  • In the current context i mean any of these “lifestyle” people, i mean these that basically create nothing, whose content is either just about themself, like a vlog or them live streaming how they play a game while they add nothing of value to it, or these whose content is them beeing a menace on socitiy, or pointless drama or ragebait stuff.

    I dont think any of this is art.

    But i dont mean anyone that actually does create something, so i dont mean online comedians like you, that is an artist for me in this context.

    I actually think it is kind of hard to define, influencer is probably not even the right word for what i mean, but i have heard people use it for what i ment… But yeah i am probably using the word wrong


  • i mean i get what you mean, and i ofc also want UBI for everyone

    But i still think giving it to influencers specifically at this point is just further encouraging shitty behaviour, i think this will just make even more people try that, and to get any relevancy they would have to be even worse as a person to get any attention… And i doubt that they would not be greedy enough to not take not any extra money from whoever is offereing it.

    I think it should be considere that they would litteraly influence others and i doubt it would be in a better way then it is currently.

    i think i would be fine with litteraly any other group of people instead, and also influencers are probably not included anyway tho

    (ofc there are probably some good influencers, but they are drowned out by all the others)

    edit: but like i think i still would rather have artists + influencers ubi then none










  • For anyone who considers getting the tor vpn android app “Tor VPN is beta software. Do not rely on it for anything other than testing. It may leak information and should not be relied on for anything sensitive” (it is a disclaimer from their website)

    Thank you for adding the created date column and making sweden green



  • this is awkward i am sorry it seems like my memory failed me, for one it is was mullvad and obscura that have a deal, not nymvpn…

    and then i also thought somehow that vpns are in sweden protected by the constitution, but it appears its more like normal laws. Which appear to be effective tho. But mainly i thought about that recently switzerland was proposing laws like this https://tuta.com/blog/switzerland-surveillance-plan (possible that laws like these get proposed in sweden aswell ofc) which makes it sound like the privacy stands of the goverment is not that strong anymore, but there are probably no effects really at the moment. I think i would rank sweden and switzerland equally i guess, i mean the famouse mullvad example kind of proofs that they are safe i think…

    But like my research into the countries is not that deep, so if you really looked into this deeply and switzerland is really better for some reason, than i guess it is like this.

    But i still think the age is important, like sure its completly possible that an old vpn suddenly gets infiltrated or idk what really, but since for vpns are mostly trust based, i think that the track record is the best option for this… and new vpns just dont have that long of a record (personally i would not use like a 1 month old vpn for example, whoever good it sounds)

    or can nymvpn offer garantuees similar to tor?

    I do not agree with placing switzerland over sweden in that location category

    and i think a category should included, that tracks age of vpn or something like that, considering this is nymvpns biggest flaw… still hard to say how trustworthy it is + their software is less battle tested

    (and just for someone curiouse, it should be mentioned that nymvpn does use mullvad servers/ has a deal with mullvad sry i mixed that up obscura and mullvad had partnership, not nymvpn)
