You use "night mode" because you want to look cool and edgy.

I use dark mode because white text on dark is the ergonomically superior design and I don't want my eyes to get degraded by white/bright mode...

You use @torproject / Tor Browser because you want to buy drugs on the Darknet.

I use Tor because I can't stand JavaScript, Advertising, Tracking and Cookies and enforce my inalienable human right to privacy by all means necessary!

You use http://frogfind.com to get online with your vintage computer.

I use FrogFind to get online over Iridium and EDGEland-speed throttled mobile networks.

You BitTorrent your favorite Distro to get it downloaded faster.

I BitTorrent my favorite distros after my mobile data has run out to give my mobile carrier a middle finger for not offering a real & uncapped data flatrate at a reasonable price!

You use PGP/MIME because you want to look "Tech Literate".

I use PGP/MIME because I not only adhere to the highest potentially applicable data protection standards, but aim to exceed them by a long shot, as employers/clients expect me to do so.

You use XMPP+OMEMO because you think it's neat.

I use XMPP+OMEMO because all centralized, single-vendor and/or single-provider messengers are inherently garbage, collect PII like phone numbers for no "legitimate reason" and don't offer proper End-to-End - Encryption with self-custody of all the keys, making them either honeypots or prime targets for warrants.

You want to have anonymous prepaid SIM cards because you want to prank people.

I want anonymous prepaid SIM cards because KYC is the illicit activity on something where fraud at the expense of the telco is impossible and because it's cyberfacist bs!

You hate public video surveillance because you find it creepy.

I hate public video surveillance because I didn't sleep in history class and know how trivial it is to use (not abuse, because it's designed for that!) it for facist purposes.
