A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.

In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

It seems surprising to be greeted by a cookies banner on such a website. There isn’t even the option to reject them.
Cookie banner is imposed by the underlying hosting, Miraheze, which is hosted in UK where they're mandatory.
I don't currently have the ability to host a publicly facing wiki myself, so the next best thing is Miraheze. They're a non-profit hoster who do not impose any ads or tracking, so they meet most of the requirements of hosting a privacy conscious wiki. They do have their issues, such as the cookie banner as well as banning contributions from TOR, but despite that, I do not know of a better option short of self-hosting.
