A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- 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
- Be nice :)

I'm by no means a privacy expert by I don't see much upside to using the "privacy.com" referral thing referenced.
Privacy.com allows you to create virtual cards, allowing you to set up rules for how money can be used through them. It also masks the receipt details that your bank would normal get access to so they can't sell that data about what you purchased.
I didn't know credit card/banks sell your info... That sounds absurd
Edit:
So there is no downside or cost to a customer using it there no subscription to use it that's what I thought it was.
