You need to buy second phone
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.
And make it that it has no connection to your real identity
Apple/Google will know.
Then you need to make false acca
They will not
Apparently no company has my 'real info'
They dont check your real identity
It's not hard for Apple or Google to piece together who you are.
facebook tracks you even when you have no profile
I get texts about voting aimed for my sister/old roommates
You walk around with the thing on you and leave it in your house.
dude there are fingerprint scanners in phones now
even if you don't use the it still scans you
Its possible to avoid all this
The fingerprint thing doesn't 'scan' your fingerprint
god damn phone looks at your face
Apple and Google know far more about you than any secret police in history--even if you don't volunteer them information.
Just very inconvenient
And hard
Yep
The bank is biggest weakness
The bank issue is my personal issue.

That's why I haven't actually contributed anything to Tim yet.
Use crypto
Thats a way to get around it
I get paid directly, and usually pay to a middle man
Paid directly for what?
Had paypal put a hold on my account because they questioned my buying stuff from overseas
like bitch, I'm buying resin and pvc
not fucking fertilizer and uranium
Now I'm suspicious.
Actually, how do you use a middleman? I don't really trust PayPal from a "keep my info from leaking" point of view.
Well ironically, paypal doesn't let you change your info on your account
but as long as the payment info matches other side info, then there isn't a problem
and for shipping stuff, middlemen are pretty common
especially when dealing with business that don't deal internationally, or you are simply wanting to save on shipping
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
have that sent to a local middleman who will distribute out the bulk order
