No, that has changed since almost 3 years.

Please verify before you accidentally spread misinformation.

They collect personal data before you even have the chance to opt out which is a clear violation of the GDPR. They promise to delete it within 30 days when you opt out, but is was collected nonetheless.

Reality does too.

Data protection isn’t binary, and you should treat companies, products, etc. as they’re and not mix subjective with objective.

But you’re right, overall is Discord pretty terrible in this regard.

What makes Chinese hardware more trustworthy?

What other hardware do you trust, if any?

It is probably illegal depending on your jurisdiction and Swiss laws.

Not all browser extensions are fingerprintable, only those that do by the website measureable differences to your browsing, which Snowflake, as far as I’m aware does not.

Fingerprinting is a very difficult topic. A lot on how their algorithms and tech actually works is obfuscated and hidden from the people’s eye. I will be totally honest with you, I don’t think changing ur timezone will gian you much benefit, it might even make you stick out more since it doesn’t correlate with other information like your IP address, preferred language, etc.

There has been a browser extension that set ur browser values to match the IP address region, but it’s now history sadly.

Overall, I think if cchanging your timezone will benefit or harm you, comes down to very specific adversaries.

You seem to be unable to understand simple English, so I’ll end the conversation here.

This pretty much not adressing what I said at all. I use LineageOS myself and it’s miles better than the Stock Operating Systems of most if not all devices they support. But we shouldn’t mislead people, LineageOS is not fully “degoogled” and uses some Google services, even without the Google Play Services installed.

LineageOS is not “Google-free”. The OS still connects to various Google services by default, even without Google Play Services installed.

To be fair, Discord has e2e encrypted voice calls using their “Dave” protocol.

Not a good idea. The value changes rapidly.

True, I just thought it might be more useful to OP than just the PDF + all other audits are listed too.

My point is that sharing an article by an irrelevant third party spreading misinformation due commercial interest is not a good pratice.

Share the audit then, not the tomsguide article.

Oh I’m aware of this, their is no way around this without revealing personal data :(

I think Tor with Tor Bridges (to obscure that you use Tor) is your best bet. Or using Tor over a VPN (using a VPN systemwide and then connect to Tor)

Everything else is just standard opsec, not leaking personal information and so on

Also, don’t use a E-Mail address or phone number tied to your real information, like your name or IP address. Because that is how many people got caught in the past.
