I agree, come of as an american libertarian, but at least he's not on the weirder side of the political ideology with age of consent (from my limited knowledge of him)

Never used it but come across them. Seem holesome.

I've been using mullvads leta search engine and thats been fine for me

The dictionary definition of obfuscation means to purposely obscure , make harder, and there is no mention of a time frame. So with the add by URL gone from settings and a limited amount of defaults search engine thats are all shit and no clear reasoning for the removal of that setting then how does that not fit the definition of obfuscation.

ETA: My point is you don't get to complain when people reflect back the energy you put out.

I definitly can complain as can you and anyone else. I am admittedly stoborn (not for stobornness sake or pride) but I have not resorted to name calling

Works amazingly but anyone know how to support without google play

I don't believe you'd read the body of my post. As I'd never said default search engine couldn't be changed

So point is that while your saying I didnt do research what gave you that impression. My dispute is with obfuscation

I'd agree but if all I wanted was to torrent without my ISP knowing then its not important, personally I use paid for VPN service but I'd class myself as a privacy advocate

Download whatever distro seems interesting, if tails is something you want to try then try it I actually had a similar introduction to Linux but I doubt youd stick with tails as its not a daily not to say tails doesn't have its place. I personal like arch distros and if your moving from windows you'd probably like KDE plasma. Using Linux won't instantly net you privacy, this is something that you'd need to pro actively aim to be private, like what is the URL for the pirate bay, 1337x, can I trust this torrent? Which browser do you use and search engine, what torrent client can be trusted.

I'd recommend using transmission, qbittorrent or anything Foss with half decent user base. VPN you've got proton free, mullvad costs but I'd say its worth it or you can tunnel through tor network. Distros you've got lots of options, recommend you look at distrowatch or youtubers like distrotube. Find a small pall of trust worthy torrent sites and names of trust worthy repackere, fitgirl, dodi, jc141 to name a few.

But most importantly. Make sure to seed 🙃

Any distro is fine for piracy, ~~you could also set up tor tunnel for torrents~~ Only if your client supports it if ISP is something your worried about or just use a free VPN service

If you'd not mentioned BG3 then more people would agree, but any game that is buggy should be refundable for sure and to say other wise is anti consumer

Part of the vocal few, most people seem to agree that googles relationship to Mozilla is negative, and it doesn't matter that you'd find the answer by searching for it, what does matter is that there was a perfectly adequate solution that is now gone for no rhyme or reason, and not one person here has said why removing the option is beneficial but what ever, this conversation has become petty and I don't care for the direction you've taken
