The problem is that everything has got a computer in it these days and I too fear that the only option to avoid all the bad-ness going on is to opt out of computing as well :( But whilst I still can, I'll at least run my own servers and rely on the "cloud" as little as possible. Librem 5 phone coming next year for me. Opting out of the big 5 is also very much something I would like to do: 1. Google (including Android) 2. Apple 3. Microsoft (including LinkedIn, Skype and other privacy nightmares) 4. Amazon (including AWS) 5. Facebook Oh and Twitter would make it six... NB: The article is not mine, but the sentiments are the same: https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/mbxndq/one-month-without-big-five-microsoft-google-facebook-apple-amazon I even hate it very much that our public broadcaster has to have fb and twitter accounts -- they are supposed to be 100% free and non-commercial, but that's really just a dream because they, themselves (abc.net.au) are always going to be more commercial than they'll admit. Being sans systemd is not enough, that is another eco-system I want to avoid as much as I can (as we all know here). Kind Regards AndrewM
