DU is my only social media and I block all the rest, including bluesky. It's not because I'm paranoid, it's just all too much noise for me. I quit Amazon when Bezos got too chummy with the-one-who-shall-not-be-named.
I don't see any internet or television advertising. My truck is old and doesn't have any "smart" features.
All those things probably give me a rather suspicious electronic signature should the government ever decides to kick down the doors of dissidents like me.
