A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
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.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- 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
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

No. Privacy is illegal in the banking/financial system.
In the government-controlled fiat system, you are right. In Monero, you are wrong.
does your supermarket accept payments in Monero?
Your supermarket accepts payments in cash, which is better anyway.
(I say as someone who pays for certain services in Monero)
Ive spent years buying groceries with crypto. Just buy their gift cards with it
Through a giftcard, yes. I have been eating Monero since January of 2023
As it should be IMHO. Nothing is stopping you dropping cash for shit in the untracked economy which is massive but if you want to be a part of the larger system and all its benefits you need to be prepared to play by the rules that are designed by and large to protect people.
