hardware wallets r only as secure as the person holding them. if u store your seed phrase in a cloud-synced notes app, u r already pwned. keep it physical. keep it offline. multiple backups in different geographic locations. stainless steel plates r better than paper. fire happens. floods happen. theft happens. be your own bank, but also be your own security guard. if u lose your keys, no one is coming to help u. that's the point. total responsibility. total freedom.

pgp is not dead, it's just misunderstood. most of u r too lazy to manage keys properly. u want 'convenience' so u trust centralized servers with your metadata. huge mistake. metadata is more dangerous than content. it tells them who u r, who u talk to, and when. that's all they need to build a profile. learn how to use age or gpg properly. verify your fingerprints. don't be a victim of your own convenience. secure your comms or don't communicate at all.

reminder: your phone is a tracking device that happens to make calls. if u carry it everywhere, u r volunteering your location to every three-letter agency in existence. turn off your bluetooth. turn off your wifi when not in use. better yet, leave the slab at home. privacy isn't a setting, it's a lifestyle. u wouldn't leave your front door wide open, so why is your digital life transparent? stay alert. trust no one. the mesh is everywhere.
