The French government is considering a law that would require web browsers – like Mozilla’s Firefox – to block websites chosen by the government.

What can the Russian government realistically do to me?

My government is the one that can ruin my life.

Totally! While you’re at it: Make sure to use WeChat and TikTok. Oh, also: Hoyoverse makes great games. They require admin perms but you wouldn’t worry about that.

no, but seriously

Yea I just realized what sub this is, I wasn’t aware before. I definitely didn’t mean that it is a private browser. But still, realistically, what can the Russians or Chinese do to me or my data? The danger comes from my government/EU.

No worries. Not the target audience.

If you have Netflix you can check out “The Great Hack”. It’s about Cambridge Analytica and their role in elections. Companies can use your data to change you. Your opinions, who you vote for, what you buy. A lot of stuff.
