The best way to reclaim your privacy is to own the infrastructure.

I migrated my email to a hardened FreeBSD setup. Encrypted at rest via ZFS, isolated via Jails, and owned by me. Not a data-mining giant.

If you want to build your own communication hub, here is the blueprint:

Già da qualche tempo, vi dicevo, sto cercando di staccarmi dalle tecnogie delle grandi multinazionali che stanno sempre più monopolizzando la tecnologia (anzi, potremmo dire oligarchizzando).

Ci sono da sempre ottimi motivi per farlo, ma gli eventi dell'anno scorso e di primi giorni del 2026 mi hanno spinto ad accelerare. Se prima era "solo" una questione di principi di liberta informatica e sovranità sui propri dati, ora ci so o motivi ben più forti: gli Stati Uniti sono diventati, e sono sempre di più, un nemico. Non uso virgolette, ne vorreid avveri sbagliarmi, ma sarebbe strano pensare che ci dice di volere invadere un Paese sovrano, un giorno sì e u o anche, possa definirsi qualcosa di meno di un nemico per il mondo libero.

Gli scenari sono tutti preoccupanti, e in nessuno di questi ha senso, secondo me, fischiettare facendo finta che nulla sia successo, e andare avanti come prima. Quello a cui posso rinunciare, lo rimuoverò dalla mia vita digitale.

Tra tutte le cose con cui WTO avendo a che fare nel - lungo - processo di migrazione verso servizi europei, non avrei mai pensato di avere grosse difficoltà con la posta elettronica.

È so quando ti metti attivamente a spostare tutti gli account, le newsletter, gli spid, ecc, che ti rendi conto di 2 cose: ti sei aperto milioni di account a destra e a manca, la metà dei quali inutili, e l'altra metà non riesci a distinguerla bene, nel rumore dello spam.

Alcuni servizi poi sono impossibili da modificare.

Ryanair ad esempio non prevede che la mail si possa cambiare. Idem alcuni operatori telefonici (very, lyca) . Devi contattare il supporto, e sperare che lo facciano.

Ryan mi dice di chiudere l'account e riaprirlo. Idem volotea.

Insomma, una cosa che sembrava semplice mi fa capire quanto siamo ancora legati ad una servizio che diamo. cosi scontato, come la mail.

E questo, Google e Microsoft lo sanno benissimo: all'account di posta anche loro legano un sacco di cose (YouTube, Onedrive) e li rendono quasi impossibili da chiudere.

Vediamo chi vince. 😊

I have experience with #iodesOS on another supported device. Can recommend this option very much.

I have a Fairphone 5. Which degoogled OS should I install on it?

Would appreciate it if you have real world experience actually installing the OS you recommend. It's really difficult, in my experience.

Terminal Tilt is exactly 58 subscribers away from the 1K milestone and monetization.

In case you are new to my channel, welcome! As a disabled queer creator, I know how often our voices are drowned out by corporate "ai" sludge. Terminal Tilt is a space where I can speak authentically, fight for digital sovereignty, and show that there is a place for us in the technical world.

I started it because I like to watch YouTube and I often search for Linux videos. I find it infuriating that 90% of the videos have "ai" generated voices, graphics, and scripts. I want to learn new things, not have unoriginal ideas regurgitated to me by bots. Terminal Tilt is a strictly Non-AI channel focused on ethical computing, promoting #FOSS, and providing a direct alternative to the Big Tech surveillance machine. I respect your time and your sovereignty. Lets build a community together!

If you believe in a web where the user is in control and their privacy respected, and our technology does not have to destroy the planet, help me cross the finish line today.

I have some great stuff in the pipeline, such as reviews for security hardware, quick looks and installations of GNU/Linux distributions , and discussions on the state of computing.

I am also improving quickly. Every video has been a learning experience and I am very open to constructive criticism.

My newest video from earlier today: 5 Extensions for Real Digital Independence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA9FjlZMJBQ

My most popular video (90k+ views): The Windows Exodus Has Begun https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLzdTgCXyRU

I also post videos to PeerTube here: https://gnulinux.tube/c/terminaltilt/videos

Every boost helps us show that independent, human created tech content has a place in 2026.

You prob know this already, but if you duck-search, you can go to a slightly different entry point at https://noai.duckduckgo.com to do web searches without AI slop dumping on you.

I see they've dressed up the landing page their! Now more obviously non-AI. I mean, it's a selling feature, so yeah, go to town guys.

(if you still google things, consider the duck search! it's worked well for me for years, and the non-ai version is a nice step forward).
