I just wanted to say thank you to the community for maintaining this space for us and continuing to discuss privacy issues. The biggest reason I struggle to come to the forum is because the state of the privacy world can give me so much anxiety. There are literally news articles that I can’t read because I know the anxiety and stress will mess with me too much. You guys staying on top of things helps me feel comfortable take a time-out on this stuff. Thanks for looking out and I hope you also look after your mental health amidst all the negativity.
Easy solution: Mute News, hang out in Lounge 
Unironically wondering if we should have “good news” / “bad news” tags which people could follow independently…

This would be AWESOME. It’s so tiresome sometimes going through with your day and then on top of everything “having to” be scared or mad or sad for whatever the hell happened that day.

Would love the good news and bad news tags implemented. Useful for the mental health of privacy conscious people.

I recently wrote about EFF’s blog post and I would honestly recommend reading it. It talks about we should recognize all the strides we have made in privacy and understand that we don’t need to carry the burden of privacy ourselves. If anything, this forum and the EFF are demonstrations that we are not alone, that there are other people standing beside you, working and fighting for the same goals. It’s really easy to get overwhelmed with all the issues, however we need to sometimes take a step back and see our own privacy achievements.
