<h2>What are "tech normies"?</h2>
<p>
I personally think "tech normies" are people who just live the corporate
world and use nothing that is not made by some huge company like apple
or microsoft, they want someone else to make choices and decisions for
them instead of them thinking what they will use and do on the computer,
it's like they just want some master to lead them and show them the way
how to do or use anything, those type of people have completely lost the
sense of (digital) responsibility.
</p>
<p>
They just want to use apps, click buttons and ask microsoft or whoever
the fuck they follow what to do and use, for example if microsoft
includes microsoft edge in windows, normies will use that instead of
actually deciding on what browser to use because all they want is to
click buttons like a primitive monkey, doesn't make any choices,
decisions or anything responsible to themselves.
</p>
<h2>(Digital) normies are like... digital prisoners</h2>
<p>
In prison people lose their sense of responsibility as they know that
everyday they will get food, a shelter and what to do, they will always
know what will happen and don't have to worry about money, taxes and
anything that will happen in the future while you, a free person, have
to. You have to pay taxes, work to get money and make sure not to
overspend as you can lose your shelter, food and supplies in general.
</p>
<h2>"Freedom is sometimes scary"</h2>
<p>
So is the real life, you will never know what will happen next and have
to worry about everything as a free person and you don't have anything
or anyone to cover up for you and you have to make choices and if you
make bad ones - you will have to face consequences.
</p>
<h2>Taking first step to digital freedom</h2>
<p>
Stop depending on proprietary, censoring, centralised, etc. services and
start using libre and FOSS operating systems like
GNU/Linux((-libre)(-hardened)) and get away from companies and stop
treating them as anything else but companies, their goal is to make
money and sell your data, start being responsible on what you use and
think, trust no-one and think for yourself.
