Love the fact that even when committing to the bit about being anti-privacy they still know the internet is functionally unusable without an adblocker
Also I’m about to say something ignorant as hell but: Isn’t a Browser the same thing as a Search Engine?
Nope, Browser is the tool, the software to reach internet. Like a phone. Search Engine is more like the phone book of URL reference. And you use it with keywords
The browser is the software to use the internet and a search engine essentially scans the entire accessible web for the words you type in to it and shows you where they are.
Browsers: google chrome, firefox, Microsoft edge, safari
Search engines: google search, Bing, duckduckgo, ecosia, startpage
Browser is an app on your computer
Search engines are apps on other people’s computers that you access via a website
OS: chromeOS
Phone: stock xiaomi 10
Browser: internet explorer (VM)
Search engine: baidu results served through ask jeeves
Location: Constantly updated via API to Facebook
Cookies: batch downloaded
Send optional data to Microsoft: printed and mailed
You print and mail your data? You could really cut out a step by getting their fax number.
Make sure to page them first so they know to go pick it up.
No, it clearly says Anonymous
OS: Five different Linux distributions and a BSD
Phone: iPhone (hardened; trackers blocked w. NextDNS)
Browser: Mullvad
Search engine: Self-hosted SearXNG
Location: Only for mapping software
Cookies: Notices blocked by uBO, cleared on restart
Send optional data to Microsoft: Who?
nah that’s if you made a linux distro
how can you even harden a proprietary walled garden
There are ways. Privacy Guides has a page on it. I also use NextDNS, which has a blocklist for iDevices, so Apple can’t track me (afaik).
I’d rather have an Android, though. Either DivestOS or /e/. I’m just waiting for my iPhone to burn out first.
Bitches love a good BSD
This is a bait to collect technical data from privacy-oriented users
Look, they just list all their specs!

Zuck: Yeah so if you ever need info about anyone at Harvard
Zuck: Just ask.
Zuck: I have over 4,000 emails, pictures, addresses, SNS
[Redacted Friend’s Name]: What? How’d you manage that one?
Zuck: People just submitted it.
Zuck: I don’t know why.
Zuck: They “trust me”
Zuck: Dumb fucks.
Is that the guy that has nothing to hide? Who’s whining about rising subscription prices in times of lesser quality in movies and tv shows? Who’s whining about not being able to get a raise because “we can’t afford to give everyone raises in this economy”? Who’s whining because insurances are so expensive and never pay up? Who has given up both control over his own information and control over where to get his knowledge from? Who can no longer own media, or cars, or appliances without paying a monthly subscription that “this time for sure not getting worse over time”?
Who has given up his freedom?

Browser: Firefox (librewolf when bored)
Search engine: 5 instances of searxng and DuckDuckGo sometimes
Location: My chair
Cookies: I still don’t care about cookies
Send optional data to Microsoft: Who?
Why 5 instances of Searxng? Do you get very different results with each? I pretty much always use the same one…
Just for when one is down or is blocked by a search engine. Happens sometimes and I have 5 bookmarked
Are you privacy oriented or are you a mark who doesn’t realize what their time is worth? Post your absurd setups here so I can expand my database.
Yes.
The average user?
