Google lets you sign in with a selfie video it stores on its servers. Here's what it means for AI training, government access and age checks.

I have almost totally degoogled, I am waiting on a hand me down Mac mini that I will install Debian on and use a “google free” version of Youtube. I currently use Librewolf, with adguard and pihole, I just started using sponser block and it is great. I wish there where more alternatives that more creators used.

I use nebula and peertube. I've actually started reading a lot more and I'm much happier for it.

Yes I bought a life time subscription to nebula back when it was brand new, I should really get back to using it. I have wanted to get into peertube but I have not found creators I would like to follow or Canadian servers I can use. I maybe doing something wrong with peertube.

Haven seems like a potential alternative

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
