@KarMarJo57 yes, me too. . .local small stores as much as possible. Farms too. I have both a house phone and a 3G phone (blackberry style). It won't be supported after 11/21, I believe. So I will go without after that. When we travel, it is a hassle to not have the smartphone when every business seems to expect everyone to have one. But it's ok. . .we manage. I'm thinking about a VPN. I use a browser right now called Vivaldi. There is a browser called Brave people like for security.
@KarMarJo57 😁haha. no. I
agree with you. I try hard to use Amazon only if i can't find an item I am looking for anywhere else! (Like a book that a person self published) I don't go to Whole Foods (Amazon) or use Google, WalMart, Target... Got rid of my smart phone. We each must decide what to do with the information we come across in accordance with biblical precepts. I am thankful for the internet in one way: it has been used to expose so much of the enemy's plans to us in these last days!
@KarMarJo57 I do believe they (large corporations, including and possibly in particular Microsoft!) are all corrupt. If it's about big money and/or some sort of power over the people, it's the devil's bailiwick.
@raymondthebrave Hi! I agree, but the fact that CERN scientists (Scientists who met at CERN is how they phrase it) developed protonmail gives me pause. Tutanota is another alternative.
No Words. 😭 Pakistan Court rules that this 14 year old Christian girl who was kidnapped, raped, and forced to Convert to Islam cannot be re-united with her grieving parents, but must remain in the custody of the Muslim man that kidnapped her - because now they are 'legally' married and she is a Muslim.

Lover of Truth. Walking in the Way by faith, in the light of the Word; wide awake to the currently forming "beast system" and all of its many tentacles. Watching and praying, testing the spirits. Trusting as a little child and trying to keep myself from idols.
