Ex :reddit-logo: user and resident leftist edgelord there. On my new phone (unfortunately it's an iphone so vuvuzela), I really want to keep it as "normie" as possible.
The only thing I have transferred over there is my phone number, and I'm using a new icloud email address too. is this something to worry about (sorry for the boomer-tier questions). If there's not much I can do, what can I do to fuck up the data that I do have so I can at least resist being profiled?
1 and 2 are pretty trivial for 99% of people as long as you use some basic common sense. 3 is very, very difficult and almost not worth worrying about. Don't take your phone to a protest or anything stupid like that, but if the Government is at the point of subpeona-ing your Hexbear Dot Org posts, you're already fucked.
Yeah there are definitely real life things that you should do your best to make sure the government doesn't have access to. Things which could be weaponized by police departments. But you can't really hide your political beliefs or organizing or anything like that.
