There's also the "no thanks" app which highlights Israeli-backed products

What are alternative search engines, emails, etc that we can migrate to?

I have not been using Microsoft and trying to also see if there are other software as well.

Brave is a good browser and you can turn AI off on it too! Look into Proton for email and VPN and some other stuff. @ykreborn on Instagram has a liberation toolbox that helps you get away everything!

There's a certain (tragic) irony that the list you mention is on IG... That's one for the bin too with their censorship, shadow banning and Trump sycophancy. There doesn't seem to be a whole heap left... Would love to see the list but I daren't go back to insta.

Every platform has or will fall to censorship, as has always happened. And as always, we adapt

Don't use ProtonVPN, they're linked to Israeli technology.

- Email: Proton Mail, StartMail & Posteo

- Browsers: DuckDuckGo & Vivaldi

- VPN: Mullalyup

- Office: WPS & LibreOffice

I wrote an article a month ago on ethical products but Substack removed, this is also a Zionist entity, just in case you didn't know.

Ah, where did you read this information? I try to keep up to date and do quite a bit of research and never read this. It would be great to know who they aligned with as I've never read anything about this. What do you use?

Brave is actually another very censorious algorithm. Not much different to Google, DuckDuckGo, Mojave - even Yandex (the Russian search engine) biases information to favour Israel.

I use DuckDuckgo -- very good at blocking trackers

Hi, need to educate myself. They removed it? Wow! I am not surprised. Look what they provided for Free Press so she can grow. Can you publish it again? Have you complained about it?

Yes, I was blocked last year after I contacted the new COO, she's 100% Zionist, her response to my email "lol". A day hadn't passed and I was blocked from numerous paid subscriptions, then I couldn't access anything. I wrote to the support team and they stated they couldn't find my account! It took 8 months to get refunds paid and they don't seem to realise (or care) that the more restrictions, blocks, shadow banning etc., they do, the more people will stop subscribing and go elsewhere. UpScrolled is a new application that will never turn to the zio side, and more people are joining because many of us are talking. One thing they are so stupid at is realising nothing lasts forever and when the masses start leaving they're going to be wishing they'd chosen a better business model. Oh and to remove the exec list from their website was also rather stupid, arrogance and ignorance shining through.

I can always create another account if they target me again, but they've lost my subscriptions.

They'll not last forever, that I'm 100% sure of. Articles will be written about who and what they are. For many it's a convenient place, as was Twitter, X, Instagram, FaKebook etc.

Just a note, check regularly if you post notes, comments etc., that they're displaying 24, 48 etc., hours after. If they start shadow banning then your card is marked.

I have heard of UpScrolled. I will keep an eye and see what they will do. So they choose to go incognito. That makes it more suspicious. Well they seem low key Zio having given Free Speech such a big platform to grow.

Thank you!

...it's not really free speech, they shadow ban a lot, Zionist is Zionist, there's no low key, they're all the same!
