True, I meant anonymous in the sense that participants are not generally identifiable by one another.
pCloud, under business terms fairly towards the end:

To an extent. Lemmy is a useful substitute for reddit because it's anonymous, so I don't know and to an extent don't care who I'm talking to. With messenger services it's a different use case, I need the exact people I want to talk to on there, or it's essentially worthless.
What does magic the gathering have to do with this photo?
That's what YOU get since you're neither in China nor Japan. They only get to see their relative government's name. China in fact gets to see nothing since they block Google, but it you happen to be in Hong Kong or Macau, you would.
Nah. I'll start boycotting google when there are useful alternatives. Amazon, facebook, reddit - no problem.
Google search - fine, I can get by with DDG or Yandex. Gmail - sure, whatever. Maps? Organic Maps (and other openstreetmaps front-ends) works alright for getting your bearings, but it's a far cry from useful for finding businesses, and terrible for navigation. Waze used to be the only viable alternative, but ever since Google bought them, it's hard to justify a full boycott without massively inconveniencing myself.
Same for meta as a whole. Facebook and Instagram, sure, no need. But living without whatsapp is simply impossible in some countries, where it's the de-facto standard for communication, and even used as the only means of contact with government agencies.
Shareholders don't individually sanction business decisions, only targets. And often they are not even aware what the company did until the next board meeting. If it's mentioned at all. So calling them complicit is a long shot, and shows that you don't really know anything about the matter.
No libraries where I'm at, unfortunately, and no e-libraries whatsoever (unless we talk about not exactly legal ones).
No such thing in my city :-(
Unfortunately there is no library in my city, and no e-library in my country.

Proton and Astrill are very good as well.
