft Windows\n
      - etc.\n
      \n
      But why not actively combat surveillance instead of passively defending against it? Examples of active combat:\n
      \n
      - [AdNauseam](https://adnauseam.io)\n
      - [ScareMail](https://bengrosser.com/projects/scaremail/)\n
      - Emacs [spook.el](https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/lisp/play/spook.el?h=emacs-29.1.90)\n
      \n
      We must poison the data of those who are violating our privacy. Let us waste their time, increase their data storage costs, and waste their processing power. Let them drown in an ocean of data. Let them search for tiny needles in huge haystacks, with no way to distinguish between needles and hay.\n
      \n
      Some ideas:\n
      \n
      - Sending fake data to Google Analytics ([How does Google Analytics prevent fake data attacks against an entity’s traffic?](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/106892/how-does-google-analytics-prevent-fake-data-attacks-against-an-entitys-traffic))\n
      - Create fake contacts lists to mislead those who are building social network graphs.\n
      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n
      \n
      What are some other possible methods?\n
      \n
      Let us turn the tables on those who have been violating our privacy. Why do we have to be on the defense? Let us waste their resources in the same way that they are wasting ours!

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n
        ### Related communities\n

        A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
        ============================================================\n
        \n
        Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
        \n
        In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
        \n
        ### Some Rules\n
        \n
        - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
        - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
        - Try to keep things on topic\n
        - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
        - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
        - Be nice :)\n
        \n

      - Encrypt lots of worthless data, store them in the cloud or send them by email. If the encrypted data is intercepted by any nosy entity, they will have to waste storage space while waiting to be able to break the encryption.\n

      What are some other possible methods?\n

    Also if there is going to be an active combat against surveillance the first target should be the governments rather than the corporations Because the government’s have lot more resources at their hands for surveillance and it’s lot harder to avoid than the corporations at the moment

    A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.\n
    ============================================================\n
    \n
    Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.\n
    \n
    In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.\n
    \n
    ### Some Rules\n
    \n
    - Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn’t great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post\n
    - Don’t promote proprietary software\n
    - Try to keep things on topic\n
    - If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered\n
    - Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience\n
    - Be nice :)\n
    \n
