You need to buy second phone

2018-09-19 03:44:06 UTC  

Legally, there's not much you can do to break up the tech cartel right now, atleast not all at once.

However, there was that time we threatened to break up Microsoft (and did break off their web division) because they bundled IE with an OS.

2018-09-19 03:44:07 UTC  

And make it that it has no connection to your real identity

2018-09-19 03:44:15 UTC  

Apple/Google will know.

2018-09-19 03:44:17 UTC  

Then you need to make false acca

2018-09-19 03:44:26 UTC  

They will not

2018-09-19 03:44:37 UTC  

Apparently no company has my 'real info'

2018-09-19 03:44:43 UTC  

They dont check your real identity

2018-09-19 03:44:45 UTC  

It's not hard for Apple or Google to piece together who you are.

2018-09-19 03:44:51 UTC  

facebook tracks you even when you have no profile

2018-09-19 03:44:53 UTC  

I get texts about voting aimed for my sister/old roommates

2018-09-19 03:44:56 UTC  

You walk around with the thing on you and leave it in your house.

2018-09-19 03:44:59 UTC  

dude there are fingerprint scanners in phones now

2018-09-19 03:45:09 UTC  

even if you don't use the it still scans you

2018-09-19 03:45:17 UTC  

Its possible to avoid all this

2018-09-19 03:45:19 UTC  

The fingerprint thing doesn't 'scan' your fingerprint

2018-09-19 03:45:21 UTC  

god damn phone looks at your face

2018-09-19 03:45:23 UTC  

Apple and Google know far more about you than any secret police in history--even if you don't volunteer them information.

2018-09-19 03:45:27 UTC  

Just very inconvenient

2018-09-19 03:45:31 UTC  

And hard

2018-09-19 03:45:32 UTC  

you'd have to not use a bank either

2018-09-19 03:45:38 UTC  

Yep

2018-09-19 03:45:49 UTC  

The bank is biggest weakness

2018-09-19 03:45:49 UTC  

The bank issue is my personal issue.

2018-09-19 03:46:01 UTC  

*when you play sudoku on the toilet it listens to you poop*

2018-09-19 03:46:01 UTC  

That's why I haven't actually contributed anything to Tim yet.

2018-09-19 03:46:20 UTC  

Use crypto

2018-09-19 03:46:32 UTC  

Thats a way to get around it

2018-09-19 03:46:37 UTC  

I get paid directly, and usually pay to a middle man

2018-09-19 03:46:55 UTC  

Paid directly for what?

2018-09-19 03:46:58 UTC  

Had paypal put a hold on my account because they questioned my buying stuff from overseas

2018-09-19 03:47:13 UTC  

like bitch, I'm buying resin and pvc

2018-09-19 03:47:23 UTC  

not fucking fertilizer and uranium

2018-09-19 03:49:11 UTC  

Now I'm suspicious.

2018-09-19 03:49:46 UTC  

Actually, how do you use a middleman? I don't really trust PayPal from a "keep my info from leaking" point of view.

2018-09-19 03:51:34 UTC  

Well ironically, paypal doesn't let you change your info on your account

2018-09-19 03:51:47 UTC  

but as long as the payment info matches other side info, then there isn't a problem

2018-09-19 03:52:07 UTC  

and for shipping stuff, middlemen are pretty common

2018-09-19 03:52:24 UTC  

especially when dealing with business that don't deal internationally, or you are simply wanting to save on shipping

2018-09-19 03:52:49 UTC  

eg. 10 people want to buy various shit in Japan, have all of that sent to a middleman in Japan who will ship it all in one package

2018-09-19 03:53:09 UTC  

have that sent to a local middleman who will distribute out the bulk order
