This is an open question on how to get the masses to care…

Unfortunately, if other people don’t protect their privacy it affects those who do, because we’re all connected (e.g. other family members, friends). So it presents a problem of how do you get people who don’t care, to care?

I started the Rebel Tech Alliance nonprofit to try to help with this, but we’re still really struggling to convert people who have never thought about this.

(BTW you might need to refresh our website a few times to get it to load - no idea why… It does have an SSL cert!)

So I hope we can have a useful discussion here - privacy is a team sport, how do we get more people to play?

    I sometimes wonder if NordVPN has done more for the privacy cause than anything else, purely for the sheer amount of advertising.

      But most of their claims are false. And how does it do anything for privacy. And if you say obscures your ip address.
