You can do all the privacy measures in the world, but if the people you talk to are using spyware then it’s all out the window. (literally Windows, get it?)
This video breaks down some of the basic reasons to switch to Linux so you can convince your friends: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/why-linux-beats-windows/
Let’s start with the basics. Do you acknowledge that msn.com news leans to the left? Then do you acknowledge that Microsoft Bing and Windows, promote MSN?
I do not agree that MSN is left. Maybe it’s liberal, but liberal is not left.
What defines left then?
To me, it’s about removing the ability for a few people to hoard wealth that they’ll never use for the sake of power and control. It’s about people helping their community to whatever extent is reasonable, so if you make 7 figures a day, either pay a big chunk of that money back to your workers who do most of the heavy lifting, or give it back to the community as a whole, rather than stuffing it in a Swiss bank.

True or False: Bill Gates said he favors higher tax rates than now. And MSN and “Liberals” on CNN/MSNBC want higher tax rates as well?
I’ve never heard of him suggesting any actual wealth redistribution. I don’t follow MSN at all, but I’d imagine by higher taxes they mean slightly more taxes on people making 6 figures. I don’t care about people making only 6 figures. I don’t believe Bill Gates is out there promoting policies that will relinquish his financial power.
Are you from the US? I think the lack of a leftist political party has skewed what Americans view as left. Not even any of the third parties (with a leader eligible to be president) are left. The democratic party of the USA is most closely aligned with the conservative party of canada, from the policies that I’ve seen
