Issue 5 of Control+Alt+Autonomy is live: VPN Pressure, Open Social Webs, and Self-Hosted Defences.
This one looks at the growing pressure on privacy tools, why VPN access matters, how open social webs are pushing back, and why self-hosting is becoming more important for everyday digital independence.
The more centralised the web becomes, the more valuable it is to build, host, read, share, and communicate through tools you can actually understand and control.
What are you doing to make your digital life more resilient?
