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 :)

If you are going to spend it on mundane and legal stuff and assuming you live in mostly free country use a trustworthy exchange even if it requires KYC and spend it normally.
Keep in mind once you buy monero even from a KYC exchange they can't track it afterwards. And this will be the safest option no real risk of getting scammed or stabbed.
If you are thinking about grey area then keep in mind that the moment something touches real world no matter whether you were using Tor, I2P or something else. It can be traced back to you. And if you are a worthwhile target LEA will spend resources to track you down.
There are ways to avoid that like using local monero and all but keep in mind those also involve different set of risks.

Do your homework and don't get scammed or stabbed.
