Lots of internet censorship lately.

To hide your location (circumvent the UK's Online Safety Act, etc),
use a VPN: Proton or Mullvad
or use the dark web with Tor.

For messaging (ensure you have a secure group): use Signal.

For web browsing: use Vivaldi, LibreWolf, Waterfox, Firefox with uBlock,
or again, use the dark web with Tor.

For video/social media: use Lemmy for video and Mastodon for everything else
(we're on Mastodon here).

Find mesh networks: for example, this is the NYC mesh network.
