Remember when a phone meant Freedom?

Do you remember when a phone meant Freedom?


When phones were connected by wire, people were free.


Maintain your personal Agency and your Privacy

In social science, Agency is defined as the capacity of individuals to act independently and to make their own free choices.

Many modern technologies are designed to take away your various freedoms or agency. Cell phone tracking, arbitrary facial recognition, digital cash, payment services of all kinds, loyalty cards etc. These are all forms of Techno Slavery.

Every one of these owns or controls something that was only yours in the past. A true loss of freedom is happening continually to all of us.

Slow TechnoSlavery down whenever you can. As an example: purchase with cash when you can, turn your cell phone off when not in use, clear your location history, don't post anything personal on social media, lie to all pollsters. In short: PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY or what you have left of it. It isn't too late to start.
