The Age of Advertising Must Come to an End - Advertisements are a scourge upon society, the environment, and ultimately ourselves. They are among the worst that capitalism has to offer. Why not get rid of them?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/Anticonsumption

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • SimpleLogin

    The SimpleLogin back-end and web app (by simple-login)

  • Start using a service like simplelogin.io every time a website asks you to make an account. That way, when (not if) they either sell your information or get hacked, you can delete that alias and not be subject to endless spam and junk mail.

  • Pi-hole

    A black hole for Internet advertisements

  • Install Pi-hole on a raspberry pi, an old computer, etc. for all of those non-browser based devices that harvest tons of personal data for advertisers.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • keepassxc

    KeePassXC is a cross-platform community-driven port of the Windows application “Keepass Password Safe”.

  • Combine that with a solid password manager (like KeePassXC for example) to keep all of your accounts separate. Never, ever use the same email/password for all of your accounts.

  • FreeTube

    An Open Source YouTube app for privacy

  • Things like FreeTube, or NewPipe are great options to combine that with adblocking/tracking too.
