You're right. This kind of thing is best done on I2P. It'll be PeerTube just with ripped videos from YouTube lol
YouTube and my existing Gmail is the only thing tying me back. And the occasional Google maps. I don't even use the rest of their services anymore
The police are stupid (how did they think they could catch any criminal by raiding an exit node operator? Did they manage to compromise TOR completely? Didn't think so), and I hope the people of the NGO are alright.
I can get a Anker 2 pack 6 feet USB-C cable for $11 lol. Why in Christ's name should I buy an Apple-branded cable?
But then again, I don't have anything from Apple, so moot point I guess
Instead of having a central server, consumers interact with each other directly. That's P2P Vs centralization.
Components? What exactly would be a "product" for you then? For all intents and purposes, I get the exact same quality from AliExpress and Banggood that I get from Amazon, just the latter charges me twice/thrice. Even my experience with refunds has been better with the Chinese than Amazon who absolutely doesn't want to part with the money they wrongly took from me.
I wouldn't buy expensive electronics like Mobile phones and TVs from Chinese shops. Cups, a torch, key fob, package opener, tape etc are all "products" I bought from AliExpress which would have cost me at least twice as much from Amazon/Walmart. Why on earth should I shop at American companies again when they resell the same stuff to make extra profits off of my back??
