It pisses me off how many people trust TechLore, it just spreads privacy misinformation and gives people false security. It is one of the most aggravating things in the privacy community to me.

@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat OK, so these are the guys posting at the peertube service at tube.privacytools.io/ ? What's the ratio like? 90% bull?

@redcoqui Yes, that's the one. They're one of the largest privacy channels on YouTube as well. It really goes from video to video ratio wise, and I don't think they have malicious intent, I just think they don't know what they're talking about. Even they're "anonymity test" (which is impossible and just to make people feel better and push TechLore's narrative of easy anonymity) hardly touches on OS, OS hardening, Tor, etc. They also heavily oversell the capabilities of VPNs and things similar
