The media is manufacturing consent for censorship of Telegram and presumably other secure messaging platforms.

Secret service about as useless as the TSA.

Bitcoin isn’t private, you can see how much BTC a sender or recipient is holding and what transactions they’ve made. I’d argue that without privacy mitigations such as a mixing service it’s even less private than credit cards. They should have gone with Monero instead.

Ladybird isn’t ready yet but one to keep an eye on.

Rainlendar is good and works on Windows and Linux. It’s not open source though, and some features such as Caldav support require a pro license for €10

No, you’re the one who doesn’t understand. We don’t want censorship, and we have this thing called the 1st Amendment.

The problem is that some people are quick to call things Nazi and white supremacist, when it’s actually just something they disagree with.

The people are pushing back against the policies that have ruined their economy.
