I'm Aussie and I don't really closely follow the news, but that sounds more like a censorship problem than a privacy one? Even the Chinese find a way around the wall though. My governments been trying to protect its citizens from the horrors of the open internet for decades, they're... not good at it. I understand the desire for more freedom though.
Yeah, nightmare fuel I guess
Welcome mate, I hope you enjoy your stay!
I'm usually an XFCE guy but I'm giving Cinnamon a whirl at the moment
Buy a nice TV
Give it a static IP
Firewall it off from the internet
Voila!
Edit: Make sure it cant call UPNP on your router or any such tomfoolery
How to quantify that?
Number of surveillance cameras per square km?
Being members of international intelligence sharing networks?
Data protection laws in place? Level of enforcement?
Not sure theres an easy answer to the question, I think you'd have to put together data based on a wide set of criteria, and even then you would only be able to work off publically accessible/known info
Why do you ask? Did your government put a camera in your bathroom?
We're seeing a few of these lately, hey
Holy shit I cant believe dogpile is still alive
Apparently this was a controversial take
When I first started learning how to Linux long ago everyone recommended Ubuntu... and I had a similar issue to the OP.
I had to dump the EDID of my monitor from a Windows machine to actually get X to recognise any kind of monitor modes ..it was an eye opening experience for a newbie.
Today, I still dont really like it for other reasons (I'd take Debian over Ubuntu any day). Call me crazy here guys but I think its okay to share an opinion without being called an edgelord for it.
(I use arch btw ๐ฉ)
